Chapter 736: Discovery!!
Translator: Lordbluefire
The moment the Queen uttered these words, the butler was taken aback.
She suddenly didn’t know what to say.
If the Queen knew about Princess Daisy’s situation, she would definitely go to the King for her daughter, and if the King, in his anger, took Princess Daisy away and stopped caring for the royal family, the royal family would be in danger!
The butler’s lifelong duty has been to uphold the dignity and face of the royal family, so her first reaction was to hold on tightly to the King, this saving straw, and not let him slip away.
Therefore, she subconsciously replied, “Oh, the Princess is practicing calligraphy in her room!”
“Practicing calligraphy again.” The Queen stretched lazily, “She loves Chinese culture so much, but why hasn’t she been to China these past few years?”
It was naturally to maintain the face of the royal family!
Since Princess Daisy became the spokesperson for the royal family, her schedule was packed. Where would she find the time to visit China?
The butler grumbled inwardly, but didn’t dare to voice it. She just smiled and remained silent.
The Queen didn’t really expect to get an answer from the butler. After she finished freshening up, she stood up.
The butler anxiously asked, “Your Majesty, where are you going?”
“I’m going to see Daisy.”
The butler’s heart immediately raced.
At this moment, in Daisy’s palace.
Princess Daisy’s arms and legs were all covered with bruises. The little maid was applying medicine to her and couldn’t help but complain, “Your Highness, you’re just too good-natured, and the Queen doesn’t look after you… are you just going to let yourself be bullied?”
Tears began to fall as the maid spoke.
She grew up with Princess Daisy and considered her a sister. Of course, she felt pain for the princess.
Upon saying this, the maid indignantly said, “The Queen is really heartless. She knows you’re in trouble and does nothing to help. She even had the butler bring ointment. Does she mean for you to endure? What kind of mother does that!”
“Enough, stop talking.” When the medicine was being applied, Princess Daisy didn’t flinch, but these words left her a little heartbroken.
She didn’t want to be ignored by her mother either.
But it was better than suffering together.
They were powerless against their fate, with limited ability but great responsibility. What else could they do?
Tears welled up in Daisy’s eyes.
Just then, a voice came from outside the door, “Your Highness, the Queen is here.”
Daisy was slightly stunned, instinctively starting to cover the wounds on her arms and legs.
Today she was wearing a long-sleeved court dress, and she could completely hide the bruises by lowering the sleeves and hem.
The little maid immediately said, “Your Highness, what are you doing? You shouldn’t hide it, you should let her see how heartless she is!”
But Daisy glared at the maid and warned, “No complaints.”
The maid was indignant, but in the face of the princess’s look, she didn’t dare say anything.
At this moment, the Queen walked in.
Upon entering, she seemed to detect the scent in the room. The Queen immediately looked at Daisy, “Why do 1 smell medicine? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?”
Upon hearing this, the maid rolled her eyes. The princess had been punished all day, what did the Queen mean by asking in such a feigned manner?
But Daisy instantly understood her mother’s meaning.
She quickly looked at the butler behind her mother.
The butler immediately lowered her head in guilt.
The ointment was brought in by the butler in the Queen’s name. The Queen had no idea that Daisy had been punished.
Daisy clenched her fists.
The butler was even more nervous. Seeing Daisy look at her, she bit her lip, and suddenly lifted her skirt, intending to kneel and beg for mercy.
But then she heard Daisy’s nonchalant voice, “I’m fine, 1 just had a fall. Mother, why are you here?”
The Queen looked at her suspiciously, “You fell?”
“Yes.” Princess Daisy changed the subject, “Mother, did you drink again last night?”
The Queen immediately coughed in embarrassment, “No, little Daisy, since you’re fine, I’ll go now. You must tell your mother if something happens, understand?”
“I know-”
After the Queen left, the little maid was very puzzled, “Your Highness, why didn’t you tell the Queen the truth?”
Daisy sighed, “What would it change if Mother knew the truth? There would just be one more heartbroken person. If we could stand against the Karl family, it would be okay. But the problem is, our royal family is just a decoration, without power or money…”
She hung her head.
When she found out that her mother didn’t know she was being punished, Princess Daisy felt a moment of joy.
It wasn’t because her mother didn’t love her, but rather, she just didn’t know.
Hence, she chose to endure.
She didn’t blame the butler, and she instantly understood why the butler did what she did. This was because what would change if her mother knew?
In that case, she wanted to let her mother live a bit more carefreely.
She had suffered enough in this life due to her responsibilities, unable to be with the one she loved.
As Daisy was pondering, her phone suddenly rang.
She glanced down and saw it was a video call from Shen Ruojing.
Princess Daisy immediately answered the video call with joy.
There was a spark in Princess Daisy’s eyes, “Teacher Madman, what’s up?”
Shen Ruojing was going to ask about the main issue, but her sharp eyes noticed something was wrong with Princess Daisy.
Shen Ruojing’s voice suddenly became cold, “You’ve suffered a beating!”
