“Yes! Your Highness! Our young lady suffered burns because of the maids at Tiaze Palace.”
“No, is this a safe place?”
The courtier jumped higher, trying to stop the governess. But Leopold had already heard everything.
“…Wait. Burns because of the maids? What does that mean?”
It was an incredibly indifferent voice. The voice was so quiet that there was almost no worry, and the governess shivered with fear.
The deep blue eyes stared through the governess’s inner thoughts. Instinctively, the governess huddled her body. At the same time, the words the young lady had said earlier came to her mind.
Bang!
When the scream erupted, the governess leaped into the reception room. She couldn’t repeat what had happened in the Imperial Palace last time.
However, what unfolded before the governess’s eyes was different from her concerns.
“Sa, save me, Your Grace.”
The petite maid, holding a teapot, knelt in front of Maria, trembling. The front of the maid’s apron was soaked as if she had missed the teapot.
On the other hand, with just a few drops of tea splashing onto her arm, Maria grimaced, wrapping her arm around herself. At the same time, when Viscountess Sophron rushed to call the palace, Maria secretly whispered to the governess in the room where only the two were left.
“The governess quickly go to His Highness the Prince. Remember the courtier who accepted money before? The one who delivered the letter. Yes. Tell him somehow through that courtier that I got injured.”
Even in her haste, the governess quickly calculated the options.
“If that’s not possible…”
“If that’s not possible, somehow bring His Highness the Prince to Tiaze Palace.”
When Maria, who had sighed lightly while staring into the distance, looked at the governess again, her doll-like beautiful face sank colder than anyone else.
The governess vividly remembered what the young lady had said at that time.
“…Because of His Highness the Prince, how Maria is treated. Leopold should know. At least, Your Highness should clearly explain who the owner of Tiaze Palace is.”
So, the governess had nothing to do but desperately convey it with the most desperate and sad face.
“Tiaze Palace’s maids have been looking down on our young lady and insulting her for a long time. This time, let our young lady choose and arrange the palace for His Highness the Prince as she pleases!”
But with her head bowed, the governess didn’t know. When Leopold’s face, shrouded in doubt, heard the last words, it froze coldly.
“…I should make a brief stop at Tiaze Palace first.”
Having achieved her goal, the governess could only be pleased.
And at that moment, in the deepest recesses of Tiaze Palace.
On the bed in the prince consort’s bedroom, where only the prince consort could enter, Maria Etel lay.
Viscountess Sophron looked at Maria Etel with a stiff face. Maria raised the corners of her mouth charmingly.
“If you had done this earlier, I wouldn’t have had to bear the blame for that child.”
Those sharp eyes turned toward the corridor. The petite maid kneeling in the corridor trembled.
A low-ranking maid with neither title nor wealth. Since she brought the tea pot, this trouble was bound to happen.
Today was a very lucky day.
Maria smiled brightly.
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
