Chapter 72 Puppet Girl vs Magician (8)
As the princess expected, the king died after only half a month due to his already unhealthy body and excessive fear.
After a grand funeral for the king, the princess was naturally elected by the ministers as the new king.
She was also the second queen in the history of the kingdom.
In later history, she was also the queen with the greatest achievements and the greatest contributions in the history of the kingdom.
For the development of the entire kingdom, she spent her life improving the lives of the people. Because she was busy with government affairs, she had stunning beauty but never married. People in later generations specially erected a statue for her in the People's Square, and generations have admired her.
Outside the window, the sky gradually changed from bright to gray, and then to pitch black.
"You are finally back. I have been waiting for you all day." The queen stood up immediately when she saw Shi Yi stepping into the door.
She should have rested at this time, but she was always depressed and always felt that she could only feel at ease if she saw Shi Yi, so she came here under the excuse of delivering cherries.
"Have you been waiting for me all day?" Shi Yi's eyes lit up when she saw the cherries in the glass box on the table. She immediately went to meet him, "Are you here to bring me cherries on purpose? Why don't you send a servant? Why do you come in person so late at night?"
"This is provided to me unconditionally by a large manor landlord. I brought it to you because I know you like it." The queen handed the whole box of cherries directly to Shi Yi.
"Thank you," Shi Yi crossed her legs, holding a box of cherries, eating one by one, very happily, "You have helped me so much. If you want to fulfill any wish, I will give it back to you."
Since she tasted this fruit last time, she seemed to be addicted. Every time she saw
it, she couldn't help it. Killing the king is unforgivable. She was able to avoid the search in the palace thanks to the help of the person in front of her.
The girl in front of her has everything, the only thing she lacks is a beautiful relationship. If she makes a wish, as a time and space strategist, she can be slightly satisfied in her heart. Who makes me like her?
The princess, who should now be called the queen, shook her head gracefully, her eyes rarely showing tenderness, "I don't want anything."
She felt that she was already very happy to know such an interesting person like Shi.
During the preparations for her coronation ceremony, Shi Yi's company made her feel that a corner of her heart was always warm. She and she seemed to be like family.
"Then I'm leaving here." Shi Yi grabbed the cherry stem, spit out the half-bitten cherry in his mouth, and looked into her eyes seriously.
She had already completed the client's task, and she stayed because she wanted to see the girl in front of her ascend the throne and become the queen.
Now that the princess has successfully become the queen, she has no reason to stay.
"Where are you going?" The queen was obviously anxious, "You have no relatives or friends at all, where are you going?"
"I'm probably going to disappear here." Shi Yi shook the cherry stem in her hand. The place where she bit the cherry revealed the blood-red flesh, which was sticky with her transparent saliva and was particularly fragrant.
"Disappear?" The queen had a bad premonition.
Did she disappear from this world like her mother did? !
"It's not the disappearance you imagine." Shi Yi talked to her seriously, "You should know that I am not an ordinary puppet. I can speak, have human emotions, and my actions are no different from those of a human. If I want to hide myself, no one can tell whether I am a puppet or a real person."
"Why don't you stay in the palace, stay by my side?" The queen eagerly grabbed her hand.
She wanted to ask Shi Yi not to leave, but she couldn't find any particularly suitable excuse for a while.
"Because I don't like it here. I don't like the atmosphere here." Shi Yi put his other hand on the back of her hand, "Although I really like you. I always feel that there is some kind of secret relationship between us. But, you know, I am a puppet. How can a puppet have any secret relationship with a human being. And if I stay in the palace and am recognized as the murderer who killed the king, where will your reputation be?!"
"The entire palace is mine now, and no one dares to bring up the past." The queen said very confidently.
Regarding what Shi Yi said, "I always feel that there is some kind of secret relationship between them", the queen also felt the same way in her heart, so she sent someone to investigate. Since then, her life course has changed again.
"But you forgot the prime minister. He is not convinced by you. If he catches your handle, he will definitely pull you down." Although Shi Yi did not think that the prime minister had such ability, facing the queen's strong retention, she could only try her best to shirk.
She had also thought about leaving the queen without saying goodbye, but the deep corner of her heart always reminded her that she could not do so.
Of course, the queen could understand that Shi Yi was making excuses, but she just couldn't bear it. She couldn't bear to separate from such a congenial and pleasing girl, or even never see her again.
"Really can't you stay? Even for me?" She tried more carefully.
Shi Yi shook his head firmly, "If I stay, it will really hurt you."
"I will miss you, always." Since she couldn't keep Shi Yi, she stopped forcing him.
"I hope you can become a queen that everyone truly admires. When that day comes, I will definitely come back to see you." Shi Yi encouraged her, "I believe you can do it."
"You must also be happy and safe." The queen blessed her, "You are the first person I really get along with in all these years. So, you must not live a bad life."
"You should know that I will not suffer any loss if you see how I treat unfaithful people." Shi Yi patted his chest like a boy.
"Then we will see each other again if we are destined to." The queen was obviously reluctant.
"Goodbye." After Shi Yi waved goodbye to her, he put on a light chestnut hat and floated through the palace like the wind.
When will we see each other again in the future? Looking at the place where she disappeared, the queen murmured to herself.
Perhaps because of Shi Yi's promise when he left, or perhaps because of her responsibility to the entire kingdom, the queen put all her thoughts on her people. Soon, she won widespread praise from the people.
As for the prime minister whom she had always disliked, he resigned soon after she took office. It is said that when he went to inspect his own estate, he fell into the pool of water for irrigating the vineyard and was not saved.
Under her leadership, the kingdom was undergoing amazing changes in a stable and orderly manner.
