Celia stood beside Aurelion, frozen in place, her mouth agape, not daring to utter a sound.
Is this something she should be able to hear?
Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she quickly turned to look at the servants around her.
You absolutely must not let these words get out!
Fortunately, none of the servants even looked this way; their expressions remained calm, as if they hadn't heard anything at all.
The main strategy is to pretend to be deaf and dumb.
After all, Aurelion treated these servants very well, so they naturally wouldn't cause trouble for their mistress.
Celia blinked, and could only stammer as she answered:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
"Your subordinate doesn't understand these things..."
Discussing these matters within the palace is already a great act of disrespect.
Even though Aurelion was a princess, the emperor's favorite child.
But after all, Emperor Aubrey is still sitting on the throne.
Such outspoken remarks are akin to admitting one's ambition for the throne.
Even the two princes dared not utter such dangerous remarks.
In most people's minds, the throne is passed down to sons, not daughters.
From its founding to the present, the empire has had eight emperors.
Every emperor was male.
There is no reason for a princess to rule as regent.
Not to mention... becoming an empress.
Unless, of course, Her Highness the Princess becomes as powerful as His Majesty is now, or even more powerful.
He was able to suppress all dissenting voices and actions single-handedly.
Celia dared not say another word.
Aurelion squinted, looking somewhat sleepy.
"Is that so..."
Celia, standing beside her, didn't dare say anything more and could only keep her head down quietly, her body trembling slightly.
But soon, Celia could no longer hear Aurelion's voice.
She slightly raised her head and stole a glance at Aurelion.
The princess lay peacefully on the transparent, slowly flowing whirlwind, fast asleep.
Two blushes appeared faintly on her cheeks, and her slightly chubby face made her look very cute.
Celia looked at her quietly, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
Putting aside Aurelian's status as a princess, Her Highness is just a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl.
He should have had a carefree and innocent life.
But now, it seems as if I am forcing myself to shoulder something extremely difficult.
...
"I don't!"
In the Clevina Gardens, a stubborn voice suddenly rang out from among the flowers.
Kokote was like a stubborn donkey, tilting his head and pouting, sitting firmly on the cloud like a Buddha, unmoved by anything anyone said.
She glared at the man in front of her with great dissatisfaction and shouted loudly:
"You just said that as long as I help you, I won't have to work anymore!"
"You're forcing me! I'm going to tell Aubrey on you!"
Victor stood with his hands in his pockets, expressionless, calmly looking at the former lazy senator in front of him.
"I'll say it again: as an employee of the Clavner family, you have an obligation to work for me."
"Moreover, the person you are protecting this time is the emperor's daughter."
"To put it simply, this time you're not only working for me, but also for the emperor."
The implication is that if you want to file a complaint, go ahead and do so.
Do you think the emperor values his daughter more, or your sleep?
Koko gritted his teeth, held one hand across his body, frowned, and looked at Victor like a possessive puppy.
"you!"
"You think this will make me agree to you?!"
"I'm telling you, I absolutely will not comply!"
Victor, however, spoke in the same calm tone.
"If you don't behave, I'll send you home."
"Waaah, I promise you, okay?"
In today's debate, Cocotte lost.
After dealing with this stubborn mule, Leah slowly walked over from the side and said to Victor:
"Those demi-humans have all gathered... So, what exactly do you want?"
"Take them on a long trip."
Viktor replied indifferently.
Hearing Victor's brief reply, Lia looked helpless, rubbed her forehead, and sighed.
"Leaving again? How many days are you planning to stay this time?"
Victor turned to look at Leah and said slowly:
"If you miss me, just use this."
Victor reached out and gently touched Lydia's glove.
Lia did not dodge Victor's outstretched hand, but her body leaned back slightly as if she were somewhat disgusted.
Her cheeks were slightly red, like a lightly ripe apple, and she gently turned her head away.
"You're such a grown man, why would I still miss you?"
"I'm not that dramatic."
Viktor nodded, but didn't reply to his proud and aloof younger sister.
Lia, however, seemed to have thought of something, secretly glanced at Viktor, and coughed softly.
"Oh, by the way, does Hene know you're leaving?"
"I don't think she's been doing too well lately."
Viktor seemed completely unconcerned and calmly replied:
"We had already given them advance notice."
Henney's condition was within his expectations.
After learning that she was not human, Henney naturally needed a period of self-doubt.
Once she is able to fully accept the fact of her identity, she will be able to gradually emerge from the internal struggle of self-doubt.
