Chapter 545: Dream
Translator: Lordbluefire
Shen Ruojing raised her eyebrows.
She glanced in the direction of the main hall and saw that Jing Zhen hadn’t come out, so she understood what was going on.
She smiled and helped Yu Jing up by her arm. “Let’s go.”
Yu Jing’s body was trembling uncontrollably, but she still tried her best to stand up and follow the person sent by the Queen Dowager.
As Shen Ruojing followed the group out, she suddenly noticed that Yu Jing had become calmer.
She raised her eyebrows and asked, “Not scared anymore?
‘Scared.” Yu Jing’s voice was still trembling. “But I know that being afraid is useless now that I have to go to the palace. My life is given to me by the royal family, and I must be loyal to them. Even if I’m driven out or beaten to death, it’s not a pity.”
In Country A, the royal power was supreme, and ordinary people had a deep sense of awe for it, even to the point of subservience ingrained in their bones.
Hearing this, Shen Ruojing lowered her eyes and sighed silently.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe didn’t have any illusions about changing a country. After all, the people of Country A were living a prosperous life now, and the royal power had its benefits.
As she was lost in thought, she saw Yu Jing suddenly take out a bag containing a pastry from her pocket. She sneakily ate a piece and noticed Shen Ruojing looking at her. Yu Jing then handed her a piece of it. “This is a green bean pastry made by the imperial chefs in the palace. It’s sold outside as well, but the price is extremely high, a thousand dollars a piece. I was lucky enough to receive one as a reward last time. Before dying, we should at least eat our fill so try a bite.”
Shen Ruojing stared at the pastry in her hand.
It was very clean.
She pinched a piece and put it in her mouth.
Yu Jing smiled. “Isn’t it delicious? This is the best pastry I’ve ever had in my life! You’ve never had anything this tasty in China before, have you?
Shen Ruojing thought that the taste was good but not as amazing as Yu Jing made it out to be. Still, she played along and just said, “Yes, it’s delicious.”
Yu Jing immediately said, “I have one more piece hidden away. If we both get kicked out, I’ll give you my last piece. I don’t know what people from China like, but this pastry can be considered a specialty of our Country A”
Shen Ruojing was infected by her optimism and laughed. “We won’t be driven away.”
But Yu Jing immediately leaned in close. “Why not? Don’t even think about it.
When the Queen Dowager sent someone to call us earlier, I saw His Majesty the King standing by the window. He saw it but didn’t come out to stop it. He has given up on us.’
Shen Ruojing didn’t expect Yu Jing to be so sensitive and was slightly taken aback.
Yu Jing asked, “His Majesty the King has a daughter in China, have you seen her? Since both the Queen Dowager and the King are so good-looking, the princess must be beautiful too. She has been a high and noble person since birth. Actually, I really want to be the princess’s maid because she is the most esteemed woman in the world...’
She put the word “woman” in emphasis, so Shen Ruojing understood.
In Country A, women had a low status, and even consorts were merely tools for marriage alliances between families and the royal family. Only the King’s daughter was truly of noble birth.
Yu Jing spoke with admiration, “The princess must be able to do whatever she wants, and she can work with men and appear in public... Most importantly!” Yu Jing paused slightly. “The princess can eat green bean pastries every day!” Shen Ruojing.
She twitched the corner of her mouth, looking at Yu Jing’s excited face, and couldn’t help but sigh silently in her heart.
As the two were talking, they arrived at the Queen Dowager’s palace.
Upon seeing the palace from afar, the smile on Yu Jing’s face immediately disappeared. She quickly put away the unfinished mung bean pastry in her hand and looked at Shen Ruojing. “Doctor Miss, don’t go against the Queen Dowager later. She is the most terrifying person here!”
After finishing, she looked frightened. ‘They all say that the number of people killed by the Queen Dowager is so high that their bodies could circle the palace!”
Shen Ruojing.
She twitched the corner of her mouth, nodded, and said, “If you want to be a maid of the princess, I will make your wish come true.’
But Yu Jing just laughed at her. ‘Miss Doctor, don’t joke... I know you don’t want me to be so nervous, but it’s okay. I’m already mentally prepared.”
Being expelled today and becoming a maid to the princess?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYu Jing felt that what Shen Ruojing said was a bit far-fetched.
She then lowered her head and continued to enter the palace with Shen Ruojing.
At the entrance, they were greeted by the Queen Dowager’s personal butler. Shen Ruojing had met him in China, so when they met, the butler smiled with a gentle demeanor. “Miss Doctor, you are here.”
The butler didn’t understand why Shen Ruojing wanted to hide her identity, but since the princess wanted to play, the butler would definitely cooperate.
Shen Ruojing nodded.
Yu Jing looked at the butler in panic and then whispered in Shen Ruojing’s ear, “They say that the gentler the butler is to someone, the angrier the Queen Dowager is. Are we going to die today?”
Shen Ruojing.
She quickly walked two steps and distanced herself from Yu Jing.
When they entered the main hall, they heard Luo Sha crying from afar. “His Majesty has humiliated me for two servants, making me lose face and disgracing my family. Father, take me home!”
The head of the Luo family also questioned, “Queen Dowager, do you not need the Luo family anymore? Why do you humiliate us like this? Are these two servants nobler than my daughter?”
Luo Sha continued to cry. ‘His Majesty must hate me too. What’s the point of staying in the palace?”
As soon as these words came out, the Queen Dowager coldly said, “The royal family will not have divorced women, so sending you back home is impossible... Unless you die, you will always be a woman of the royal family.” These words were very imposing, making Luo Sha pause.
The Queen Dowager immediately continued, “Alright, there’s no need to cry. Just say what you want. What do you want exactly? Since Princess Consort Luo was neglected today, how about the King goes to your palace tonight?”
Luo Sha’s face turned red instantly.
The head of the Luo family said, “That would definitely be great. Luo Sha has been waiting for years to serve the King. However... those two servants in the King’s Palace...”
As he was speaking, Shen Ruojing and Yu Jing entered the room..
