Chapter 163: Lilia’s Thoughts!

Although the voices of the pa.s.sers-by were very low, she still heard them.

However, she didn’t care.

It seemed that these vicious curses didn’t leave any ripples in her heart.

Of course, she didn’t really mind, so there were no ripples.

The s.p.a.cious carriage was filled with luxurious details.

Many seemingly casual utensils were made of very precious materials.

In particular, there was a hollow ball hanging in the middle of the carriage. A faint fragrance was emitted from the ball and spread throughout the entire carriage.

However, because of the magic array patterns, it couldn’t spread out at all.

Smelling this fragrance, it was enough to make people feel refreshed.

It was as if in the depths of summer, in the midst of the sea of flowers of the violet orchid, a gust of cold wind was blowing.

Blowing the flowers, bending over, blowing the sea of flowers up and down, making one feel comfortable.

This was a unique fragrance that the Emperor of the Empire had specially searched for in the mainland in order to please her. It had taken three years and was made from many of the best spices in the world.

Its value was so precious that just the time spent in her carriage alone, the value of all the spices used was equivalent to the lifetime savings of a tier-5 mage.

And such luxurious spices were only for her to use!

It could be said that he doted on her very much.

The carriage moved forward slowly and did not sway at all.

At this moment, an old maid who was standing in the corner of the carriage stood out and knelt at her feet. She said in a low voice, “Madam, we don’t have a token to enter and exit the palace. We will be stopped by the imperial guards when we reach… Should we inform His Majesty in advance? His Majesty will definitely come out to welcome us personally when he finds out!”

Hearing these words, the woman raised her eyes slightly.

After a while, her cherry lips parted slightly and she said, “His Majesty is busy with many matters every day. Logically speaking, I shouldn’t have invited His Majesty to come personally. He can just send a general manager.”

Her voice was very pleasant to the ear, like the wind chimes under the eaves. It was clear and carried a hint of laziness.

In the laziness, there was a gentleness and elegance.

During this time, it was mixed with the fragrance of the violet orchid. When one heard it, they could not help but imagine it.

“But…”

At this point, she added, “I heard that His Majesty’s little daughter has returned?”

As she spoke, the woman who was sitting on the soft couch casually picked up a fresh fruit from the fruit plate on the table and began to eat.

The old maid was very observant as she held a handkerchief with both hands and took the woman’s fruit sh.e.l.l.

Then the old maid lowered her head and said, “I understand.”

“Well, go…”

The woman waved her hand and became lazy again,

She closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.

As for the old maid, she called a guard to enter the palace to report, and the carriage stopped unconsciously.

Just outside the palace.

Waiting for the welcome of His Majesty and Her Highness.

…

In Lilia’s castle.

Lilia was reading a book in the courtyard.

On the table next to her was the list of the winners of the previous compet.i.tion sent by the Magic Alliance.

According to the tradition of previous years…

The top 32 young mages in these battles would be awarded t.i.tles by the Empire.

The top three were Viscounts.

The middle 12 were Barons.

The ones behind were all Lords.

In addition, apart from the different t.i.tles, the size of each newly promoted n.o.ble’s fiefdom would also be different according to the ranking.

These t.i.tles might not seem big.

But one must know that this was a t.i.tle that the Empire had personally awarded.

Ever since Lilia started to manage the affairs of the Empire, the number of t.i.tles awarded by the Empire each year had been decreasing.

The Empire had such a vast territory, but the number of t.i.tles granted by the Empire each year was only about ten on average.

Most of them were low-level t.i.tles such as Lords and Barons.

It was precisely because of this that the value of t.i.tles in the Empire became more and more important.

The first three were Viscounts, but they were even more precious than the Counts conferred by the Dukes and d.u.c.h.esses!

The Magic Alliance had sent them up for Lilia to see.

If there were no problems, they could be approved.

However, Lilia was lazy and did not pay attention to them for the time being.

While Lilia was reading, Maggette suddenly jogged closer.

Although he was old, he was very powerful, so he was still very fast when he moved.

When he came to the courtyard and saw Lilia, he first bowed and then said, “Your Highness, that person… Has already arrived outside the palace. His Majesty is ready to welcome her. Also, please come and welcome her.”

The person that Maggette was talking about was the woman that His Majesty doted on very much.

Her position in the palace was very special, and she did not have any status.

Therefore, she could only be called ‘that person’ in the palace.

Lilia did not raise her head. “No,” she said in a low voice.

Lilia’s voice was very calm.

However, the coldness in her voice made Maggette’s hair stand on end. He felt a chill down his back.

“Yes!”

Maggette did not dare to say anything more. He lowered his head and answered, preparing to leave.

At this moment, Lilia said carelessly, “Take all the doc.u.ments on the table and let His Majesty read them.”

“The young mages who won the Grand Magic Compet.i.tion are the pillars of the Empire. He can’t neglect them.”

“His Majesty needs to give a reply as soon as possible.”

“Also… I remember that person had been living outside the palace, right?”

When he heard this, Maggette was even more shocked.

This doc.u.ment had been placed in front of Lilia for half a day, but Her Highness had not given any instructions.

And now that that person was about to return to the palace, His Majesty was ready to welcome her with Her Highness.

But Her Highness did not go, and she still wanted to send this doc.u.ment to His Majesty.

The meaning behind these words was clearly that she wanted His Majesty to also be in the palace and not appear in front of that woman.

As for Her Highness’ last words…

Maggette’s mind spun rapidly, trying to figure out what Princess Lilia meant.

Suddenly, he seemed to feel the gaze of Lilia. He raised her head subconsciously and saw Princess Lilia squinting her eyes.

Maggette’s body trembled, and he woke up as if cold water had poured down from his head.

“I understand what you mean, Your Highness,” he said tentatively and doubtfully.

“I remember that there is a long-abandoned storeroom in the palace. Although it’s a little poor, it’s still big. She can clean it up and live in it.”

Lilia nodded slightly. Then, her eyes fell on the book, and she continued reading.

Seeing that Lilia had no other instructions, Maggette took his leave respectfully.

After leaving the small courtyard, Maggette heaved a long sigh of relief. There was a hint of fear on his face.

He wiped his back, only to find that he had already been soaked in cold sweat.
