In the garden in the center of the square, Ruan Ruan was drinking tea and sitting next to the fountain.
Agungmo on the table stuck out his pink tongue, chirped non-stop, and gestured with his paws, as if he was dancing and saying something.
Ruan Ruan lowered her eyes and listened, tapping lightly on the stone table with her slender fingers.
Xili stood behind Ruan Ruan and raised her hand to block the glaring sunlight for her.
After her eyes were destroyed by Charles because her eye color was very similar to Chi Sui's, Ruan Ruan who happened to pass by saved her.
From then on, Ruan Ruan asked Charles for her, and kept her by his side day and night, using the power of light to heal her wounds.
Xili's eyes have only fully recovered in recent days.
She took good care of Ruan Ruan and treated her like a god.
Ruan Ruan used to have a maid whom she trusted, but three days ago, the maid was found dead in the back mountain. Her death was miserable. Ruan Ruan fainted several times because of this. It was not until today that she recovered and was willing to go out for a walk and bask in the sun.
Xili looked at Ruan Ruan's slender and delicate back with distress. Seeing Ruan Ruan looking into the distance, she immediately picked up the flower tea and said, "Saint, have a sip. It's been hot lately."
Ruan Ruan took the flower tea and frowned after listening to Agongmo's description of what happened.
If she had not sensed that Agungmo was seriously injured, she would not have sought medical treatment in such a hurry and offered her maid to Eric to eat, asking him to protect Agungmo and bring him back safely.
Ruan Ruan touched Agongmo's paw with heartache and felt very upset.
Who is the owner of the Phoenix? If it hadn't been secretly watching her, then the Phoenix wouldn't have appeared so coincidentally when Agongmo took action.
Unbeknownst to her, there was an enemy in the dark, which made her very uneasy.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for not relying on the heroine's halo and successfully conquering the maid Xili with 100% success, and obtaining the title of (Loyal Servant of the House)."
Ruan Ruan was stunned and realized that the reason she had been sitting here without getting sunburned was because Xili had been using her body and hands to block the sunlight for her.
Ruan Ruan, who has always been used to conquering men and driving them to do things for her, now feels a little dazed when she feels the 100% care and preference of her same-sex partner.
"Siri, let's go back."
Ruan Ruan stood up, holding Agongmo, and walked in front.
Xili hurried to follow.
After returning to his castle, Ruan Ruan took out a few bags of gold coins from the box.
There is an enemy in the dark. It is possible that Eric will need help in the future, and sacrifices will definitely be needed at that time.
Xili is a useful servant and cannot be given away as a sacrifice.
Ruan Ruan thought so, her eyes flickering.
She slowly turned around and gave Xili a gentle smile: "Xili, don't we have many abandoned baby girls in Cassio?"
Xili was stunned, not understanding what Ruan Ruan was trying to do, but she answered honestly, "Yes, many baby girls are abandoned as soon as they are born. The lucky ones are picked up by local priests and taken back to the church to be raised as nuns. The unlucky ones just disappear like that."
Ruan Ruan's eyes showed a trace of pity: "How pitiful."
She looked at the gold coins in the box and said, "Xili, use this money to build a Tzu Chi Hall to adopt those lovely children."
Xili was stunned. She looked at the few gold coins left in the box and quickly advised, "Saint, this is your entertainment city dividend this month. If you take it out, you probably won't have much left."
Ruan Ruan smiled and said, "It's okay. The entertainment city is profitable and there's still money to be made. People..."
She smiled, a gentle smile: "Go ahead."
Xili was moved by Ruan Ruan's kindness, and quickly promised that she would do her best, then left with the money.
Ruan Ruan was the only one left in the huge castle.
She looked at the flowers and plants outside the window with a faint expression.
A shadow shrouded her, and she no longer had the brightness and gentleness she had in front of others.
"Sacrifice..."
Ruan Ruan moved her lips and squinted her eyes to look into the distance.
In order to save money, Xili found a suburb in the royal city, bought an abandoned church, and then hired several elderly but healthy nuns and told them about Ruan Ruan's plan.
When the old nuns heard this, they all said that they did not want any compensation and were willing to stay in the Tzu Chi Hall for free to take care of the abandoned children.
In just one month, the Tzu Chi Hall was renovated, and churches in nearby villages and towns began to send their children there. After all, there were so many children that the churches in remote areas could not afford to support them.
Xili watched as the old nuns lovingly arranged rooms for the children, taught them scriptures, and instructed them to kneel down and pray for Ruan Ruan every morning in the direction of the palace where she was.
Xili felt complicated. Most of those abandoned were girls, and a few boys were abandoned because of their physical disabilities.
It was Ruan Ruan who took out the money and provided them with a big family.
Xili thought about the almost empty money, took out her wages, bought some wheat flour, and sent it to the Tzu Chi Hall.
In the palace cell.
Ruan Ruan put down the desserts and black tea she brought.
Looking at Bailey in the prison, who looked haggard but was cleaned up very well, he felt satisfied.
It seems her efforts were not in vain, Bailey is living quite well in prison.
"Princess Bailey."
Ruan Ruan pushed the dessert and tea over, and seeing that Princess Bailey was still in a daze and had no reaction, she waved her hand, signaling Xili to leave.
After everyone left, Agungmo spit out a transparent bubble.
The bubbles formed a barrier.
Ruan Ruan then slowly poured Bailey a cup of black tea: "You can't act crazy and stupid like this."
Princess Bailey was still stunned.
Ruan Ruan didn't mind: "I know you are pretending to be crazy and stupid just to get thrown into jail."
Putting the poured tea next to Princess Bailey, Ruan Ruan said in a gentle voice: "Dennis is not the king's child."
Princess Bailey's eyelashes trembled.
Ruan Ruan acted as if she didn't see it: "Dennis, it's Eric's child."
Princess Bailey's body began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Princess. You have betrayed the King."
Ruan Ruan looked at Bailey quietly, her voice still soft and pleasant.
Suddenly, Princess Bailey pounced over and grabbed Ruan Ruan's throat with such force that it seemed as if she wanted to strangle Ruan Ruan to death.
Ruan Ruan was pressed to the ground. For a moment, a murderous intent flashed in her eyes, but when she thought that this was Dennis's mother, she did not let Agongmo kill her.
Princess Bailey was restrained by Agongmo's blisters. Ruan Ruan pushed her away and gently stroked her neck with a cold look in her eyes.
"You can't kill me, so don't bother trying."
Ruan Ruan turned around, the gentle smile on her face gone. "Do you think that if you hide here, the queen won't harm your child? Or are you doing this for Eric to see?"
Princess Bailey's eyes were bloodshot, and her voice was hoarse with a desperate madness: "You and Eric are in cahoots!"
