Walking all the way to Qifeng Palace, there were towering palaces everywhere, and even colorful flowers blooming in the imperial garden. Jun Li couldn't help but sigh that the royal family was indeed wealthy and powerful.
When she arrived at the gate of Qifeng Palace, the palace maid saw her and immediately went inside to pass on the message. After a while, she came out and said, "Princess, please come in."
The queen had already started having breakfast, and a palace maid was standing beside her to serve her, picking up food for her from time to time.
The queen is already in her early thirties this year, but there is no trace of time on her face, not even a wrinkle at the corners of her eyes. She looks like a young girl in her twenties. No wonder she has been the most favored concubine in the harem for so many years, and the original owner was also very favored.
Seeing her come in, the Queen waved, "Li'er, come and have dinner with your mother."
Jun Li nodded and sat down beside the Empress. Her eating movements were very standard, whether holding or putting down her chopsticks, there was not a single mistake. The Empress glanced at her, her face full of satisfaction. When Jun Li was halfway through her meal, the Empress wiped her mouth and said, "In half a month, it will be the Winter Banquet. Your father will entertain the ministers at court. As a princess, you are the role model for all the women in Xiqi. You must not make any mistakes. Your mother has already asked the Shangyi Bureau to make your clothes for the banquet. They will be delivered to your Chaoxia Palace in the next two days."
Jun Li also wiped her mouth: "I understand, your son has almost finished his meal. Please enjoy your meal, mother. Your son will take his leave first."
The Queen nodded and ordered someone to bring a food box. She said, "There's a new cook in the palace. Here are the snacks I made this morning. Have the maid bring them up. Please see which ones you like and have the Imperial Kitchen keep an eye on them."
The maid behind Jun Li took the food box. Jun Li smiled and said, "Thank you, mother."
......
Just paying respects made Junli feel tired.
She was not a person who liked to be restrained. If she was not afraid of being seen through, she would not have to work so hard. At the same time, she also deeply felt the helplessness of the original owner. As a princess, she had many rights and could control people's life and death, but she could not make herself happy. She could not even do what she wanted to do.
Suddenly, there was a sound of playfulness coming from the front, both men and women. Jun Li deviated and looked over the rockery towards the direction of the sound. There was a group of people standing on the small bridge, standing in a circle, and no one knew what they were doing.
Just as Jun Li was about to turn around and leave, she heard 0405 say, "The boss has appeared."
In an instant, some information flooded into Junli's mind.
Fu Mian's identity in this dimension is a prince named Jun Shihuai, who is two years younger than the original owner. Compared with the original owner's noble status, Jun Shihuai is more miserable. Since he was five or six years old, he has experienced the cruelty of the royal family. His mother is just an unpopular concubine, and he is just a prince who has trouble even eating.
Junli: "...Inhumane!"
0405: "Yes! Those people are completely inhumane!"
I didn’t expect the boss to be so miserable in this dimension. It even wanted to cry.
Jun Li then said, "I'm not talking about those people, I'm talking about the system. According to this setting, the original owner and Jun Shihuai are siblings, right? Jun Shihuai is only fifteen years old, how could I have the heart to bite him?"
0405: "...Don't worry, even if he's ten years old, you'll still have to bite him."
In this case, Jun Li had to intervene, but she couldn't even provide the most basic help. Once she was nice to him or alleviated his predicament, it might even have the opposite effect in the end.
