Tiandou Palace, Prince's Study Room.

Xue Qinghe was sitting on a chair, with his hands and fingers crossed on the table, listening to the reports of his consultants on their work in the past few days.

As the crown prince of the Tiandou Empire and the successor whom the current Emperor Tiandou is cultivating, Xue Qinghe naturally has his own team responsible for handling various tasks assigned to him by Xue Ye now.

Just when the consultants were reporting on their work status and the work progress of those ministers, the cheerful and slightly excited footsteps outside the door made them shut their mouths in unison.

Within the palace, there was only one person with such footsteps.

Sure enough, the footsteps soon stopped at the door, followed by several knocks on the door and a clear and cheerful girl's voice:

"Brother, are you busy?"

Several consultants glanced at each other quickly, and then all looked at Xue Qinghe on the seat without saying a word.

Faced with the inquiries from his subordinates, Xue Qinghe nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, that's it for today. Please step back first."

Several consultants nodded, bowed, and stepped back to leave.

"Hello, Your Highness Princess!"

"Hello everyone! Thank you for your hard work!"

"Your Royal Highness, you are welcome. This is what we should do. How can contributing one's meager efforts to the royal family be regarded as hard work?"

After a brief exchange of greetings, Xue Ke said goodbye to the royal advisers and tiptoed into Xue Qinghe's study, with a little worry and doubt on his face:

"Brother...did I disturb you from your father's task..."

Standing up from his seat, Xue Qinghe walked up to Xue Ke, smiled and pinched her chubby little face with some baby fat, and said: "Anyway, things have been arranged a long time ago. From now on,

This time they just came to me to report on their work progress, nothing important, and the report was almost finished."

"Tell me, what does our lovely little sister want to do with big brother? Is it fun to go out to the city today?"

"It's fun!" The smile on Xue Ke's face was pure and bright.

"Brother, you don't know, the wild flowers outside the city are all growing so well... so casually, much prettier than the regular flowers and plants growing in the palace!"

"Yeah, that's really good." Xue Qinghe agreed with a smile.

"By the way, brother! Guess who I brought to you?"

Looking at his sister's proud and proud expression, Xue Qinghe always felt that she was begging him to praise her.

"Who?"

"Hehe~"

Xue Ke grinned, then turned around, put his hands around his lips and shouted to the door: "Archbishop! Come in quickly!"

archbishop?

Before Xue Qinghe could be confused for a long time, the man who walked in outside the door with a half-smiling expression let him know who the archbishop the younger sister was talking about was referring to.

"Your Excellency Fan Yun, I haven't seen you for a while, maybe I should call you Cardinal Fan now." Xue Qinghe said.

Xue Qinghe's words made Fan Yun smile and wave his hands: "These are just titles. Your Highness the Prince can do whatever you want."

"Okay, I'll still call you Sir Fan Yun from now on."

As one of the important places where he handles various affairs, Xue Qinghe's study room naturally receives people from all walks of life, so it also has tables and chairs for entertaining guests.

After inviting Fan Yun to sit down, Xue Qinghe rubbed Xue Ke's little head and asked: "How did you pull His Excellency Fan Yun over? I don't even know when Your Excellency Fan Yun came back."

"Hehe~" Xue Ke smiled and stuck out his tongue, briefly explaining that he met Fan Yun by chance on the street. Knowing that Xue Qinghe valued and cared about Fan Yun, he invited him over.

After explaining all this, Xue Ke suddenly asked curiously:

"Brother, I remember Fan Yun... isn't your Excellency the archbishop? Why do you call him... um... cardinal?"

Smiling and glancing at Fan Yun who was sitting next to him with a smile on his face, Xue Qinghe explained to his little sister: "His Excellency Fan Yun is the Cardinal of Wuhun Hall, and the Cardinal is also called the Cardinal Archbishop, so in fact, regardless of whether

You can call me Cardinal or Archbishop."

Then pinching Xue Ke's nose, Xue Qinghe asked in a somewhat "ferocious" manner: "I remember, shouldn't these be what the teacher taught in class? Didn't you pay attention to the class again!?"

Sensing that something was wrong, Xue Ke immediately turned his head, shook off Xue Qinghe's hand on his nose, and then quickly escaped from this land of right and wrong with a smile, saying as he walked:

"I'll withdraw first. Brother, you guys can chat slowly!"

Seeing his little sister's leaving figure, Xue Qinghe smiled and shook his head, took a few steps forward and closed the open study door, and then sat opposite Fan Yun.

At this moment, there were only two people, Xue Qinghe and Fan Yun, in the huge study room.

"Your Highness really likes this sister of his." Looking at the "ordinary-faced" young man opposite, Fan Yun said with a smile.

Xue Qinghe glanced at Fan Yun, and then said: "After all, I only have this one sister. Xiaoke, she didn't cause you any trouble by bringing you here, right?"

'Actually, I don't like you because you hurt my best friend Ye Lingling. But my brother values ​​you very much, so don't worry, I won't make trouble unreasonably, and I will try not to hate you.'

"No, no, Princess Xue Ke... she is very cute... she is a very reasonable little girl." Fan Yun responded, remembering the scene on the carriage when he came to the palace.

"That's good." Xue Qinghe said.

"I have received what you gave me through Archbishop Saras, and Mr. Fan would like to thank His Highness for his kindness."

"No need to thank me." Xue Qinghe shook his head, "Fan Yun, there are only two of us in the study now, so we can actually speak more openly."

"Two? Your Highness, are you sure?" Fan Yun looked at Xue Qinghe opposite with strange eyes.

"Meow~" There was also a big black cat squatting next to Fan Yun in response.

Xue Qinghe was silent when he saw the big dark cat suddenly emerging from Fan Yun's shadow. Then he raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Fan Yun who was smiling but not smiling. Although what he just said was actually correct, this cat suddenly appeared.

The big cat always makes Xue Qinghe feel that Fan Yun did it on purpose...

"cough!"

Xue Qinghe coughed, then looked at Fan Yun with a frown, and asked with a tone of doubt and curiosity, curiosity and seriousness:

"Actually, I'm very curious. I think I've been hiding very well over the years and have never revealed my identity. But we only met once. How did you figure out my true identity? Was there something wrong with my hiding?

?”

Ever since the Elder's Palace notified Xue Qinghe that his identity was discovered by Fan Yun through secret channels, Xue Qinghe has been puzzled and even suspected that he was clearly well hidden, so how could he be discovered? Is there something wrong?

?Will other people discover their true identity?

Xue Qinghe has actually been thinking and worrying about this kind of thing during this period, and even secretly began to test the people around him.

"Your Highness, don't worry. Your Highness's identity is well hidden. I can see it only because my eyes are special."

Fan Yun said this as he tapped his eyebrow bone with one finger.

"is that so……"

Fan Yun's answer made Xue Qinghe feel relieved, and at the same time, it silently improved this man's status in his mind again.

"This is for you."

Xue Qinghe stood up and walked to the desk, took out a document from the cabinet and put it in front of Fan Yun, Xue Qinghe said.

"What is this?" Fan Yun asked, stroking the big cat's head on his lap.

"This is the battle arrangement for the Tiandou division of the Soul Master Competition. Take a look and see if there is anything that needs to be adjusted."
