After hearing Rhine's words, the Crown Prince immediately felt that his head didn't hurt so much anymore.

Regarding the matter of lower-ranking male insects appeasing higher-ranking female insects, the royal family was actually subtly on Professor Samuel's side.

After all, if this research could be promoted throughout the empire, it would benefit the empire and save the lives of many high-level female insects. You must know that high-level female insects are the empire's main fighting force.

However, the combined power of the Xiongbao Association and some nobles was too great, and the royal family could not openly oppose their actions of splashing dirty water.

However, the royal family also intervened in secret several times, blocking several assassination attempts against Professor Samuel and his group. Otherwise, it would have been very difficult for Professor Samuel and his group to survive until now with just one insect like Rhine.

The royal family's thinking was that as long as Professor Samuel and his colleagues were alive, there would always be a chance to turn things around over time.

Now that Rhine is willing to step forward to protect Professor Samuel and his group, the royal family is naturally more than happy to do so.

The eldest prince readily agreed to the matter.

......

Lu Yuan was unaware that others were sitting at home while a title fell from the sky.

After Rhine returned to his post, Lu Yuan returned to work as usual.

At the same time, Lu Yuan sighed inwardly, thinking that with the frequency and length of his leave requests, it was fortunate that he worked in his family's company, otherwise he would have been fired and become unemployed long ago.

It's nothing like it is now, where no matter how creatively you ask for leave, your salary is still deposited into your account on time without missing a single penny.

Then Lu Yuan thought about it in a more divergent way. He realized that the bulk of his monthly income came from his salary at the foundation and the mining company, both of which were funded by Rhine.

So, in the end, most of his money actually came from Rhine.

So he's still living off Rhine's money.

The image of himself desperately eating a large bowl of white rice, with the words "Rhine" written on the bowl, sent a shiver down Lu Yuan's spine.

Lu Yuan wondered if he was being too useless. Other people who transmigrated were making a name for themselves in other worlds, easily acquiring titles like the richest man. But he had been living off his wife all along.

Shouldn't I stand up for myself a bit? It's not good to keep leeching off my female partner like this.

However, this thought only existed in Lu Yuan's mind for three seconds before he abandoned it.

Lu Yuan thought to himself, "Forget it. I've never been one to have much ambition. I'm content with my current life and I don't want to change it for the sake of saving face."

So what if you're a kept man? As long as you don't force yourself on him.

Besides, the man who's living off his wife is a handsome guy with both good looks and a great physique. Before he transmigrated, very few people could afford to be a kept man like that.

Having come to terms with it, Lu Yuan went to work happily again.

When the fake Lu Yuan A was impersonating Lu Yuan, he did some of the company's work for Lu Yuan, but there was one thing he couldn't do for Lu Yuan: visit the children in the orphanage at the mine, for fear of bringing danger to the mine.

By this calculation, Lu Yuan hasn't visited the children for several months.

So after finishing up some things at hand, Lu Yuan took some time to stroll over to the mine.

When Lu arrived, it was just the time for the children to start class. He randomly picked a classroom and stood outside the window to observe the situation inside.

The classroom that Lu Yuan chose happened to be where Lynn and the others were. The teacher who was giving the lesson was a retired female soldier recommended by Rhine. She was explaining fighting techniques to the children in the audience.

The children were no longer drowsy during basic lessons; they were all sitting upright in their chairs, their eyes wide open and bright, listening intently.

Those little faces all looked extremely serious, but upon closer inspection, they were actually quite cute.

When the teacher asked questions, the children in the audience actively raised their hands, and the class was very effective.

Lu Yuan shook his head and sighed as he watched from outside the window. "There's nothing we can do about it. It's just human nature. The saying that female insects are born warriors is no joke. Even the female insect larvae are clearly more interested in these combat techniques."

Even after the bell rang, the children lingered around the teacher, reluctant to leave, asking questions.

Five minutes later, the teacher finally broke through the crowd and walked out of the classroom.

As the teacher walked out of the classroom, she saw Lu Yuan standing outside. She greeted Lu Yuan before leaving.

Then, the children in the classroom noticed Lu Yuan and came out to greet him.

Because Lynn was more familiar with Lu Yuan, he stayed and talked to Lu Yuan for a while, while Ace, Aman, and Isher waited quietly to the side.

"Lord Lu Yuan, why haven't you come to see us in so long?" Lynn asked in a childish voice.

Lu Yuan patted Lin En's head and said, "I couldn't come because I had some things to take care of at home. Now that I've finished, I came to see you all as soon as possible. I noticed you were very attentive in class. Do you really enjoy this kind of course?"

Lynn nodded heavily and said, "Yes, I like it very much. The teacher said that Ace and the others have great potential to become female soldiers. The four of us have already discussed it and decided that we will go to military school together in the future. We need to start saving tuition fees now."

"Oh, I see. You guys are really great. You know what you want to do when you're so young. Keep working hard towards your goals!"

After saying that, Lu Yuan ruffled Lynn's hair again to encourage him. He also ruffled Ace, Aman, and Isher who were standing next to him.

All four children showed shy smiles.

After exchanging a few more casual words, the four children said goodbye to Lu Yuan and left. Watching their bouncy little figures, a thoughtful look appeared in Lu Yuan's eyes.

Lu Yuan then went to find the retired female teacher who had previously taught the children to learn about Ace and the others.

The teacher told Lu Yuan that Ace, Aman, and Iser were indeed very talented, and that there were more than a dozen other children in this group who also had the talent to be female soldiers.

The teacher also regretfully said that having talent does not mean that these children can get into military academies. Even if they can get in, the tuition fees are a difficult hurdle for these children from orphanages.

Other military academies in the Empire are out of the question; only the Coranville Military Academy is worth a try, but even that is difficult for these kids who have to earn their own tuition.

After talking with the teacher, Lu Yuan had an idea: he wanted to sponsor the tuition fees of talented children who were admitted to military academies. Of course, Lu Yuan wouldn't just give out his kindness indiscriminately; there were still restrictions on this sponsorship.

For example, this military academy is limited to Coranville Military Academy; he cannot afford to fund other military academies.

In addition, this aid is not free money; it must be repaid once the child is able to earn money. Furthermore, the child who receives the aid must work for the 10th Army Group to pay off the debt to their family's Rhineland.
