    Chapter 7 His Royal Highness the Prince

    I was prepared to be beaten severely, but when I chickened out and went to revive the queen, the queen not only did not punish me, but let me go easily.

    This abnormal situation made my hair stand on end, fearing that she would think of another way to kill me.I was worried for a long time, and then I felt at ease after getting the news from other maids.

    It turns out that His Majesty the King came here today and said he would come to the Queen’s bedroom in the evening.

    After a long drought comes rain, no wonder Igland has no time to embarrass me anymore. The more serious thing is to study how to seduce the king tonight.Thinking of the way my stepfather looked at me by the fountain last night, I couldn’t help but shudder again.I wonder if he will look at Igraine with the same eyes?

    “Why did the king come suddenly?” I asked curiously.

    “I don’t know, the queen was losing her temper, and suddenly the king came in.” The maid next to me answered me: “The king said that the queen is always unhappy because there are too few people serving her. He asked the queen to call us all in. We thought we would be scolded, but the king didn’t say anything, just said that he would arrange for more maids to come…”

    When I heard that my stepfather had called the maid in, I felt guilty and interrupted: “Has the Queen mentioned me to His Majesty the King?”

    I was relieved when I saw the maid shaking her head.Logically speaking, there should be 12 maids for the queen’s wedding, and I was the extra number 13.I think even Igland has forgotten that I am included among the maids.

    “Then the king was about to leave, and the queen asked him if he would come in the evening.” The maid said with a bad smile, “The king looked back at the queen for a while, and then said he would come in the evening.”

    In this case, I don’t need to worry about Gan Chai Lie Huo.

    I had a good meal and escaped a beating, so I felt quite satisfied.After sending the chicken to the kitchen, I went back and had a good sleep.

    Early the next morning, the maids stood in front of the queen’s chamber as usual.However, it was not Igraine who walked out of the room, but His Majesty the King.

    The expressions of the maids all became rosy, and each of them cast their warm eyes on him.I grew up in the palace, and I know very well the thoughts of the women in the palace. It is not shameful to be the mistress of the king or a noble, but it is an honor.I lowered my head in disdain and drew a clear line with them.

    His Majesty’s footsteps were crisp and clear, and he obviously didn’t notice these maidens.This didn’t seem to fit with the he I met that night… I lowered my head as much as possible to hide my face.Even though I’ve put on a good disguise now, it’s not a fault to be careful.

    Maybe it was my misunderstanding, but the king’s footsteps slowed down in front of me. Before I had time to think about it, he walked over.Strided away.

    As soon as the King left, the maids walked into the bedroom.We lowly maids still have to stand outside the door and wait.After a while, the maids withdrew and stood up again, with ambiguous smiles on their faces.

    Listening to the sounds of her quietly chatting, it seems that Igland was tortured enough last night. It is said that there are traces of joy on the chair, floor, and bed, and Igland was probably knocked unconscious and lying on the big bed in a mess…

    I was speechless.The way the king left just now didn’t look like someone who had fought all night long. This king’s physical strength was so good that he was able to knock Igraine unconscious…

    In the eyes of the maids, the king was even more majestic, and they whispered to each other.And I had already mastered the skill of dozing while standing, waking up and sleeping, sleeping and waking up. I stood there until noon when I heard a sound coming from the bedroom.

    I hurriedly braced myself for the difficult questions the Queen might throw at me today.After a while, Igland came out. Today she is no longer as arrogant and irritable as before, and even her pace has slowed down a lot.

    Sure enough, women who have been nourished are different.

    When she came to me, she paused and said: “My silk nightgown is stained. I heard that there is a woman in the city who can make a concoction that can clean high-quality fabrics without damaging the texture. Go and find out where she lives and get some back.”

    Her tone was not as sharp as usual, but a little lazy, and seemed to be a little happy.I was secretly amused and nodded in agreement.Watch her go away.

    After she left, I quickly took a few bites of bread and went out to run errands. It was already afternoon. Although I was not told to finish it today, if I delayed it until tomorrow, maybe something would happen to the moody queen.

    I first went to the laundry worker to get information.After hearing this, the female worker took out a small jar of concoction and handed it to me.

    “That mother-in-law lives in the lower city. If you go now, you won’t be able to come back before the castle bridge is raised.” The aunt said with a smile: “I still have some here, you can use it first.”

    I was so pleasantly surprised that I quickly thanked my aunt and walked back happily holding the small jar.I’ve been living quite smoothly these past few days, I’ve had a few good meals, and the Queen’s many difficulties have gone away.And today’s work was easily completed.Makes my temperament particularly relaxed.Seeing that it was still early, there was no need to go back immediately to see the queen’s face.Then I suddenly remembered that there was a lush tree in the backyard of the castle. It was in the flowering season, and the tree was full of flowers, which was really beautiful.I always come and go in a hurry and don’t have time to stop and watch. Now that I have the opportunity, I simply went over to take a look.

    With this thought in mind, I skipped towards the back courtyard. As I passed the west atrium, the sight I saw inadvertently made me stop in my tracks.

    In the courtyard, a blond boy clenched his sword and roared as he attacked the tall young man in front of him.This man only wore ordinary clothes and no armor. He held a sword in one hand and waved it seemingly lightly, but he easily blocked the young man’s attack like a torrential rain.He only focused on defense. When he kept blocking the young man’s sword, he still had the energy to speak:

    “Pay attention to the center of gravity. The arms are not the whole point of the attack. The knees and steps are the key points.” Compared to the angry roar of the young man, the man’s voice was smooth and soft, which was like a breath of fresh air: “Calm down, Your Highness, stay calm. The attack is not just about chopping with the sword. Your steps have been messed up. In battle, this means failure.”

    When I heard he say the word “Your Highness”, I suddenly remembered that this blond boy was not the prince of Gomorrah, my cheap brother Leon.

    “Shut up!” Leon roared, slashing with all his strength with his long sword.At this moment, the man moved suddenly and violently. He raised his hand to catch Leon’s sword, turned sideways, stretched out his leg and tripped under Leon’s feet. Leon suddenly lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground.Anger burned in He’s eyes, and he immediately turned over and tried to get up and continue fighting, but the sharp sword tip was already in front of He’s throat.
