Hearing the commotion outside, Xie Yunzhou knew that he had to leave. His eyes were filled with reluctance.
He reached out and caressed the girl’s cheek. “Have a good rest. 1’11 protect you.”
Shi Xi nodded obediently. “I’m relieved to know that you’re by my side.”
With a familiar person by her side in this huge palace cage, the uneasiness in Shi Xi’s heart calmed down a lot.
Even at night, she no longer had nightmares.
Shi Xi slept until the sun was shining brightly when she was woken up by Sena.
“Princess Consort, Princess Consort, wake up.”
Shi Xi moaned, her voice soft and coy. “What’s wrong?”
“The Queen has invited you to the garden to enjoy the flowers. The First Prince will also be there. You should get up and wash up,” Sena said respectfully.
“No.” Shi Xi covered her head with the blanket and rejected her directly.
The corner of Sena’s eyes twitched.
That was the Queen!
“Princess, you should wake up. The Queen is already waiting for you,” said Sena.
“Then let her wait.” Shi Xi covered her ears.
Sena shouted at the bedside for more than ten minutes.
Shi Xi finally woke up.
“Let’s make this clear first. After meeting that person, don’t wake me up when I come back to catch up on my sleep.” Shi Xi’s eyes were hazy.
“Alright, Princess Consort.”
Shi Xi washed up stiffly and asked Sena to do her makeup, dress, and comb her hair.
“Is there a need to dress so gorgeously?” Shi Xi looked at the red court dress in front of her. The hem of the dress was wide and her eyes were filled with confusion. “Also, can I put down this wheelchair?”
“This is already the simplest gown we’ve made for you. Wait until you attend the palace banquet,” said Sena. “When you see the dresses the other ladies are wearing, you’ll know how plain they are.”
Shi Xi had no choice but to do as the locals did. “Alright, put it on.”
She was supposed to wear a skirt support under the dress, but Shi Xi was in a wheelchair, so Sena had no choice but to take it out regretfully.
When she was putting on the corset, Sena was merciless.
“It hurts!” Shi Xi shouted.
“Princess Consort, the First Prince likes girls with thin waists. Just take a breath and bear with it.” As she spoke, Sena continued to attack.
Shi Xi vomited blood. Who would like people with thin waists or legs?!
She was almost strangled to death, alright?!
After being flipped over, Shi Xi was so tired that she could not even lift her hands.
Even breathing was tiring.
Even so, Sena was still not satisfied. “The Queen likes girls who like to smile. Princess Consort, please smile more.”
“I like girls who like to smile too,” Shi Xi said casually. “Why don’t you ask the Queen to smile at me more?”
In the palace garden.
Queen Elizabeth was dressed in a white palace dress. The crown on her head was shining. She did not have much jewelry on her, but she wore a diamond necklace made of huge diamonds on her chest.
Even though she had already given birth to three children, the Queen’s figure was still slim and well-maintained. She looked like she was only in her thirties.
Next to her, Ryan and Bonita sat together in harmony.
After waiting for a while, she still did not come.
“Is Miss Shi not here yet?” Elizabeth put down her teacup, a faint smile in her eyes.
“Perhaps something delayed her. I’ll go take a look.” Ryan stood up and nodded slightly.
Bonita got up and tugged at Ryan’s sleeve. “Brother Ryan, I’m with you.”
“Stay here with the Queen,” Ryan said.
Bonita bit her lip and did not dare to look at the Queen. There was a hint of fear in her eyes.
Let’s go together. Elizabeth stood up elegantly. “I’d like to see what’s on Miss Shi’s mind that she’s so busy..”
