Chapter 121
121~ The "Exploding" Little Princess~
"How about it? Do you believe me now?"
The little Princess looked toward the Maid Xiao Xi and asked somewhat proudly.
The Maid Xiao Xi was already speechless...
...
Thus, before long this matter spread like wildfire, and the little Princess was also invited by Gong to the rear garden to drink tea.
"Mo, is this rumor true?"
The little Princess didn't know how to answer...
She seemed to have gotten a bit carried away earlier...
She'd clearly told that mage to keep his mouth tightly shut, but how long had it been? It had directly reached her Father the King's ears.
She'd better not see that mage again, or she'd definitely let that guy know what it meant to repay a drop of "kindness" with a gushing spring of "gratitude"!
Adjusting her mindset, she tried to answer her Father the King in the calmest tone possible:
"It's true."
Since the matter had already reached her Father the King's ears, there was no need for her to continue hiding it.
"..."
After a long silence, Gong slowly spoke:
"Good, worthy of being my daughter!"
Suddenly receiving a head pat from her cheap Father the King, the little Princess didn't react for a moment.
In her memory, this cheap Father the King of hers hadn't used that kind of method for coaxing children on her in a very long while. Now suddenly patting her head as a reward, she actually forgot to swat away this hoof on her head.
"Father the King!"
The little Princess puffed up her cheeks and stared at her cheap Father the King somewhat angrily.
"Uh, sorry, I got too excited for a moment and forgot."
She'd promised the little Princess not to treat her like a child anymore.
"Don't let it happen again."
"Alright, alright, it won't happen again. First tell me what's going on."
The little Princess fell silent for a moment, shifting her gaze to the Maid Xiao Xi beside her. After receiving some encouraging looks, she roughly repeated to her cheap Father the King what she'd explained to the Maid Xiao Xi.
...
...
"I see..."
After listening to the little Princess's explanation, Gong felt somewhat of a headache coming on.
His precious daughter couldn't have been brainwashed by an Evil God, right? Actually speaking up for an Evil God...
However, considering it was personally told by his precious daughter, and observing during the process that his precious daughter showed no abnormalities, he ruled out this possibility. If his precious daughter had been brainwashed by an Evil God, it would be completely impossible for her to reveal this matter.
Perhaps it really was as his precious daughter said, the Evil God was only judged to be an Evil God because of the rules it carried?
"Mo, you go rest first. Let me properly digest this myself."
He truly needed to properly digest this information...
"Mm, then I'll be going?"
After greeting her cheap Father the King, the little Princess pulled the Maid Xiao Xi's hand and left.
Being forced to tell these things to her cheap Father the King before being psychologically prepared put enormous pressure on her!
"Princess, what will you do next?"
Do what? Of course go see Nina and Ainomi. They should be settled in by now. Perfect timing to call the two out to tour Glaze Nation.
"..."
The Maid Xiao Xi following behind remained silent.
"Ah, right, where were they arranged to stay?"
The little Princess asked.
...
...
So what exactly was up with this stinky Xiao Xi today!?
The little Princess was somewhat speechless. She reckoned there wasn't anything between her and Nina and Ainomi. She hadn't done anything either. So why had this stinky Xiao Xi inexplicably gotten angry?
Never mind all that. What was most important right now was first finding Nina to ask how much money she wanted. This was what they'd agreed on initially. No matter how much it was, as long as it was within her ability, she could give it.
Although Glaze Nation's financial resources couldn't compare to Scarlet Phoenix Nation at all, she could still take out within 100,000 Gold Coins to give to Nina.
Although when passing the checkpoint it was Red Leaf who deliberately let her go, she felt that without Nina and Ainomi's help, she fundamentally couldn't have seen Red Leaf. She definitely would have been directly caught by soldiers at the city gate, then tied up and thrown back into that hentai Empress's bedchamber.
That she could come out was still built on the premise of being able to see Red Leaf. Other soldiers would only go by the public announcement and directly keep her there.
"Princess Mo!"
"Mm-hmm, it's fine. I just came to see you two."
"Then many thanks for Princess Mo's concern."
The little Princess turned her head to look at the Maid Xiao Xi.
"Xiao Xi, you go down first. I still have some matters to discuss with Nina."
Wasn't it just coming to take a look...
Although she very much wanted to directly pull her Princess away, limited by status and position, she still followed the little Princess's words and withdrew outside.
"Alright, now it's just us three. Speak freely."
Within the palace, no one dared to eavesdrop unless they were people who didn't value their lives. Although there was no existence of a Great Archmage within Glaze Nation's borders, there were still veteran Archmages, and even one mage who already had half a foot stepped into the Great Archmage level.
The palace had a barrier set up by that Archmage. As long as one wasn't a Great Archmage-level existence, it was impossible to evade this barrier's detection. If someone was eavesdropping, it could be known immediately.
Those people who'd previously infiltrated the royal family also hadn't dared to eavesdrop on any secrets under this barrier...
However, the drawback was it could only perform vague detection, and moreover was only effective against those with ill intentions. This was also why those people who'd previously infiltrated the royal family weren't detected.
"Princess Mo, as far as I know, Her Majesty the Empress seems to be planning to visit Glaze Nation in a while..."
In a while... visit Glaze Nation!
The ahoge on top of the little Princess's head instantly stood up like an exclamation mark.
That hentai Empress was coming over too!? It couldn't be that she wanted to catch her and bring her back, right!?
The little Princess was somewhat afraid. Combined with everything that had happened before, maybe the Empress deliberately let her out just to experience the feeling of personally catching her and bringing her back!
It wasn't that she had some kind of persecution complex, but rather everything the Empress had done to her before forced her to think in this direction.
What if the Empress really was coming to catch her and bring her back...
The facts were just as Gong had predicted. The little Princess instantly exploded upon hearing this news, only he couldn't see his daughter's "exploding" appearance.
"Please calm down, Princess Mo. Her Majesty the Empress only had this plan a few days before you escaped and met with me. Perhaps the situation isn't as bad as you imagine, Princess Mo?"
She knew what the little Princess feared, but could only comfort the little Princess in this way.
If only things really were as Nina said... but she had to prepare for the worst.
