Chapter 64: Are you here to play palace fighting with her?
"How dare you! She's my queen! She's the mother of my future child! I'm the only one who can be by her side. Who the hell do you think you are to covet her?!"
"Queen? No one in the empire witnessed it. I'm afraid even the little female herself wouldn't admit it. Your Majesty, don't you think you're deceiving yourself?"
"Shut up!"
Being hit in the sore spot, Duotu's face looked extremely ugly!
Quan Xiu pushed him away, flicked his sleeves, and carefully smoothed out the wrinkles. "Your Majesty, why don't you take a look and see who she will choose?"
The blazing true fire attacked furiously.
Quan Xiu's figure disappeared in an instant.
"I'm looking forward to it..."
On this extremely important day, the coronation ceremony, the Queen did not accompany the Beast King to the ceremony. That night, when the two were supposed to sleep together, Duotu did not come either.
Ah Man said that when His Royal Highness the Beast King came back, he was disheveled and looked a little embarrassed and lonely. He passed by Taoyuanwu, stopped for a while, then turned around and stayed in the study all night.
Since the last time they broke up, Sang Luo hasn't seen Duotu for a long time.
"The noblewoman of the Brent family has entered the palace."
In the palace courtyard, Sang Luo sat on a rattan chair, enjoying the sun. While listening to the news Ah Man brought from outside, she ate melon seeds. "Hmm, these melon seeds taste good, with a milky flavor. I'm eating them for the first time."
"Queen, don't you have any sense of crisis? Marshall Brent was just promoted to level seven some time ago! She is the only young level seven female beast in the empire in the past fifty years, and also the most fertile aristocratic female of this generation. The old Beast King originally intended to match her with the Lord Beast King. Now that she has been sent to the palace, her ambition is obvious!" It's true that the emperor is not anxious, but the eunuch is.
Sang Luo said "Oh", obviously more concerned, "Which store outside the palace did you buy these melon seeds from? Go buy me another bag tomorrow."
Ah Man was completely speechless.
"My Queen, Lady Marsali Brent has come to pay her respects and is waiting outside the door."
Sang Luo raised an eyebrow. Shouldn't she be trying to please Duotu? Why was she coming to her place to show off her presence?
"Let her in." She happened to be bored these days.
The servants brought Marsali Brent into the hall.
Along the way, Marshall Brent couldn't bear to blink, and exclaimed in amazement, "This palace is so gorgeously decorated, even compared to the bedroom of His Majesty the Beast King, it's not much inferior."
"Have you been to his bedroom?" Sang Luo walked over with an unfathomable tone.
"Ah! Her Majesty the Queen."
Marsali Brune performed the proper etiquette with a gentle and elegant smile on her face.
After a round of greetings, she asked several servants behind her to come forward with gifts, which were large and small packages.
Sang Luo watched the servants carrying things into the palace and said with a smile, "You are always generous."
"The things in the palace are really good. It makes the gifts I gave seem a little inferior. I hope Your Majesty will not dislike it." Marshall Brent clasped her hands together and lifted up a section of her sleeve, revealing a bracelet that looked like jade.
Sang Luo could tell at a glance that this jade was a special jade supplied to the Beast King Palace, and it could not be bought in any other shops.
"Is this a gift from Duotu for you?" Sang Luo asked.
Marsali Brent's face flushed slightly. "Well, I just got here. His Majesty the Beast King was worried that I wouldn't be used to living in the palace, so he sent some small things with me. They're not worth mentioning."
She spoke modestly, but her face was slightly raised, full of happiness and pride. This kind of top-grade precious jade is worth a fortune.
She glanced at Sang Luo, who was dressed simply. She had almost no jewelry on her body and only wore a very simple white dress. Her black hair was draped behind her, a little messy. It seemed that she had just woken up from a nap and had not had time to comb her hair.
The two people have very different temperaments. If an outsider came to take a look, I'm afraid anyone would think that Marshall Brent is the noble and beautiful Queen.
"Your Majesty the Queen is dressed so plainly. If outsiders see you, you will be laughed at."
Marsali Brent took the jade bracelet from her finger and was about to put it on her.
Sang Luoshou shrank back and dodged.
Her face stiffened for a moment, then she came to her senses and quickly stuffed the jade bracelet to Ah Man beside her, still wearing a polite and gentle smile. "Your Highness the Beast King is really something! Those small countries have contributed a lot of treasures these days, but you didn't even think to buy some for Her Highness the Queen. If outsiders see this, they'll gossip behind her back!"
She reached out and brushed her hair, her fingertips lightly tracing the emerald jade earrings as she murmured, "His Majesty the Beast King is usually very busy with official duties, so it's inevitable that he's a little careless. It's normal for him to forget these trivial matters. Your Majesty the Queen must remind him of this in the future!"
"..." Sang Luo smiled with a forced smile. It turned out that this guy came to play palace fighting with her.
Originally, her first impression of Marsali Brent was quite good. She was a gentle, generous and elegant aristocratic female rarely seen in the animal world. But now it seemed that she was just so-so.
We can’t even get enough people together to play Landlord, what’s the point of playing?
boring.
Sang Luo exchanged a few words with Marsali Brent, then made an excuse of feeling unwell and asked her servants to escort her out of the palace.
The servant beside him was in a much better mood after seeing Marsali Brent leave the palace. He was dazzled by her smile and asked gently, "Why are you so happy, lady?"
"What do you think of the palace we just visited?"
The male beast servant was stunned for a moment before replying, "Just as the noble lady said, it's very luxurious. If I'm not mistaken, the stones used throughout the palace are all black jade white stone, which is only available on the Eastern Continent. The landscape murals in the corridors are made of jade bone powder, which is made by grinding the bones of high-level star beasts into powder and mixing it with pigments. The residual spiritual energy can nourish the body for a long time... It's obvious that the Beast King put a lot of thought into building this palace. It's no less than the Beast King's bedroom!"
"Maybe I'll be moving in soon." Marsali Brent sneered, her lips curled slightly. "I thought His Majesty doted on the Queen so much, but it turns out it's just an empty title."
"Ah? What do you mean?"
"There wasn't even a pairing ceremony, and His Majesty didn't even let her accompany him during the coronation. Where in history has there ever been such a precedent? The Beast King definitely doesn't like her. It's simply because she gave birth to a natural king beast offspring that His Majesty was impressed by her fertility."
It will be useless after you give birth to the baby.
No, maybe she wouldn't even have the chance to have a baby. Marsali Brent touched her belly and thought she still had a chance!
…
Taoyuanwu.
Ah Man fiddled with the bracelet. "Your Majesty has sent countless boxes of these little things before! I wonder what that noblewoman is showing off to!"
"Really?... This jade does look pretty good, and feels really soft and smooth to the touch."
"Of course, the palace's utility rooms are filled with better things than this, but you, Queen, have never even glanced at them."
"..."Okay, she was indeed completely focused on the beast crystals. She used to be interested in this kind of fancy jewelry, but she lost interest in it after she gave birth to her child.
Sang Luo laughed again, "You are becoming more and more picky."
"Hehe, it's because I follow the queen that I've seen a lot of good things!"
Ah Man glanced at the door and said unhappily, "Your Majesty, didn't you see the way that noble lady looked at our palace just now? It was as if this Peach Blossom Valley was hers and she was going to move in tomorrow!"
Sang Luo said to himself, maybe it's true.
"This jade bracelet is a reward for you. You can exchange it for a lot of crystals outside the palace."
"It's a bit unlucky." Ah Man curled her lips, but soon gave in to the money. "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Don't call me queen from now on. Just call me by my name."
"Isn't this against the rules?"
"It's okay. At least in Taoyuanwu now, I am the rule. You have to call me whatever I tell you to call me. Otherwise, I will be unhappy, and if I am unhappy, I will replace you."
"Ahem! Your Excellency Sang Luo!" He quickly changed his words.
Sang Luo was quite satisfied. "It's a bit hot. Please help me squeeze some juice."
After Ah Man left, Sang Luo looked down at his wrists and ankles, and the mark of a golden chain flashed by.
