Chapter 2 — In rebirth, I stole the merit to save the princess, I turned around to save the prince
"Your Majesty, this is the goddess's younger sister, Tham Ting Truc. She heard that the princess was holding a thanksgiving party in the palace, so she insisted on following the goddess to open her eyes. The goddess couldn't stop her, so she brought her here. Surely the queen won't blame her, right?"
Tham Van Nhu pulled me from the back to the front. Hearing that, the Queen's eyes turned to look at me. I bowed my head low, my eyes falling on her exquisite dress. The Queen frowned slightly, her eyes stopped on my veil, her voice carried a bit of unhappiness.
"Why are you covering your face?"
"My Lady, in recent days my goddess's appearance has been damaged. I'm afraid it will dirty your eyes, so I have to use a veil to cover my face."
The Queen said nothing more. When the banquet was about to start, Ly Mong Uyen slowly appeared. She wore a light pink palace outfit. The butterfly pattern embroidered on the dress is so delicate that it looks real, the hem of the dress is trimmed with gold thread, and on top is a set of gold knives encrusted with rubies. The whole person exuded dignity and elegance, further accentuating the vulgarity of Tham Van Nhu, who was wearing gold, silver and jewels next to him. Ly Mong Uyen walked to the Queen's side and coddled a few words. The Queen smiled and took her hand.
"Meng Uyen, this is the benefactor who saved you in the river that day. Come quickly and thank him."
Hearing the Queen's words, Ly Mong Uyen's eyes shifted slightly, stopping on Tham Van Nhu. Tham Van Nhu quickly stood up and smiled approvingly.
"Your Highness the Princess does not need to be polite. Although I defied danger to save people that day, being able to save the Princess is my honor. I do not dare to take all the credit."
Before the princess could say anything, the idiot Tham Van Nhu was already talking politely first. I laughed coldly in my heart. If she really doesn't dare to take credit, then what's the point in these past few days of her using the name of the Princess's life-saving benefactor to spread her power throughout the capital? Does she really think that the Queen and Princess know nothing? I secretly glanced at Ly Mong Uyen, and sure enough, I saw a flash of contempt and contempt in her eyes. Exactly like the previous life. In fact, she never valued the so-called life-saving grace at all. However, Tham Van Nhu had a saying that suited her very well. Being able to save her is truly an honor for Tham Van Nhu. Ly Mong Uyen did not answer, just smiled faintly at Tham Van Nhu. That made Tham Van Nhu's face, which was waiting for Ly Mong Uyen to say a few words of gratitude to make her smile even more, immediately stiffen, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Fortunately, the Queen spoke up for Ly Mong Uyen and said a few words, helping Tham Van Nhu not to lose face. The thanksgiving party was held extremely solemnly. During the party, Tham Van Nhu continuously tried to start a conversation with Ly Mong Uyen, while Ly Mong Uyen kept a distant smile from beginning to end, occasionally indifferently responding to her a few words. After the banquet ended, after leaving the palace gate and getting on the carriage to return to the station, Tham Van Nhu immediately began to complain.
"Huh, this Seventh Princess is really cold. I am the benefactor who saved her life, but I don't even have a word of thanks."
"What's so terrible about a princess? If Without me, she would have drowned in the river long ago, how could she continue to be a Princess unharmed?"
Tham Van Nhu was full of resentment. Hearing those disrespectful words coming out of her mouth, I slightly raised my eyebrows. Tham Van Nhu's courage is indeed still as big as in his previous life. I quietly glanced at the driver who was leaning his ear outside the curtain, listening intently to the movements inside. Perhaps Tham Van Nhu did not know that the people who appeared next to her these past few days were all Ly Mong Uyen's people, including this coachman. Her words today will be transmitted intact to Ly Mong Uyen's ears. I just don't know if my good sister can withstand Ly Mong Uyen's retaliation or not. Two days later, Ly Mong Uyen sent someone to the station to welcome Tham Van Nhu into the palace. After returning from the palace, Tham Van Nhu was rewarded with many precious things. She held each reward in front of the mirror and sprinkled it on her body. Seeing me standing next to her, she thought I was admiring her, so she conveniently took out a brooch made of goat fat jade from the pile of rewards and threw it to me.
