The dark palace was silent, except for the trees in the garden swaying gently in the wind.

Victor curled up and moaned quietly, today's poison is very powerful, although it will not make people die quickly, but it will be extremely painful.

He didn't expect Vivian's strength to be different from ordinary people, obviously she was a delicate and frail aristocratic lady, but she easily defeated herself who had been training hard for six years.

It's unfair, it's so unfair!

Vivien lay on the bed and closed her eyes, according to Victor's temperament, she would not easily kill anyone else before killing her. However, there is also the possibility of revenge killings, so close monitoring is required.

About half an hour later, Victor walked away holding on to the wall.

The next day, Fia walked in with a large pile of invitations.

Vivien cuts open the envelope with a knife and discovers that all the letters are either about a tea party or a birthday party, which is very troublesome.

"I heard that the queen is not satisfied with Miss Eunice, and has been busy matching the crown prince and Miss Catherine recently." Fia remembered the gossip she had heard in the morning and hurriedly spoke it out.

"Oh, what does the king say?" Vivien was curious.

"Miss Eunice is very pleasing to the king, and not only can she enter the palace at will, but she is also rewarded with jewels."

"It seems that the king has not given up on the crown prince, and Laura, write back to the Granston family, saying that I will be on time for the tea party."

"Yes, miss."

Laura used to reply to Miss before, so she didn't know that Miss had changed, and her notes had already changed.

Laura writes a reply and hands it to Fia, and Vivien looks at the time, she should go and learn tea etiquette so that she doesn't make a mistake and make people laugh at it.

Three days later, the Marquis de Granston reported the tea party, and Vivien got into a carriage to go. As expected, Catherine deliberately joined the crowd at the tea party to taunt Eunice in isolation.

However, after the tea party, the crown prince personally came to pick up Eunice back. The two talked and laughed, and the affection was long, which made Catherine angry.

"What's wrong with your dress?" The crown prince bent down to straighten the hem of Eunice's skirt, and everyone thought it was incredible.

The crown prince is twenty-two years old and has a cloudy personality, and those who anger him will be whipped at least and his hands cut off at worst! Therefore, he is obviously handsome and noble, but few noble ladies like him.

"The maid accidentally spilled it while pouring tea." Eunice patted her skirt unconcernedly.

"If Miss Granston can't even educate her maids, don't hold a tea party in the future, otherwise I will doubt the education level of the Marquis's Mansion!" The crown prince guessed that Eunice had been wronged, so he stared at Catherine coldly and reprimanded.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you are accusing me of the daughter of a down-and-out count?!" Catherine's eyes widened and she asked with a shudder.

Catherine Granston is known as the "Red Rose of the Empire", the daughter of an extremely beautiful marquis, who has loved the crown prince since childhood. Although the crown prince didn't like her, he never got close to other women.

She thought that if she worked harder, she would succeed, but Eunice's appearance shattered her illusions. Because of jealousy, she spread rumors in the royal capital, and today she is looking for someone to humiliate Eunice!

It's not the first time she's done this kind of thing, but whenever a woman approaches the crown prince, she will use all kinds of means to threaten the other party to leave. The crown prince knew what she was doing, but never stopped it.

This led her to believe that she was special in the heart of the crown prince, and that one day she would become the crown princess. It wasn't until this moment that she realized that this man had never had feelings for her all along.

"Miss Eunice is a very important person to me, please apologize to her!"

Catherine reluctantly apologized to Eunice under the threat of the crown prince's cold eyes, and then ran away crying.

The crown prince snorted coldly and led Eunice away, all the people present were famous nobles, and his behavior of not greeting him was arrogant and rude.

However, the other party is the crown prince, and no one dares to raise any objections, and some people even think that the crown prince's protection of Miss Eunice is very romantic.

Catherine returned to her room and kept smashing things to vent, and the maid was so frightened that she hid far away, for fear that her anger would implicate her.

When she returned to the tea party again, it was already ten minutes later. The ladies made excuses to leave, and Catherine had to contribute the best tea in order to ease the relationship.

"Daughter, I'm sorry to let you see the rude scene, I hope it didn't affect your good mood." Catherine personally sent Vivien to the door, because the status of a duchess was more noble than her.

"It was my first time attending a tea party in the capital, and I was able to learn a lot thanks to Miss Catherine, and I hope to have the opportunity to have tea together next time." Vivien smiled softly.

"The princess is really kind."

"Miss Catherine is also excellent."

After a few brief words, Vivien got into the car and left.

As we passed through the central square, the church bell rang at exactly three o'clock in the afternoon. Vivien stopped the carriage, she wanted to go outside.

Colorful triangular roofs, a large road wide enough for four horse-drawn carriages to run side by side, and rows of shops with colorful signboards.

The fountain in the central square gushes into the sky, and a large number of water droplets glisten in the sun. People are dressed up cleanly, whether they are in a hurry or strolling guests, all are quiet.

"Miss, I heard that there is a theater troupe performing in the thirteenth district, but it is a civilian square, do you want to go and see it?" Fia's eyes lit up when she heard from people nearby say that there was a performance.

"Let's go check it out." Vivien was curious, too.

In the royal capital, districts 1 to 10 were rich areas, and more than double digits were commoners, and the nobility disdained to set foot there.

In the Empire, the hierarchy of commoners and nobles was very strict. Without the permission of the nobles, Ping Ming could not talk, let alone walk beside the nobles, otherwise it would be regarded as an attack.

As they walked through the cobweb-like alley, they finally came to the 13th arrondissement square. There are fountains there, too, but they have long since dried up. There are no glittering shops, surrounded by dense stalls, and the stall owners are shouting one after another.

The knight looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but be vigilant.

There are a lot of fish and dragons here, and they have to protect the princess and daughter. However, when the originally happy stall owner saw them, his joy suddenly turned to fear.

Vivien wanted to play games, eat snacks everywhere, and untie her tight corset.

"Let's go change our clothes." She said.

"Miss, if this is seen—" Anne shook her head hurriedly, if it was known that Miss Duke's appearance in the civilian square, and she was still wearing civilian clothes, it would definitely be big news tomorrow.

"Don't worry, how many people in the royal capital know me?"

Vivien walked into a shabby clothing store, bought a blue maid outfit to change into, braided her hair into two long braids, and took off the jewelry on her body.

The four knights were also forced to change their uniforms and wear gardeners' clothes. This became a scene of a secret tryst between the young maid and the gardener, and sure enough, it never caught anyone's attention again.

A group of seven wandered through the bustling market, listening to artisans introduce rattling dolls, buy elaborate paintings, and sample impromptu snacks.

After eating and drinking, Vivien walked to the amphitheater, where an orchestra and dancing girls performed. A young man in a top hat collects donations from onlookers while advertising loudly.

"Welcome to our performance, next is the pantomime performance, I hope you will pay more attention!"

Vivien was curious about pantomime, so she dragged Fia and Anne to the show, and the four knights followed.

In front of the small square, seven or eight mime actors dressed as elves began to perform circuses and magic tricks, and the crowd erupted in deafening cheers.

Vivien was so immersed in the show that she forgot about the passage of time.

The sky darkened unconsciously, and Vivien planned to leave the plaza. Just as they were passing through the dark alley, they saw someone arguing.

"Let go of me, what do you want!" The girl's shrill voice pierced the night sky, and Vivien felt familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere.

"Slut, if it weren't for your looks, you wouldn't have the qualifications to talk to me!" The fat man was angry and pinched the girl's cheek.

"I advised you, but you yourself are obsessed." The girl suddenly grabbed the man's arm, and then slammed the other man to the ground with a turn.

Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly heard applause not far away. The applauding man was extremely handsome, but his attitude of watching the fire from the other side made the girl angry.

"What was your name just now?" The man took the initiative to speak.

"Why should I tell you!" The girl replied angrily.

"One hundred silver coins!"

"Don't even think about it!"

"What about a hundred gold coins?"

"Do I look like a man with no money?"

After the girl finished speaking, she left indignantly, and the man couldn't help laughing, and muttered, "This woman is so funny." ”

Vivien suddenly remembered, isn't this the first meeting between the heroine and the second prince? In this world, as long as it is a young and handsome man, almost all of them will be attracted to the heroine.
