[R18] My father is a pervert – “My Father Is a Pervert” Chapter 181 The Quasi-Queen [English]

Today is the first night of the royal hunt. The king will lead the men, following the tradition of the northern hunting people, to skin and disembowel the prey, distribute it, and select raw meat to cook in a large pot.This scene is too bloody and barbaric for ladies to participate, so the queen will arrange a separate banquet to entertain the distinguished female guests.

My participation in this event was carefully planned: in the past three days, I first had to avoid appearing at the same time as the king and his wife to prevent gossip; secondly, I tried not to meet Uther alone to avoid attracting gossip; so my only choice was the queen.

This is also the most difficult choice.Without Uther’s protection, I had to face Elizabeth alone, as well as a group of noble ladies who were hostile to me.When I followed the servants’ announcement and walked into the hall, I suddenly felt unkind eyes being cast on me from all directions.In front of men, women must pretend to be generous to me to highlight their kindness and virtue.And at this ladies-only banquet, their jealousy and malice towards me were nakedly exposed.No one paid any attention to me.I didn’t ask for trouble, so I found a place to sit down by myself.

After a while, the queen came belatedly following the announcement.After not seeing Elizabeth for more than a year, I feel that she is different from what I remembered. Her once flawless snowy skin is now a bit dull, as if she is intolerant of the northern soil and water. Looking closely, her skin has subtle lines, coupled with the subtle changes in her face, and the arrogance of her gestures, she looks complacent and no longer as gentle and easy-going as before.It seems that these days, she is getting more and more powerful and her life is going quite smoothly.

I believe that she was paying attention to me as soon as she entered the door, but she deliberately ignored me. She first met a few female guests who were close to her. They laughed and laughed for a while, and then she held the solemn ceremony of the mother of the country. As if she had just seen me, she greeted me softly: “The Countess of Troy is here too? Are you feeling better?”

I saluted her as I would a queen and replied in a polite manner.I hope she will go through the motions and let me go.But she obviously had her intentions and stretched out her hand to me, so I had no choice but to go over and kiss her hand, and she stayed by my side.

She used this to introduce me into her small circle.She, her confidant female officials, and several aristocratic ladies favored by her hugged each other, surrounding me in the middle.The other people in the hall knew that they were going to deal with me, and they all became excited, waiting to see this good show.

“I heard that you had trouble with the Marquise Russo a while ago?” Elizabeth asked me with concern: “What happened?”

Oh, the fact that the Marchioness and I fought over Luke spread throughout the upper class.She is embarrassing me in public now, isn’t it because she wants to tell others that I don’t like her?I am someone who is rejected by the queen. Isn’t it possible that anyone can step on me in the future?

Although I understood in my heart, due to my different status, I had to reply: “It’s all a misunderstanding. I don’t want to disturb you.”

“Since you misunderstood, please apologize to the Marquise.” Elizabeth smiled.

I was stunned.When did I say it was my fault?Even if it is really my fault, I am a dukedom personally conferred by the king, and yet I am expected to apologize in public to a lower-ranking marquis or lady?

The atmosphere became subtle, the onlookers were whispering to each other, and there was a deliberately low buzz around them.I hesitated for a while, but finally decided to endure the crotch humiliation for now and think about it in the long run.

Countess Rousseau is a member of the Queen’s small circle. Seeing the Queen suppressing me, her eyebrows were raised high and she couldn’t hide her happiness.I turned to her and apologized softly, but she snorted and made things difficult: “What did the Baroness say? The voice was too soft, I didn’t hear clearly.”

I swallowed my anger, raised my voice and said it again, but she took the opportunity to say something bitter before I finished.The Queen smiled softly: “It’s good that the misunderstanding has been resolved. Everyone should be more harmonious in the future. Your Excellency, Baroness, please accompany me at the dinner.”

There are not many rules at the ladies’ dinner. They do not dine together at a long table, but are a bit like a cocktail party. The ladies gather freely to sit or lie down together, and the servants serve delicious food and wine. No one can eat much, and the focus is on socializing.I don’t have many friends, so I wanted to wait until dinner was served and just say I wasn’t feeling well and get away. But now that I’m in the Queen’s hands, I have to play it by ear.

During the dinner, these people treated me like a clown, making sarcastic remarks and making fun of me.It’s hard to be bullied, but I have a different perspective and don’t take it too seriously. I just pretend to be a bereaved dog and keep a low profile to seek peace.In the eyes of others, this is another thought – I relied on the king’s favor to achieve great success, and how glorious it was, but now I have been kicked out of the palace, ridiculed and dare not speak out… On the contrary, the queen-to-be has been in the palace for two years, and her family’s power has also grown stronger, and she has the potential to threaten the palace. It can be seen that one moment is another moment.

The queen kept smiling, as if the siege against me was just harmless fun. After a long while, seeing that I remained obedient and silent, she thought I had been defeated, and then she said, “This is the tribute fruit from the south. Let’s try it.”

The others tacitly stopped attacking and began to talk about the rumors about the missing girl in the capital.I did not participate in their conversation, and kept my head lowered. It seemed that I had been wronged but did not dare to resist, which made Elizabeth very satisfied.She gently treated me to some food, exchanged a few words, and then smiled and said, “I heard that Leon is already on his way back to the royal capital.”

This sentence instantly set off a storm in my heart, and my expression suddenly changed. Fortunately, I kept my head hanging down and didn’t overreact, letting her find out the clues.

“Leon’s marriage has been decided. When he comes back this time, we should prepare for him. He is not young.” Elizabeth then smiled and said: “You have been brothers and sisters since childhood. When he comes back, I will invite you to the palace to help…”

My heart was racing and I was confused, but after hearing these words from her, I suddenly calmed down.

she is lying to me.

Compared to the scandals between me and Uther and Goya, the matter between me and Leon is well hidden. I’m not sure yet whether she knows about it.But I know one thing very clearly. Even if Leon is really found and comes back, he will never agree to get married because of his temper, and Uther is even less likely to let him get married immediately, which will intensify the conflict.

So, why did she deceive me?The dispute between Uther and Leon that night, as well as Leon’s departure, are all top secrets. I believe in Uther’s strength and determination, and he will never let such a secret that shakes the foundation of the country leak out.For more than a year, the outside world has believed that Leon and Goya went to the south to consolidate the situation and maintain unity.Now that Elizabeth and the southern power behind her are gradually growing, they still haven’t gotten married, and Elizabeth has never been able to get pregnant… Is Uther’s concession to Elizabeth during this period related to Leon’s disappearance?Did the Queen’s group notice the strangeness of Leon’s departure?Will Leon be in danger?!

My mind was in turmoil, but my appearance was completely intact. I lowered my head and accepted her words. She couldn’t see anything from me, so she smiled and ignored me.

Finally enduring it until the dinner was over, I went back to the room and asked Letty quietly.From Letty’s expression, you can tell that things are by no means simple.Since gods are fighting, it would be good if I don’t embarrass myself at my level and don’t get betrayed.

For the next two days, I put my tail between my legs and pretended to be dumbfounded, and finally got through these three days.I wanted to leave the palace immediately and go to her own mansion, but the queen probably thought that the humiliation to me was not enough, so she insisted on keeping me and let me continue to live in the palace.

I had already guessed that Uther was in a difficult situation, so I couldn’t go against Elizabeth’s wishes at this time, so I gritted my teeth and stayed.Elizabeth’s family is now the dominant one in the harem, and those she invites to stay and accompany her are all her accomplices. I, the black sheep, am among them and stand out. I have to be ignored every day, and I endure it silently.

Uther’s continued lack of response made Elizabeth more and more convinced that I had fallen out of favor.She no longer hides her contempt for me, not to mention her minions.I always felt that Elizabeth had some conspiracy behind her, so I tightened my guard.Soon, the invitation to the big dance came.
