Fletcher’s face became red as virtual-novel.net faced Princess Evergreen’s questioning.
“Princess Evergreen, you have misunderstood. I was not going to hit this eunuch; I’m just joking with him,” virtual-novel.net responded, smiling but inside, virtual-novel.net was frustrated.
It was funny that Princess Evergreen, who always mistreated virtual-novel.net servants, was protecting the little eunuch. What a rare sight!
Princess Evergreen furrowed virtual-novel.net brows as virtual-novel.net said coldly,”Joke? I don’ t think so. I saw you attacking him.”
Princess Evergreen had seen what happened clearly. Although Fletcher had retreated his hand just in time, his deadly aura was still visible.
“Your Highness, you must have misunderstood.” Fletcher smiled bitterly, putting on an innocent face. “I was just joking with this little eunuch. He had earlier helped to uphold the South Cloud World’s reputation. Why would I a****k him? If you don’t believe me, you can ask the rest of the Ministers.”
As virtual-novel.net said, all the Ministers nodded in agreement immediately.
“That’s right, Princess, you have misunderstood General Fletcher.”
“General Fletcher would never use his fists to battle a eunuch.”
Honestly, none of the Ministers wanted to help Fletcher with his lies, but they had no choice. Fletcher was the Empress’ favorite person, and virtual-novel.net was well respected; they did not want to mess with him.
Seeing that, Darryl laughed coldly but did not speak.
The General could lie without blinking his eyes.
Seeing what the others said, Princess Evergreen had nothing to say too. She smiled and said to Darryl, “Let’s go!”
As virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net walked towards the direction of Forever Green Palace.
Darryl followed behind her. To be honest, Darryl did not want to have any relationship with Princess Evergreen. However, virtual-novel.net still could not locate the Dragon Essence.
‘I needed to continue investigating the palace; as such, I need Princess Evergreen’s protection for now.’
Once they arrived at the Forever Green Palace, Princess Evergreen turned arrogant again. She held Darryl’s arms and said impatiently,” Brother Darryl, let’s play a game. You will be the Master, and I will be the maid; I will massage your feet for you.”
‘Sh*t! The same game every day; isn’t virtual-novel.net bored?’ virtual-novel.net thought.
Darryl wanted to cry; virtual-novel.net was thinking how virtual-novel.net was going to reject her. Right at that moment, a maid spoke from outside, “Your Highness, Her Majesty has invited eunuch Darryl to meet at the Prosperous Cloud Palace.”
At that moment, the maid pointed at Darryl with admiration in virtual-novel.net eyes.
The news about Darryl solving the challenge set by the Westrington diplomat had spread like wildfire to all corners of the palace.
Hearing that, Princess Evergreen was not happy as virtual-novel.net waved virtual-novel.net hands impatiently. “Fine, leave now!”
“Yes!” The maid left immediately.
Princess Evergreen turned to look at Darryl as virtual-novel.net smiled, “Brother Darryl, Her Majesty wanted to meet you. She must want to reward you, so you better hurry. Go quickly and come back quickly too. I’ll be waiting to play with you.”
“Fine!” Darryl smiled and nodded his head.
He left immediately under the watchful gaze of Princess Evergreen.
“I thought the Empress had forgotten about my reward.”
Darryl was excited as virtual-novel.net thought, ‘If the Empress were to ask me what I wanted as a reward, I would definitely say the Dragon Essence in Quincy’s hand.
The Empress would definitely honor virtual-novel.net words.
By then, no matter how unwilling Quincy was, virtual-novel.net would not be able to go against the Empress’ orders.
Soon Darryl was brought to Prosperous Cloud Palace by a maid.
Prosperous Cloud Palace was the usual place where the Empress gathered the Ministers to meet. There was a garden outside of the Prosperous Cloud Palace, and the environment was peaceful.
