Early the next morning.
Anxi put on her maid's dress and stood outside the door of Wu's room with all the maids early.
The tea party this afternoon seems to be very important and needs to be decorated carefully.
The maids lined up, holding trays with bottles of perfume, brooches and various clothing.
Anxi was assigned a black flower-sleeved shirt. She held the shirt in her hands and stood there bored.
"Ha..." An Qian couldn't hold back her sleepiness and secretly yawned.
"Pay attention to your manners." the head maid reminded. She looked at Anxi's every move with disgust and couldn't figure out why the butler asked her to be His Highness's personal maid.
Anxi closed her mouth and lowered her head to hide her sleepiness.
She slept a little late last night because of the two dolls. The servants in the castle still had to get up early for work, so she was now in a state of sleep deprivation.
"Dong dong dong——" The clock tower rang the full hour bell.
"Okay, it's time." The head maid heard the bell, turned to face the maids and said, "Get ready, today's tea party is very important."
After saying that, the head maid turned around, walked to the door, and knocked on the door.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry."
The head maid opened the door and walked in, followed by a series of maids who also entered the room.
In the room, Wu must have woken up early.
"Your Highness." The head maid called Wu, but Wu did not respond.
He sat in bed in a daze, staring blankly at the garden scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling window. The early morning sunlight fell on his unmodified and pure face. It was less of the usual magnificence and more of purity, just like a painter's strokes of painting. Gray tone oil painting.
However, Anxi was not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery in front of her, and she couldn't help but yawn secretly.
But the almost inaudible yawn was caught by Wu, who was sitting on the bed in a daze.
He suddenly turned his head to look at Anxi's position. After staring at Anxi for a moment, he suddenly blushed and turned his head away from looking at her.
What is this doing?
Anxi's head was filled with questions.
Did you find that the charming and seductive route was not working, so you switched to the innocent little white flower route?
"Your Highness." The head maid spoke again, interrupting Wu's hesitation.
"Please start trying on clothes." The head maid motioned to the maid behind her to come forward.
Wu nodded, stood up from the bed, and stood on the soft carpet.
The maids gathered around and began to try on Wu's clothes one by one.
This tea party was of great importance for some reason. Wu put on and took off his clothes and tried them on from early morning to noon.
Finally, I chose a white stand-up collar dress with a chrysoberyl brooch. One side of the hair is combed behind the ear, which looks dignified and elegant. This outfit has a bit of a Prince Charming feel, and is slightly different from Wu Pingri's image. .
After tidying up her appearance, the head maid spoke again: "Your Highness, please go to the garden to wait for Her Majesty the Queen, and meet the guests who have already arrived."
"Yeah." Wu had no objection.
He took the lead to walk towards the door. When he passed by Anxi, who was waiting with a group of maids, he showed a shy look. After glancing at Anxi quietly, he quickly avoided it, like a girl in love for the first time. .
What are you doing? What are you doing?
An Qian was really confused. She felt that Wu was really weird today. Could it be that she kicked him stupid last night?
Wu coughed lightly, covered his red ears with his hands, and walked out of the room.
The head maid followed closely behind, and she chose Anxi and another maid to follow.
The garden path is winding, but the fragrance of flowers lingers.
Tulips of various colors are noble and elegant, like the buds of a crown, symbolizing extremely noble status.
"Wu."
As they approached the garden, a moon-white figure appeared on another path.
She has long flaxen hair, crimson eyes, and a cold expression, as if she has no attachment to the world.
It's another heir: Fei.
Wu noticed Queen Fei, lowered his head and bowed slightly.
"No need." Fei waved his hand gently, "Although I am your sister in name, you will soon become the master of this castle, so don't lower your head to salute me."
Wu lowered his head and replied: "Not necessarily, no one can guess what Her Majesty the Queen is thinking."
Fei turned to stare at Wu, his eyes calm and unwavering: "Her Majesty the Queen likes you very much, Wu."
"..." Wu did not respond.
Fei continued: "Your talent has been evident since childhood. Wu, you are destined to become the glory of the family, and I hope you can maintain the glory of the family."
Anxi followed the appearance of the other maids, lowering her head and pretending to be air.
From this conversation, it sounds like Fei supports Wu's rise to power, and... Her Majesty the Queen likes Wu very much?
Wu's heartfelt words last night made An Qian think that Wu had little chance of winning, and she began to think about how to escape. But today she was told that Wu was actually the favorite to win the championship, and he still had backup.
"Can everything be inherited from the family?"
The conversation between Fei and Wu was interrupted by a voice not far away.
A figure slowly walked in from the path where Wu was standing, it was Karl.
He was wearing a dark gray dress today with a sapphire belt around his waist. He looked reserved and noble, but the bruises on his face made him particularly embarrassed.
"Karl, watch your words." Fei scolded Karl calmly.
Karl glanced at Fei with disdain: "Fei, your grandfather was just the lowest baron. If he hadn't climbed onto Her Majesty's bed with some beauty, do you think you are qualified to talk to me now?"
"Shut up." Wu's originally gentle eyes turned sharp and he stared at Karl sharply.
"Ha." Karl smiled contemptuously, showing no fear of being beaten by Wu Bao.
Wu took a step forward, and Karl moved forward not to be outdone. The atmosphere instantly became tense, and a fight between the two was about to break out.
"What are you doing waiting here?"
An extremely coercive and charming voice suddenly appeared.
Everyone on the spot was shocked. The head maid was the first to react. She bent down deeply, and the other maids on the side also bent at 90 degrees and said in unison: "Your Majesty the Queen."
Wu and Karl also stopped the tense atmosphere for an instant.
They leaned forward slightly and said, "Your Majesty the Queen."
"There is no need to be so formal." Her Majesty said.
"yes."
Everyone responded and straightened up.
Only then could Anxi see with her own eyes this mysterious Her Majesty the Queen, who had not appeared until now.
However, this glance made Anxi confused.
The impression of the queen in Anxi's mind should be what the silver-haired woman in the portrait looked like when she was old.
But the person standing in front of him was a tall and thin young woman with jet black hair. Her facial features and figure did not match the person in the portrait.
Only those pure white pupils shine as sharply as the diamonds in the portrait.
