Chapter 157 Anecdotes about the Princess and the Little Mermaid (17)
We found him so quickly?!
Ji Ge's heart moved slightly, and Wen Ruan replied: "I understand."
The maid nodded to her and led Ji Ge towards the palace where the queen lived.
Darlene was sitting in the palace. When she saw Ji Ge walking in slowly, she quickly stood up and went to greet him, saying affectionately: "Sheryl is here."
"Mother," Ji Ge curled her lips and said with a smile, "Why did the queen suddenly summon me?"
"That's what I said," the queen covered her lips and smiled: "Sheryl is the most precious treasure of the queen mother, and the queen misses you all the time."
Ji Ge calmly took a step back, noncommittal.
After saying a few polite words, the queen finally got to the point: "I heard that you and Philip met in the garden today?"
"Well," Ji Ge said generously, "Phillip saved me before, but I haven't thanked him properly yet."
The queen secretly took a look at Ji Ge. Seeing Ji Ge's open face, the smile on her lips deepened: "Ashley has also reached the age of getting married. What do Sheryl think of Phillip?"
"My sister is still young, so I'm afraid she doesn't want to get engaged now." Ji Ge could see what the queen was thinking at a glance and was vague.
"Ashley is not young, and she doesn't have to get married so early. The two of them can get engaged first," the queen disagreed: "She listens to you, and Sheryl can help persuade Ashley."
"Okay," Ji Ge stroked the lace pattern on the corners of her sleeves. The complicated and exquisite layers of lace made the girl's arms more slender and whiter. Her wrists were so fragile that they were like weak flower branches that would break as soon as they were broken: "I will do my best.
Complete the tasks assigned by your mother."
The queen said a few more words of encouragement, then played a silent song and left.
Ji Ge didn't waste any time and returned to the palace.
Ashley was waiting for her in the room. Seeing the reluctant expression on her face, Ji Ge estimated that the queen had already told Ashley about Philip.
"Sister," Ashley's eyes lit up, she rushed over to hold Ji Ge's arm, and said gloomily: "Why is the queen mother so anxious to get me married?!"
The girl's tone was filled with annoyance.
——Of course, he wants to recruit the power of the Philip family.
*
Before Darlene, the king had another wife, the mother of the original owner. She was from an old aristocratic family and had a noble status. Unfortunately, she was weak and died of a cold not long after giving birth to the original owner.
And now this queen was met by the king when he went out to fight. Although her background was not obvious, her beauty was amazing. The king fell in love with her at first sight and soon married her as his queen.
Darlene was good at disguising, and ostensibly treated the original owner as her own. While winning the respect of the king, she quietly installed influence in the court, and her own power gradually grew.
Such a person naturally has a lot of ambition.
Darlene wanted to push Ashley to the position of crown prince, but it was too difficult for her to do it alone, so she needed to seek outside help.
Philip and the power of the family behind him were immediately taken by the queen.
However, it is worth mentioning that Ashley did not inherit the queen's strategy and wisdom at all. She had a carefree personality and really treated the original owner as a sister, and she never thought about becoming the crown prince.
The system has said that it will reduce the difficulty of the plane, so Ji Ge's mission was completed very smoothly. There is no conflict between her identity in this plane and the male and female protagonist, and it is completely possible to cooperate and win-win.
Calculating time, almost half a month has passed since the shipwreck, so the hero and heroine should have been rescued.
