"If anyone disobeys, I will make an example of them and let them know the consequences of disrespecting the royal princess!"

The grand court meeting held every ten days has finally arrived.
Xu Junzheng arrived early. He had to win today's battle! And he had to be beautiful!
"Your Majesty has arrived~" Liu Dewang's high-pitched voice rang out.
