It seems that the pond where Jill jumped into was located near the palace where the Natalier princess lived.
When Natalie returned with Jill, she quickly instructed the panicked ladies to take a bath with her and even lent her clothes.
I don't mind, but I don't want a girl like you to defile the palace. You don't want to catch a cold,
Natalye says, turning away from him, and Jill blinks her eyes.
She's a good person, yes. (Nice guy, yes, a bit dull.)
I'm pretty sure she was sixteen now. Jill, who was trying to remember her career from her former memories, noticed her outfit after she pulled the black dress over her head.
It is not only a good idea to have a good time, but it is also a good idea to have a good time. The lace peeking out from the hem of the skirt, which spread out softly. Together with it is a white apron.
I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this ...... dress by way of a samurai's maid of honor.
"What? What are you complaining about? The only clothes a girl your age has are servants' clothes. Or are you asking me to lend you my little dress?
With a glare from Natalie in the continuing parlor, Jill shook her head.
I'm just saying that there are kids my age who already work in this palace. It's just that I was wondering if there are already kids my age working in this palace: ......
I don't know what you're talking about. Didn't they gather you in the castle because you're under fourteen years old?
Her cheeks tugged at the familiar age limit because she forced herself to keep her mouth shut. I don't know how she felt about it, but the corners of Natalie's eyebrows, which had been raised, dropped slightly.
...... Well, it's tempting to die. It's not hard to see why. I came here to work, but in reality I'm a potential consolation prize for the emperor, who is a hobbyist child.
What does that mean?" he managed to stifle a shout.
You know, all three of you are not good at this. You are pretending to be the palace maidservant, but in reality you are a gift to the emperor. There was a rumor that he had a taste for girls to begin with, but because he openly announced his marriage to an 11-year-old in his speech the other day, he has been attracting girls from all over the place.
"No ...... words, no ......
So much for the listead bemoaning the financial difficulties. The recruitment of maidservants and servants would not be allowed by Hadith and her friends. But the support from the family for the queen in the palace's back palace is different. So they are probably using that as an excuse to send their handmaidens under the age of fourteen to the imperial castle.
(Well, I was under the age of 14 and I really came to you as the dragon queen, so you thought I had a real taste for young girls. ......)
There are a lot of things I would like to get into, such as the fact that Hadith has no reason to look for a bride under the age of 14 since she has Jill in the first place. However, the apron is a trap, but the last thing you want to do is get stuck with a young girl's taste. There is no longer any dignity of the emperor.
Jill, who had grown weary, had a sympathetic look on her face, and Natalie, perhaps out of pity, brought her a chair.
I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. I'll make you a cup of tea. And I have sent some sweets for you.
"Really?! Thank you!
"You guys, just get out of here.
Natalye, shooing away the maidservants who had finished preparing sweets and tea, sat down on a seat near Jill and asked a small question: "Why not?
'If you insist, I can help you.
Jill's voice trailed off.
"Help, sir?
"Because you're a bit of a wake-up call. I've saved you, remember? I can let you work here. I can handle one person. I'm a princess. I can get in and out of the Rear Palace.
After huffing and puffing back at Natalie, I realized I hadn't told her my name yet.
In Natalie's mind, Jill has become 'the child who came to work in the palace, but when she found out she was going to be offered up to the emperor, who had a taste for young girls, she planned to commit suicide by entering the water'.
"Oh, I mean, His Royal Highness Princess Natalie. Actually, I--
"Natalie, sweetheart. ...... okay?
At the sound of a bird's call, Jill couldn't help but turn around and keep her mouth shut.
A small girl was peeking through the slightly open door. She had fluffy golden hair and big purple-blue eyes. She had a large stuffed animal in her arms - a stuffed white tiger with a long tail.
"Frida, what's wrong? Come in!
Jill blinked at the names that Lysteard would occasionally give her.
She's only eight years old, the third princess, as I recall. She is Listead's own sister, who says she is afraid of Hadith and won't come out.
When Natalie beckons me to join her, Frida shakes her head and replies in a small way.
'A stranger ......'
"Oh, is it me?
When Jill asked back, it was enough to make Frieda hide behind the door. It seems that Lysteard's reputation for shyness is true.
It's okay, Frieda. It's okay, Frida, she'll be working for us from now on.
"...... is so ......? ......?
When you look up at me timidly, it's hard to tell the difference.
"Well, ...... I'm just listening to the story first, yes.
We have candy. Come on. Don't be afraid, she's the princess.
At last, at the beckoning of her half-sister Natalie, Frieda came into the room, fearful as a small animal.
