Chapter 1625: Scout for information in 1624
Samiyi said, “Don’t ntion it, these are all duties I am obliged to perform.”
Busodi gave a slight nod, then said to the King, “Your Majesty, I have said all I needed to say, please allow to leave now, as I still need to go back and prepare a few things.”
Both the King and Samiyi couldn’t wait for him to leave, yet from the mont Busodi entered to when he finished speaking, no more than five minutes had passed. Having waited nearly an hour, only to listen to him speak for less than five minutes, could this man really be Busodi?
“Alright, go ahead,” the King said, “Be safe on your way.”
Busodi bowed to His Majesty the King very politely, then left the palace with elegant steps.
Once he saw him off, Samiyi turned back to the King and said, “It’s been many years since I’ve seen him this polite, his deanor seems unreal.”
“The man is off, but he certainly hasn’t forgotten his manners,” replied the King.
“Don’t forget, Busodi is also royalty,” Samiyi added, “Whatever education we received, Busodi received the sa.”
“Mm,” the King then said, “Regarding Busodi’s request, what do you plan to do?”
Samiyi shrugged her shoulders helplessly and said, “What else can I do? I can only send soone to look after his wife and children. If I have ti, I might even invite them to play inside the palace.”
The King smiled and said, “Didn’t you forbid Monica from entering the palace again?”
“Huh,” Samiyi scoffed, “Now that Busodi has asked to take care of his family, and I have agreed to him, wouldn’t I be breaking my promise if I failed to do so?”
The King offered Samiyi so advice, “You haven’t chatted with the other noble ladies for a long ti, why not host another gathering, and this ti invite a few more people?”
“Will you attend it?” Samiyi asked with so sadness, “You fell ill after attending the poetry gathering last ti, I worry…”
“I won’t be attending,” said the King, “I am about to go back and rest, and I’ll leave the rest for you to handle. There’s no need for a large event, just hold an afternoon tea party, sit with everyone, have a chat, and incidentally gather so information about the outside world.”
Samiyi was startled, “The outside world?”
The King nodded, “Yes, Your Majesty the Queen, you should learn more about the outside world.”
Samiyi complained, “It’s all because of you, my terrible brother, otherwise I wouldn’t be so ignorant.”
The King stood up, gently touched Samiyi’s head, and said tenderly, “Go on, Samiyi, try to have so fun.”
Samiyi counted on her fingers how long it had been since she last rested. It seed ever since the King fell ill, she had not had a good rest. Maybe she should seize this opportunity to rest a bit, and it would be a perfect ti to hear about the news from outside from the rich madams and noble ladies.
After handling urgent official duties, Samiyi arranged for the preparation of the afternoon tea party, and she even inford Tan Rou, hoping that Tan Rou would also attend this tea party.
Tan Rou originally planned to stay in her room and study the locator signals with Zhuang Liu, but once she saw the list of guests invited to the tea party, she imdiately changed her mind.
“Do you know this Alisa?” Tan Rou asked.
Samiyi glanced at the list and said, “I have so impression, her husband seems to be a real estate tycoon. I don’t know much else. This list wasn’t drawn up by , it was sent by Monica.”
“No wonder,” said Tan Rou, “Her husband is just a real estate businesswoman, not a traditional noble, so she shouldn’t be eligible to attend this tea party.”
“It doesn’t matter,” Samiyi said, “I am hosting this tea party with two objectives in mind, one is to relax a bit myself, and the other is to find out what’s happening outside.”
Tan Rou thought this was a good idea, “I’ve t this Alisa; the last ti was in a cafe. I also heard sothing else, but at the ti I was so shocked by Monica and Kudu’s affair that I forgot to tell you.” She wondered if Alisa’s plan had succeeded.
“What is it?” asked Samiyi.
Tan Rou answered, “It’s sothing that concerns you.”
