Lady of the Lord From the East

Chapter 58

Everyone in the capital knew that Queen Mirabelle liked luxury, especially all kinds of jewelry and gorgeous clothes, and she was always willing to spend money on it.

But if you pay attention, you will know that the queen's fortunes in recent years have not been very good. This kind of bad is not only reflected in her unfavorableness but also in her consumption.

As a princess, and a princess who has married a great country, even if she is not married to a king or a prince, she is still the intended future duke, and she is also one of the heirs to the Prady throne—if not, Mirabelle would also be. Won't marry him - Mirabelle also came with a large dowry at the time.

But Mirabelle has been married to Prady for ten years. She doesn't know how to run a business and has not inherited a big inheritance from her husband. She doesn't know how to restrain herself. It's almost a splurge, and if it wasn't for marrying the king, she couldn't support her current standard of living at all.

However, in recent years, the king has become more and more indifferent to her, and the reward is naturally less. Without the reward, the queen will have no income.

Although the queen has regained the king's favor recently and her rewards have also increased, most of them are luxury items such as jewelry, which are valuable, but it is impossible for the queen to sell them.

For the birthday banquet, the queen naturally needs to prepare a suitable dress. Although the king is willing to pay the fee, because the queen's taste is as luxurious as ever, to declare to everyone that she has regained the king's favor, her customized dress has exceeded the king's gift. She had to subsidize part of her expenses, and these subsidies used up all her remaining gold coins.

In the Queen's view, poverty is only temporary. When the banquet is over, all the gifts will belong to her, and she will have money by then, so don't worry about using it now.

But when she ran out of money, the queen realized that she had run out of essential oils, and if she wanted to buy them now, she didn't have enough money.

This made Mirabelle, who was used to no one using essential oils for maintenance and incense, and who had recently increased the dosage, how could she bear it.

After punishing the maid she thought did not fulfill her duties, Queen Mirabelle couldn't wait to see the birthday present prepared by the Earl Williams family.

But the Count Felix Williams, who was once a little knight, clearly lived up to her expectations.

"Hasn't the gift from Sardinson County arrived yet?"

"Yes, yes, Your Highness." The maid who replied was uneasy, afraid that such an answer would attract the Queen's anger.

The queen angrily threw off the cup at hand, and the pottery cup fell to the foot of the maid. The maid was startled but did not dare to escape, and the debris splashed onto her ankle and drew a bloodstain.

Fortunately, the sound of the water glass breaking not only the guards at the door but also several noble ladies who were in charge of accompanying the queen.

here we go again.

This sentence flashed in everyone's heart.

Recently, the queen has to lose her temper every day, and everyone around her is used to it.

Fortunately, Queen Mirabelle still knows how to restrain her temper in front of various noble ladies, so although Her Royal Highness has been angry every day recently, the maid who serves her has not received much punishment.

But the fact that Mirabelle desperately wanted to see Earl Williams of Sardinson as a birthday present because she had no money to buy essential oils, she naturally couldn't say it, so in the eyes of others, it was the queen. Because she has recently regained the king's favor and has become self-willed and arrogant, she naturally harbors a grudge against those who neglect her.
