158~ Strange Banquet~
"Are you done?"
"Yes, this necklace suits Your Highness very well!"
Xiyan jumped down from the stool.
This was the necklace the Empress gave to the little Princess for life-saving purposes. However, because the little Princess didn't like it, after the Empress gave it to her, it had been sitting in her Magic Space Ring gathering dust.
Today, the Midias Empire was specially holding a banquet tonight to welco the little Princess's arrival, and the three of them were currently dressing up for the banquet.
Therefore, the crystal necklace the Empress gave to the little Princess finally had the opportunity to be taken out and worn again. First, this was the most beautiful accessory she could produce from all her possessions. Second, at a critical mont, it could save her life.
Produced by a Great Archmage, it must be a masterpiece. In terms of life-saving ability, this crystal necklace was absolutely top-tier, unless there were other Great Archmages who wanted her life.
"So-so."
The little Princess looked at the mirror expressionlessly.
Beautiful was beautiful, but thinking that this necklace ca from the Empress's hands made it feel not quite right.
If not for the fact that it was powerful and had extrely strong life-saving capabilities, she would have definitely thrown it straight into the trash bin.
"Princess, the Midias royal ssenger has arrived."
"Let her in."
What business could they have coming to find her at this ti?
The little Princess was sowhat curious.
Before long, the person was brought before her, and she had already controlled her expression beforehand.
"You must be Lady Mo from the Eastern Region's Glaze Nation?"
"Mm. Did your esteed country's royal family send you over because there's sothing that needs discussion?"
"Not at all. His Majesty just asked to deliver invitations to you and your two maids. Tonight you'll need the invitations to enter the banquet."
Having said this, she took out three invitations made with gold foil stamping technology that looked very high-class.
"Thank you for the trouble. Xiao Xi, go accept them."
"Understood."
Maid Xiao Xi stepped forward to accept the invitations.
"I've long heard that as the First Princess of the Eastern Region's Glaze Nation, you governed the nation well at such a young age, and now for your country's sake, you endured humiliation to marry far away to Scarlet Phoenix Nation's Empress..."
"Are you insulting Her Majesty?"
Before the ssenger could finish, little loli maid Xiyan coldly questioned.
"Xiyan."
The little Princess raised a finger to her lips, signaling her not to continue speaking.
As expected, youth was easily provoked. In one move, information had been extracted from their side.
Now this ssenger definitely already knew that the little loli maid Xiyan by her side was the Empress's person.
"My apologies, I spoke too presumptuously."
"No matter."
The little Princess smiled.
"I just hope that after you return, you can tell your esteed country's king that if he wants to know about the situation in the Eastern Region, he can personally chat with ."
"Understood. I will relay your words to His Majesty."
......
After sending off the Midias royal ssenger, the little Princess clenched her small fist and harshly knocked Xiyan's little head once again.
"You! Do you know that just now soone was tricking you into jumping out and revealing your identity!?"
"Wuwu... Xiyan didn't know!"
Little loli maid Xiyan covered her head and cried out.
She really didn't know anything! She only knew that Her Majesty the Empress, who allowed her to stay by the side of Lady Mo whom she adored, was insulted. She got angry for a mont and couldn't help but warn her a bit. Who knew human hearts could be so complex!
"Haah... forget it. This matter doesn't bla you. It's my fault."
She shouldn't have let this naive little loli maid stay by her side when eting that ssenger.
"Then Princess, what do you plan to do?"
"Deal with it as it cos. Take things one step at a ti. The Midias Empire shouldn't act rashly. They're not like the Raider Empire, that kind of nation that's jealous and hostile toward the Eastern Region."
She no longer cared. They had already entered the Midias Empire's royal capital. It was their turf, they called the shots. If worst ca to worst, they'd just make a run for it.
In any case, during that period when she returned to Glaze Nation, she hadn't been idle either. She'd been collecting Magic Scrolls every day. She didn't mind using up these Magic Scrolls to blast a hole in the royal capital's city wall.
"Your Highness..."
Little loli maid Xiyan pitifully crawled to the little Princess's feet, both hands tightly grasping her white-stockinged small feet, chin resting on her knees, eyes brimming with tears as she stared at her.
"Alright, alright. I'm not blaming you anymore, not blaming you anymore. Hurry and get up."
The little Princess urged.
She really couldn't take it anymore, Xiyan's rule-breaking expression.
"Yay!"
Getting the little Princess's forgiveness made her happy.
"Haah, this heartless little loli..."
She said helplessly.
There was no helping it. Who told Xiyan's personality to originally be like this?
In any case, she wouldn't casually change Xiyan's personality. She didn't like forcibly changed personalities either. She preferred Xiyan's original lively appearance.
As for experiencing that kind of blow, forget it.
"Alright, the ti should be about right. Let's prepare and head over."
The little Princess looked toward the sun outside the balcony gradually approaching the horizon. In about another hour it should be nightti, which was when the banquet would begin.
"Understood."
"Standing by at any ti, Princess."
......
......
On the other side, within the Midias royal capital's palace.
"Interesting. So there are people from Scarlet Phoenix Nation by her side?"
"Yes, but His Majesty told you not to go too far, at least not too obviously."
"I know, I know. That dead old man is just full of demands. He calls to do sothing but then wants to control how I do it."
She complained.
As a royal family mber of a great Western Region nation, naly the Second Princess of the Midias Empire, she was extrely interested in the little Princess.
Perfect. Now while her Father the King wanted to make a move on her, she directly jumped out and actively indicated she would do it. She was competent enough to complete this task.
"You must not disappoint , First Princess from the Eastern Region's Glaze Nation~"
......
......
The banquet began. The little Princess brought Xiao Xi and Xiyan into the banquet.
This banquet was mainly attended by royal family mbers who ca to Midias, including royal family mbers from other countries.
Those from the Eastern Region were only the little Princess's group. At the banquet they seed out of place, appearing slightly awkward.
Thus, the little Princess brought the two to sit in a more secluded corner. In any case, with so many people here, no one could recognize her as the one from the Eastern Region.
She just sat quietly in the corner, watching the princes and princesses of the various Western Region nations converse.
However, she always felt as if gazes from the entire venue were directed this way, but when she raised her head, everyone seed to avoid her line of sight.
"......"
"Um, Your Highness, they seem to know we're from the Eastern Region."
"Mm."
This point didn't need others to say it. She naturally noticed.
But she couldn't possibly go up and say "Hello, I am the Princess from the Eastern Region's Glaze Nation, Mo," could she?
