Chapter 204 Princess Isa's Choice

"Arturo, here is an invitation letter from Yu Lan and Louisa."

"I heard that Belina is now preparing to choose a new queen from the two of them."

"Tell me, who should we go see?"

The planet that Yu Lan and Louisa were to govern was extremely close to the location of Prince Isa's Rose Star.

Given Princess Isabella's extensive experience on the border over the years, establishing diplomatic relations with her would essentially secure her position as the next queen.

Princess Isabella's choice is of paramount importance.

One is his own biological daughter, whom he did not raise from a young age, and he feels guilty about it.

One is a junior colleague whom I admire; she is intelligent and kind.

When asked the question, Arturo remained silent for a long time, which was uncharacteristic of him.

He remained silent, like a majestic, steady, and reliable mountain, accompanying Prince Isabella.

"No matter what, I will always support you."

Arturo understood that Isa had chosen to ask this question.

So you must have already made a decision, but you're just hesitant and unsure if your choice is right.

"You chose Yu Lan, didn't you?"

Arturo hit the nail on the head.

The woman with a gentle and elegant face nodded.

He showed a rare hint of apology.

"I'm sorry, I can't support our daughter Louisa."

“She,” Queen Isabella paused, “is not fit to be a queen.”

Tolerant, generous, kind, brave, and persevering.

She lacked all the basic qualities of an imperial queen.

Selfish, narrow-minded, hypocritical, even to the point of secretly killing their own compatriots, showing no mercy to their people.

Even if Louisa were his daughter, Duke Isabella would never support her becoming the next queen.

"I simply cannot imagine what kind of life the people of the empire will lead if Louisa becomes the next queen."

"If she really becomes queen, Yu Lan will probably be very sad."

The struggle for the throne has always been like this.

Just like her and Belina.

The victor accepts the crown, while the loser can only go elsewhere.

Arturo reached out and hugged Princess Isabella, patting her shoulder reassuringly. Years of experience had tempered his already strong and powerful physique, making him even more mature and generous, giving people a strong sense of security.

"sorry."

Princess Isabella leaned against Arturo's chest. "Yu Lan is more suited to sit in the Queen's seat than Louisa."

"Her talents can be unleashed to a greater extent on the central star."

“Remote star systems will only bury her.”

"As a prince of the empire, I must make the right choice."

Even if Luisa is her and Arturo's daughter, for the sake of the Empire!
“It’s alright, Isa. I also believe that Yu Lan will lead the empire to glory.”

"She is intelligent and decisive, and may be able to achieve what we have wanted to do but have not been able to."

Not everyone is as selfish as Belina.

There will always be someone who makes the right choice for the future of the empire.

But in the darkness, there is a divine will.

Looking back years later, you'll realize that this decision couldn't have been better.

half an hour later
The starship ascended from Rose Star and headed straight for White Sand Star.

The closer they got to Baisha Star, the more they thought about seeing Yu Lan's bright and beautiful face again soon.

For some reason, a rare feeling of tension, fear, and excitement rose in Queen Isabella's heart.

And at this time

The news that Queen Isabella was about to arrive on White Sand Star spread throughout the entire planet at breakneck speed.

In the border system, the name of Queen Isabella is known to all.

Since arriving in her territory, she has transformed the once impoverished and desolate wasteland into the Rose Star it is today, step by step.

The greatest dream of all the inhabitants of the Border Galaxy is to become subjects of Queen Isabella.

At this moment, the group of people on White Sand Star who had already gone all out and were preparing to defect with the planet were completely dumbfounded.

"Are you sure Princess Isa came to our White Sand Star, and not Eastern Spirit Star!"

Dongling Star is the planet that Louisa has been chosen to govern.

When this news spread, everyone on White Sand Star was incredibly envious.

As Louisa is the daughter of Prince Isabella, Prince Isabella would find a way to help her become the next queen, no matter what.

But
To everyone's surprise, Princess Isabella has chosen to side with reason rather than with her own family.

The man who brought the news was also filled with disbelief, and he slapped his thigh:
"Why would I lie to you? Go to the starport now, the starship should be here soon."

at this time
Baisha Xingxing Port

Upon receiving the news, Yu Lan quickly led Yu Wenzhou and the staff of Xingchang Mansion to Xinggang to welcome Princess Isabella's arrival.

When she saw the starship slowly appear in front of her, Yu Lan nervously gripped Yu Wenzhou's hand tightly.

"She really came."

"I never expected this."

This is such an unbelievable thing.

Does Princess Isabella not know what her presence here signifies?

But she still showed up without hesitation.

How selfless, tolerant and loving!

No wonder she was the next queen that the entire empire's people hoped for.

And at this time

On the starship
Through the transparent glass, Princess Isabella also saw Yu Lan's familiar and exquisitely beautiful face.

Such stunning beauty is like the sun rising slowly in the darkness.

She only needs to stand there, without doing anything, to attract everyone's attention.

At this moment, Yu Lan below seemed to notice the gaze of Duke Isabella on the starship.

Suddenly looked up
He stretched out his hand and waved it forcefully towards the sky.

A strange impulse welled up inside me.

Almost instinctively, Princess Isabella also raised her hand and waved at Yu Lan.

It wasn't until Arturo looked at her with surprise that she realized the starship had a special anti-spy device, so no matter what she did inside the starship, Yu Lan couldn't see her.

“Arturo,” Princess Isabella said abruptly, her eyes lowered.

"For some reason, sometimes I really doubt that Louisa is my daughter."

in her vision.

Her daughter should be like Yu Lan.

She doesn't necessarily have to be beautiful, but she should have a kind heart that is more precious than gold.

Why did Louisa become like this?

Was he corrupted by Belina, or is this just his nature?

Subconsciously, Princess Isabella suddenly thought of that chaotic production day from back then.

The forces of the Dark Planet launch a surprise attack on the Central Star. Arturo fights back, and both she and Belina are so frightened that they give birth prematurely.

“Arturo,” Isa gripped Arturo’s arm tightly, her face showing a hint of apprehension.

"Do you think something unexpected might have happened back then?"

"Isa."

Arturo hugged Princess Isabella tightly and comforted her:

“You saw that Louisa was delivered by the chief physician himself.”

"The chief physician is a highly respected elder; there won't be any problems."

"Is there really no problem?"

"Can't a highly respected physician make mistakes?"

Isa murmured softly, still unable to give up.

Otherwise, why would she find it so hard to suppress the strong urge to hug Yu Lan every time she saw him?

It was like seeing a child I had felt guilty about for too long.

I didn't know what to say, so I just held her tightly, forcefully, and desperately.

She wanted to present the whole world to her.

This is the call of kinship in our blood, enduring and indelible.

Arturo lowered his eyes and suddenly spoke:

"Then let's send someone to investigate." "I'll send someone to investigate right now."

Even though eighteen years have passed, and no matter how difficult it may be, they are determined to get the truth.

What exactly is going on between Yu Lan and Louisa?

Could she be their daughter?
*
"Queen Isa, it's a pleasure to see you again."

Upon seeing Queen Isabella and Marshal Arturo disembark from the starship in the distance, Yu Lan hurriedly went to greet them.

She reached out her hands, and in the next instant, Duke Isabella eagerly grasped them.

"Lanlan, it's a pleasure to meet you too."

"Can I help you with anything?"

Yu Lan paused for a moment, not expecting that Queen Isabella would be so proactive.

A hint of embarrassment flashed across her face, and she quickly nodded:

"It's true."

"Is it convenient to talk while we walk?"

"I will be hosting a welcome banquet at the Star Lord's Mansion tonight, and I may need Princess Isabella's help then."

"my pleasure."

The moment Yu Lan finished speaking, Queen Isabella nodded in agreement.

She hadn't even started asking Yu Lan what she needed help with.

She simply wanted to satisfy her.

Agree to all her conditions.

At this point, a considerable amount of time had passed since the last divination performed on the main star.

Queen Elizabeth thought she had almost forgotten what Yu Lan looked like, as well as that inexplicable feeling welling up from the bottom of her heart.

But upon seeing him again, she was shocked to realize that she had never forgotten every single moment she had spent with Yu Lan.

At this moment, he stared intently at Yu Lan without blinking.

Seeing this, Yu Lan even turned her head slightly embarrassed and secretly asked Yu Wenzhou:
"Is there anything strange on my face? Why is Princess Isabella staring at me like that?"

Yu Wenzhou, who knew from Shen Zhuoran's guess that Yu Lan's background might be problematic, shook his head.

"It's nothing, the mistress looks beautiful today."

"Perhaps Princess Isabella just wants to see more."

"Narcissism."

Yu Lan gave a light reproach and turned to look apologetically at Princess Isa. "Princess Isa, Marshal Arturo, this way please."

Meanwhile, Yu Lan was busy entertaining Duke Isa and preparing for the establishment of diplomatic relations between White Sand Star and Rose Star.

And at this time

other side

Donglingxing

When Louisa, full of anticipation and confidence, received news that Duke Isa had gone to White Sand Star, she was completely enraged.

"Oh!"

An expensive glass was smashed heavily on the ground.

"You mean, Princess Isa abandoned her own daughter and went to find Yu Lan, who has no relation to her at all?"

"Even Yu Lan is still my competitor!"

"Did you actually deliver the invitation to Princess Isabella?"

"Does she not know that I've come to Dongling Star?"

Louisa simply couldn't believe that anyone would be so selfless as to not help their own daughter.

When she drew lots and discovered that the territory of Duke Isa was near Dongling Star, heaven knows how happy she was.

Princess Isabella was renowned on the border, with thousands following her.

If she wanted to govern Dongling Star well and make them submit and obey, it would only take a word from Queen Isabella.

What can Yu Lan use to compete with her?

She had all the advantages of timing and location.

Louisa even believed that the throne had already fallen into her hands.

How could this be!
How could Princess Isabella treat her like this?

She never believed it.

Louisa stared furiously at the kneeling guard in front of her, her chest heaving with rage.

The guards kneeling on the ground were equally panicked.

Duke Isabella's reluctance to see Princess Louisa is not something he can question.

"Your Highness Louisa, this is absolutely true."

"Your invitation and Princess Yu Lan's invitation were sent at the same time, but we really don't know why Princess Isa chose to go to White Sand Star."

If he had known, he wouldn't be working as an ordinary guard here now.

The guard's anxious expression was genuine.

Louisa was such a smart person that she could tell at a glance that he was absolutely not lying.

But the more this happened, the more resentful she became.

Why, why did you do this to her?

Why is everyone siding with Yu Lan?

No, that's not right.

There is another person.

There was another person who stood behind her the whole time.

"You go down first."

Louisa waved for the guards to leave.

He watched coldly as the palace gates were tightly closed before taking out his communicator.

A phone call went directly to Belina.

"Mother, what should we do?"

“Queen Isabella is biased towards Yu Lan. I sent her an invitation but she ignored it. Now she has arrived on White Sand Star.”

"what should I do?"

As Louisa spoke, her eyes were fixed on Belina.

I held my breath, my heart pounding.

She had already learned the truth about some things through Bellina's long-standing favoritism.

When she was weaker than Yu Lan, Bellina's so-called fair competition was actually a favoritism towards her.

Aside from blood ties, Louisa couldn't understand why Belina would do such a thing.

as expected
As Louisa's voice faded, Belina's expression changed instantly.

"What did you say? Isa went to find Yu Lan."

"How could she possibly go to Yu Lan?"

"No, impossible, absolutely impossible..."

Belina's expression kept changing.

She has dealt with everything that needed to be dealt with back then, and Isha could never possibly know the truth.

Is Isabella really that selfless?
She actually ended up helping her own biological daughter by accident.

Belina gritted her teeth, her mind racing in that instant, and she made her decision.

After looking up again, her expression returned to calm, and she once again became the high and mighty Queen of the Empire.

"Don't worry, you should focus on managing and governing Dongling Star now."

"Ignore the rest."

"Mother will handle everything."

Thump, thump, thump thump thump.

The message hidden in Belina's voice was both tense and exciting.

Does "handling everything" mean dealing with Yu Lan?

The throne truly belongs to her.

Louisa could no longer hold back and whispered, "..."
"You are my mother, aren't you?"

Belina didn't mean Louisa could perceive the truth; she neither shook her head nor nodded, but simply said:
“I have always been your mother.”

And at this time

Central Star

Arturo's men arrived at the doorstep of the great physician who had delivered Isa years ago.

Okay, now the backstory is about to be revealed, including the truth about the throne eighteen years ago. After solving the Dark Planet issue, it should be almost finished.
