341~ He Yan~
"Zhizhi, you've gotten quite a bit fatter recently."
She estimated it should be that Maid Xiao Xi fed quite a lot. Otherwise, how could Zhizhi's weight suddenly beco so exaggerated? Body type becoming so plump.
Previously, she could grasp the entire Zhizhi with one hand. Now, even though she'd made her fingers slightly more slender through Disguise Magic, she couldn't completely grasp Zhizhi.
Definitely, during this period when she wasn't here, Zhizhi had been raised too fat by Maid Xiao Xi.
But an overly fat and heavy body type also wasn't good for this kind of small pet. Who knows, one day while running around, various conditions might appear in the body due to the excessively obese body, and it'd croak.
"Starting now, Zhizhi isn't allowed to eat so much. Every day, you must diet to a certain degree and maintain exercise. Did you hear?"
"Squeak squeak squeak! (Not fair, not fair!)"
Clearly, White Emperor ate far more things than it. Why not also make White Emperor diet together!
"Zhizhi, be obedient. Otherwise, tonight you can wait to sleep on the floor!"
She planned to sleep right here tonight, sleeping together with these small pets and plants of hers.
"Squeak squeak..."
Tossing Zhizhi aside, she suddenly noticed a maid in the corner had been observing her the entire ti.
"Hey, you over there, co over for a mont."
The Little Princess waved at her. The maid hiding in the corner was sowhat timid, but before long, she still walked before the Little Princess.
"Lady Liuli... uh... Princess Liuli?"
"No need to call Princess."
"Yes! Lady Liuli!"
Her current identity also wasn't any princess. She was just her cheap Father the King's illegitimate child from outside. Theoretically, although she belonged to the royal family's princess, the identity she'd fabricated wasn't!
"Is there sothing? You've been watching over there."
"Nothing... just sowhat curious."
She was curious why this Lady Liuli was so affectionate with First Princess's pets.
"Curious? Curious about White Emperor and Zhizhi?"
"No, no, no... just curious about you, Lady Liuli..."
"Curious about ? What's there to be curious about ?"
"Because... this is the first ti I've seen you, Lady Liuli! Previously, I'd always thought your existence was just a rumor. I didn't expect it was actually real..."
"Of course I'm real. Could news spreading from the royal family possibly be fake?"
The Little Princess's entire person lay prone on White Emperor's body, looking up at this small maid.
"Ah, no... mainly very curious about your relationship with Princess... that is, Princess Mo."
"Relationship?"
She truly hadn't thought about this in advance. Sowhat miscalculated. If she said she didn't know her, then White Emperor and Zhizhi being so clingy to her right now would be hard to explain.
She stroked her chin and thought, then spoke:
"Count it as a sisterly relationship as close as siblings. Usually, the people I have exchanges with, aside from Father the King, are only Mo and Xiao Xi, plus these small animals."
Saying this, her gaze contained tender affection as she gently smoothed White Emperor's fur.
"Roar ow..."
"Is that so... but I don't think I've ever seen you here?"
"Previously, this entire area was always managed by Mo, wasn't it? At that ti, I still frequently ca over. But after Mo left for Scarlet Phoenix Nation, I haven't really co out much."
"Alright..."
She also hadn't heard other people ntion it much. Moreover, even His Majesty acknowledged this Lady Liuli, so there definitely was no mistake!
Since that was the case, then probably Lady Liuli had hidden too well. Probably these years had been even worse than Princess Mo's...
She only rembered that Princess Mo being able to firmly stand in her current position was completely killing her way up, killing all the other princes and princesses who threatened her and participated in assassination attempts until not one remained...
But this was only the surface. Actually, at that ti, Princess was still only a 14-year-old child... Forced by the royal family's power struggles to grow to this current extent, truly wasn't easy.
And this Lady Liuli was probably a sacrifice in these royal family mbers' power struggles, right?
"Then Lady Liuli, if you have any matters, feel free to order !"
"Mm."
The Little Princess nodded.
"Were you brought up by Xiao Xi?"
"Ah... yes. Senior Yu Xi promoted here to manage Princess's bedroom and back garden daily. Because after Princess left, Senior Yu Xi frequently stayed by His Majesty's side without much ti to manage."
"Mm."
Although she'd disappear in a few days, having a maid to order around right now was still quite nice. Many things no longer needed her to handle personally.
Moreover, she was promoted by Xiao Xi personally. Then that could prove this small maid counted as Maid Xiao Xi's trusted confidant.
"Your na is?"
"Reporting to Lady Liuli, my na is He Yan."
"He Yan...!?"
She widened her eyes. This na... was the na of one of her forr maids. That was a maid extrely loyal to her, also counted as a personal maid who'd stayed by her side at the sa ti as Maid Xiao Xi.
(PS/Author's Note: For details, see Volu 1, Chapter 42.)
"Good. This na is very good."
The Little Princess patted He Yan's shoulder.
"Did your father give you this na?"
"No. When Lady Yu Xi picked up and brought back, she gave a new na."
Hearing this, the Little Princess's lips curved up. She placed her hand atop He Yan's head and gently stroked, raising an incomparably brilliant smile.
"Work hard. Don't disappoint Xiao Xi's expectations of you."
"Alright..."
She didn't know what the Little Princess ant, but could clearly perceive that her na wasn't simple. It definitely wasn't sothing Maid Xiao Xi casually gave her, but rather contained so special aning.
This also indirectly proved that Maid Xiao Xi truly valued her quite considerably, not just a guiding senior anymore.
Was she treating her as a certain soone...
Thinking of this, she began firming her resolve.
Since Lady Liuli and Lady Yu Xi both especially cared about her and gave extrely superior treatnt, then she also had to work hard to return the care of both ladies!
Perhaps the na "He Yan" also held extraordinary significance to that Princess Mo.
"Alright, go work properly, He Yan."
"Um... reporting to Lady Liuli, I've already completed my work."
He Yan replied.
Mo: "......"
To be honest, her work was still very relaxed. Most importantly, she was responsible for Princess Mo's bedroom and this garden's environntal hygiene. Other leisure ti was relatively free. She could move about freely. As long as she did her proper work during work hours, she could do whatever she wanted.
Of course, the premise was not damaging royal family interests, and also not casually making destruction.
"Then do you want to pet the cat here with ?"
The Little Princess pointed at White Emperor lying prone on the grass and asked He Yan.
"Eh? Is this okay? Won't Princess get angry?"
"She won't. My aning is her aning. After you touch it this ti, it will rember you. Afterward, it won't be fierce toward you."
"Alright..."
He Yan cautiously extended her hand. When preparing to touch White Emperor, she was frightened by White Emperor's gaze and shrank back.
The Little Princess was sowhat speechless. So she directly took action, grabbing He Yan's hand and pressing it on White Emperor's head.
"Eep..."
"Roar... ow~"
