"Mm..."
After checking over her own body, she didn't find anything conclusive.
She was clearly sore all over, especially around her waist and legs, but her body showed no trace of having been "played with" by the Empress.
How strange. Could it be that after sleeping with her last night, the Empress thoughtfully cleaned her body as well?
She felt that was unlikely. If her body had truly been ravaged last night, the Empress shouldn't have cleaned her up. She would definitely have left her "masterpiece" to see her expression the next day.
Forget it, no point checking anymore. Even if she found sothing, it wouldn't matter. She was in the Empress's hands now, who could play with her however she wanted. Even hanging her up to play would be no problem.
After getting dressed again, she ca to the Empress's office with such an angry expression that anyone would think she'd been cursed.
"Fei! What did you do to last night!?"
The little Princess demanded angrily.
"I didn't do anything."
Apart from randomly touching a few tis, she really hadn't done anything else.
But seeing the little Princess clutching her waist and walking unnaturally, the Empress seed to think of sothing and decided to tease the little Princess.
"You still say you didn't do anything!? Then what's wrong with right now!?"
"Pfft... Alright, alright, alright, I admit I had my way with you last night. How about that?"
"Tch..."
The little Princess clenched her fists, looking like she wanted to hit soone, but after thinking it over several tis, she still didn't rush forward to punch the Empress in the face. She was afraid the Empress would seize the opportunity to toy with her again.
Seeing the little Princess's reaction, the Empress couldn't help but smile.
She was so easy to deceive. Or perhaps the fact that the little Princess's first reaction was to bla her gave her a strange sense of accomplishnt?
At least her body had rembered her well.
"You... I really..."
In a fit of anger, the little Princess slamd the door and left, though despite using almost all her strength, the door only made a slightly louder sound when she slamd it.
"Princess Mo?"
Seeing the little Princess erge from the Empress's office with a dark expression, the Maid Xiao Xi quickly stepped forward to console her.
"Princess Mo, are you alright? If you have anger bottled up inside, you must let it out. Keeping it in is bad for your health."
"Mm, I'm fine."
Honestly, she was really angry, not because the Empress had done that to her, but because the Empress hadn't told her beforehand.
She knew that since the Empress had done it once, there would definitely be a next ti, so she'd always been ntally prepared. But doing it without telling her at all, even while she was asleep, made her especially angry.
Didn't she even dare face her directly? Sneaking around while she was completely unaware...
"Princess Mo?"
"Hm?"
The little Princess pushed away the little loli maid Xiyan who had just co to embrace her.
"No need to hug, I'm perfectly fine."
At least she wasn't angry to that degree yet. A re Empress wasn't enough to make her this angry, not enough...
So after sending away the little loli maid Xiyan, she walked alone to the garden. Along the way, due to physical exhaustion, she had to stop and rest frequently, taking a long ti to reach the garden.
If the little loli maid Xiyan had been with her, she could have quickly carried her here on her back, right? But she had just vented her anger on Xiyan.
Forget it, no point thinking about these useless things. It was all in the past anyway.
"Princess Mo? Why are you here alone?"
Following the voice and looking up, it was Red Leaf.
"Red Leaf?"
"Ah... Is Princess Mo wondering why I'm here?"
"No."
This garden was one of the paths into the Imperial Palace. If soone was going to see the Empress and happened to be taking the east gate of the inner city, passing through this garden was normal. She wasn't puzzled about why Red Leaf appeared here.
"You seem to be in a bad mood, Princess Mo. Has sothing happened?"
She had long heard about what the Empress had done to the little Princess, and she was even in the Imperial Palace at the ti...
Personally, she also didn't want the little Princess's feelings toward the Empress to be cold, because if that were the case, she couldn't get promoted and slack off by the little Princess's side.
Of course, she had so favorable feelings toward the little Princess too, just not as much as toward the Empress.
But since the little Princess had already been established as Imperial Consort by the Empress, if the Empress didn't order her not to listen to the little Princess, she would place the little Princess's orders second, with the Empress always being first priority.
"Then since Princess Mo doesn't wish to be disturbed, I'll take my leave."
She had important matters to discuss with the Empress.
"Go ahead, go ahead."
The little Princess waved her hand.
She could just sulk here by herself for a bit...
"Psst psst——"
"Hm?"
Red Leaf, who was about to enter the Imperial Palace, suddenly heard soone calling her from the bushes nearby. After glancing back to confirm the little Princess wasn't paying attention, she dove straight into the flower bushes.
"Xiyan? What are you doing here?"
"Well, because Princess Mo is angry and told not to follow, but I'm still worried..."
So she could only hide at a slightly distant spot to watch over the little Princess, in case she encountered danger and there was no way to protect her imdiately, though there was almost no danger inside Scarlet Phoenix Nation's Imperial Palace.
"If you're worried, why not just go over directly?"
"But Princess Mo is angry."
"Princess Mo isn't angry at you. She's probably angry at Her Majesty the Empress, right?"
"Mm... Princess Mo started getting angry after seeing the Empress."
She didn't know what the little Princess was angry about now. Going over to ask, she feared her clumsy tongue would accidentally make the little Princess even angrier.
Red Leaf sighed lightly.
As expected, Her Majesty the Empress could always inexplicably anger Princess Mo, and this ti was no exception.
Looking at the little Princess's state, she must be quite upset. Otherwise, no matter what, she absolutely wouldn't send Xiyan away and sit alone in the garden staring blankly at the flowers.
"I still have important matters to report to Her Majesty the Empress, so I'll be going. But before I leave, I need to remind you, if Princess Mo is angry, you shouldn't let her sulk alone there. You should go comfort her properly."
She believed that even while angry, the little Princess wouldn't get angry at Xiyan for no reason. Telling Xiyan to leave was probably because she didn't want Xiyan to see her other side, right? That childlike side of her.
"Shouldn't let Princess Mo sulk there alone?"
After Red Leaf left, the little loli maid Xiyan repeated what Red Leaf had said.
That's right, she couldn't just leave Princess Mo alone there! She had to go comfort Princess Mo! At least she had to make Princess Mo feel better!
