Chapter 4 — Your Majesty's Little Blessings

5

The Bac Liang saint was locked in a heavenly prison. The Bac Luong envoy was so angry that he wanted to throw his hands up and leave on the spot. Tieu Diem leisurely wiped her mouth.

“What, Northern Liang wants to declare war on my Dai Uyen?”

One sentence made the Northern Liang envoy immediately speechless. In the end, they could only bring the official letter back. As for that holy woman, Tieu Diem didn't even mention it, as if she had forgotten this person existed. We know, this is not that simple. 【Definitely dragged you into the dark prison for serious interrogation.】 【Tsk tsk, the tyrant's methods, just thinking about it is scary.】 Tieu Diem was hugging me and stiffened for a bit, then calmly gave me a piece of cinnamon flower cake.

“Eat more, shut your mouth.”

【Huh, I have a habit of being startled.】 I cursed silently while happily eating flower waffles. After this incident, my position in the palace became even stronger. Everyone knows that Princess Vinh An is not only His Majesty's heart and soul, but also a little star. With her here, no demons or demons can come close to Your Majesty. The Queen Mother still had some opinions about her "future daughter-in-law", so she sent someone to bring delicious food and interesting toys every three days. Our great career is progressing smoothly like never before. In a flash, ten years have passed. I'm sixteen years old. Showing her graceful beauty, she became the number one beauty in the capital. People coming to pray for their relatives lined up from the royal palace gate all the way to the outside of the city gate. Of course, they were all beaten back by Tieu Diem. The reason is: Princess Vinh An is my future queen, do you also dare to dream? Therefore, no one dares to come to pray for marriage anymore. But we started to panic. In the year of birth, she was appointed queen. This is what Tieu Diem decided when I was just one year old. Currently, I am sixteen years old, less than a year away from the wedding ceremony. I don't want to marry a man who can monitor my thoughts anytime, anywhere. That's so no privacy! What's more, he's still a tyrant! Although he has been very good to me these past ten years, countries are easy to change, nature is hard to change. Who knows if one day he's unhappy and will punish me too? So, we must run. I began to secretly make a "plan to leave the palace". First of all, you have to save money. Although Tieu Diem rewarded me with a lot of gold, silver and jewels, those things were all too bulky and difficult to carry. We need a check. So, we started thinking about ways to make money. 【Those concubines in the palace, everyone is so bored with idleness, they only know how to compete for affection every day.】 【If I opened a beauty shop, selling skin care masks, essential oils or something, I would definitely make a fortune.】 Tieu Diem was reading a book, her hand turning the book stopped. The next day, the general manager of the Internal Affairs Palace immediately brought me a pile of bottles, saying that they were sacred beauty products donated by Tay Vuc, and His Majesty specially rewarded me. I look at those things and fall into contemplation. 【Is this considered… an official investment?】 【Okay, it's a waste if you don't take it.】 So, my "royal beauty salon" quietly opened in my palace. Business is extremely bustling. Those concubines want to be more beautiful and spend money like running water. I quickly accumulated a large amount of personal money. Once you have the money, the next step is planning the route. 【After leaving the palace, first go to Giang Nam, I heard that there is beautiful scenery and handsome men many.】 【Then go to Mac Bac, see the desert, the desert, the paradise.】 【Finally, find a place with green mountains and blue water, buy a house, raise a few dogs, spend your life happily!】 I crawled by the window, dreaming of a good future, my saliva was about to flow.

“It's nice to think about.”

A cold voice rang out behind me. I was so scared that I trembled and almost fell off the window sill. I don't know when Tieu Diem stood behind me, looking down at me from above. There was no expression on his face, but my back felt cold.

“My queen wants to take my money to find another man?”

His voice was very calm, calm to the point of being scary. I laughed dryly twice.

“No... there's no such thing, I just thought casually, just thought casually.”

【Mom, we've been discovered!】 【When did he come? Is there no sound on the road?】 【It's over, my personal money is about to be confiscated!】 【My escape plan is about to go up in smoke!】 Tieu Diem looked at me deeply, said nothing, turned and left. I look at his back and always feel the calm before the storm. Over the next few days, Tieu Diem stopped coming to my place. In my heart, I feel restless. On the one hand, I was worried if he was choking on some great move. On the other hand, it's a bit... unfamiliar. Habits are truly scary things. For the past ten years, he has been with me almost every day. He suddenly stopped coming, and my palace immediately became cold. 【Hmph, it's better if I don't come, I'll be more free by myself.】 I consoled myself and couldn't help but look towards the palace door.
