The eldest prince walked towards his palace, but halfway there he suddenly stopped and turned to walk in another direction.

The further they walked, the more remote the place became, until they reached a corner where a small palace appeared before them. This was the Eighth Prince's bedroom.

Upon entering the Eighth Prince's palace, the First Prince frowned. Apart from two servants standing outside, he didn't see a single servant inside the palace.

After walking a few steps, the eldest prince saw the eighth prince, who was tending to the flowers and plants in the courtyard.

"Leicester, what are you doing? This is the servants' job. Why are you doing this?" the First Prince said.

Upon hearing the sound, the Eighth Prince stood up, turned around, and said with delight.

"Big brother, what brings you here?"

"You haven't answered my question yet."

"Oh, brother, you don't understand. These flowers and plants are meant to be cared for by yourself. You have to trim them little by little into the shapes you like. That's what makes it fun."

Listening to the Eighth Prince's sophistry, the First Prince shook his head and said nothing more.

"Leicester, where are your palace servants? I haven't seen a single insect," the First Prince asked.

"There are some events going on in the streets today, and my palace servants are very interested, so I gave them half a day off to go and have some fun," the Eighth Prince said.

The eldest prince frowned even more deeply.

"Leicester, you want to be good to your servants, but this isn't the way to do it. If you continue like this, they won't respect you. I've heard that the servants in your palace are always running around and don't stay by your side, their master. Isn't that all because you've let them run wild?"

"I don't care anymore. It's fine if they don't follow me. I quite like being alone. Hey, brother, let's not talk about this anymore. Come in and sit for a while."

The Eighth Prince led the First Prince into the room, and after they sat down, the Eighth Prince asked...

"Brother, what brings you here today?"

"Nothing much, I just wanted to come and see you. Also, thank you for Franz's matter, thanks to your help," the eldest prince said.

The announcement of the Eighth Prince's marriage at that time was naturally intended to overshadow the Crown Prince's scandal.

It's obvious to anyone with eyes that this matter is serious, and the Eighth Prince was implicated as a result.

When other insects announce their marriages, the internet is filled with blessings.

When the Eighth Prince announced his marriage at that time, he was met with a lot of criticism. Some people said that he was deliberately diverting public attention, and others maliciously speculated that the marriage announcement might be fake and fabricated.

"There's no need to thank me. We're all in the same boat. My marriage announcement was going to be made sooner or later anyway, and this announcement will also help the Crown Prince. It's great," the Eighth Prince said with a smile.

Seeing the Eighth Prince's carefree smile, the First Prince felt a greater liking for him and thought he could take better care of his younger brother.

There are enemy insects outside who are eyeing the crown prince's position, so it would be good for them to have another helper.

"Leicester, your female father is very grateful to you for this, so he specifically spoke with your male father that after you get married, your royal status will not be revoked, and all the corresponding benefits will be retained," the eldest prince said.

According to the laws of the Zerg, royal females must relinquish their royal status after marriage.

This was done to limit the size of the royal family and prevent families that married royal females from developing ambitions to use the next generation to compete for the throne.

Secondly, it was to alleviate the financial burden on the royal family.

Every member of the royal family enjoys corresponding treatment and privileges.

Take the annuity, one of the benefits, for example. Even the least favored female insect prince can receive at least 1.5 million star coins a year, and it's tax-free.

Each generation of insect queens will have no shortage of female insects in their palace, and correspondingly, no shortage of princes.

If these privileges continue, it will be a considerable burden even for the royal family.

Therefore, the female insect princes have their status and privileges revoked after marriage, which is also a way to reduce the burden on the royal family.

Of course, this is not absolute. If a female insect prince is particularly favored, or if there are any special circumstances, with the special approval of the insect king and queen, her status and privileges may not be revoked after marriage. For example, the eldest prince's status and privileges were not revoked after marriage.

In fact, the Queen had thought for a long time about whether or not to use this condition to win over the Eighth Prince.

However, considering that the Eighth Prince had little power in the palace and was married to a commoner who was easy to control, the Queen decided to help the Eighth Prince retain his royal status and get him to stand on their side.

"Really? Thank you so much, Your Majesty the Queen, and thank you also, Brother."

Lester laughed from the bottom of his heart; after all, those benefits were a considerable fortune.

"By the way, how are your wedding preparations with Lord Song Mo going?" the eldest prince asked.

"It's still in preparation. His Excellency Song Mo said he wants the wedding to be broadcast live, so he hopes it will be as lavish as possible, which means it will take more time."

The eldest prince made no comment on this; his impression of Song Mo was so-so.

"Leicester, I haven't asked you yet. How did you come up with the idea of ​​contacting Lord Song Mo? When I heard about it from Rhine, it really startled me."

To date, there has never been a precedent of a member of the royal family marrying a commoner. Leicester can be considered the first, so when the eldest prince heard about it, he couldn't believe it.

"Brother, male insects are all the same. What's the difference between marrying a nobleman and marrying a commoner? Besides, Lord Song Mo is quite good. Otherwise, he wouldn't have caught the eye of Senior Rhine in the first place."

Speaking of this, the eldest prince couldn't help but glare at the eighth prince.

"Honestly, of all the male insects you could have chosen, you had to pick the one Rhine chose. If Rhine had made a fuss with you back then, I don't know what I would have done."

"Oh, big brother, you've wronged me. I really didn't want to compete with Senior Rhine. I admire Senior Rhine a lot. I just wanted to join them. I genuinely wanted to be in the same group as Senior Rhine. Who knew that Senior Rhine would be so obsessed with the position of Queen?"

"Alright, what's past is past. From now on, you should keep a close eye on Lord Song Mo and make sure he doesn't linger around Rhine and his powerful lord anymore," the First Prince said.

The fact that Lu Yuan and Song Mo fought was not deliberately concealed, so everyone who needed to know knew.

"I understand, elder brother. By the way, at the last banquet, I saw that Senior Rhine seemed to be really good to his current male master. Is Senior Rhine really prepared to live with a D-level male like this?" the Eighth Prince asked.

"Yes, I think he's made up his mind," the eldest prince replied.

"Oh, that's a real shame," the Eighth Prince muttered to himself.
