Since Ryan had said so, Shi Xi nodded slightly and accepted Bonita’s good intentions.
Not long after, someone came to look for Shi Xi to ask about the charity banquet.
“I’ll go back and settle some matters first,” Shi Xi said apologetically. 𝐍𝐎𝓥𝖾𝗅𝑛𝗲xt.𝔠𝚘𝔪
Bonita tugged at her skirt and took the initiative to ask Shi Xi, “You, do you need help?”
Shi Xi was slightly stunned. “Hmm?”
“I’ve helped my mother hold a banquet before and attended many palace banquets. Perhaps 1 can help you.” After Bonita finished speaking, she quickly explained with a red face, “1-1 mean that you haven’t attended a palace banquet. I-I didn’t mean that. 1 mean…”
The more Bonita explained, the more confused she became, and her face turned even redder.
Shi Xi smiled faintly. “Sure. It just so happens that 1 don’t have much experience and need someone to guide me.”
Shi Xi indeed had no experience in organizing a charity banquet.
But she was not flustered.
She did not want to be the Queen’s good daughter-in-law, so she did it very perfunctorily and casually. She was just short of writing the word ‘ruined’ on her face.
Now that she had someone to help her, she was naturally willing.
Hua Ruoling stood up and recommended herself, “Then I’ll help too.”
Shi Xi looked over and her suspicious gaze landed on her. “You?”
Bonita was the Duke’s daughter and the First Prince’s childhood sweetheart.
What status did Hua Ruoling have to help too?
Hua Ruoling saw the doubt in Shi Xi’s eyes and was indignant. She said angrily, “I’m from the Finance Department of Imperial Capital University. 1 can help you with the bookkeeping, right?”
Shi Xi paused for a moment. “There’s no need. There’s a butler who keeps accounts.”
The Queen let Shi Xi handle all the affairs, but she sent a butler to keep an eye on them. All the accounts were only for Shi Xi to look through.
Shi Xi did not mind.
Hua Ruoling clenched her fists tightly. Since she was in the palace, she did not dare to vent her anger.
Tao Boli listened from the side and said, “With more people helping, the Princess Consort can be less worried.”
Bonita also spoke up for her friend. “That’s right. Ruoling has accompanied me to many banquets. She will definitely be able to help!”
Shi Xi shrugged. “Let’s go together then.”
This was the palace.
Shi Xi was looking forward to it.

After the girls left, Tao Boli couldn’t help but look at them.
Ryan looked at Tao Boli. “Teacher Tao, what are you thinking?”
Tao Boli retracted his gaze and said gently, “1 just think that the Princess Consort is very interesting.”
“Shi Xi, she’s quite interesting.” There was a hint of a smile in Ryan’s eyes.
Tao Boli observed Ryan’s expression and said, “The news from the hospital is that the Second Prince’s ankle is broken. Even if he recovers, he will only be a cripple.”
“Then let him rest well in the hospital.” Ryan was in a good mood. “Spread the news. Tell them that the Second Prince wanted to tease the Eldest Princess Consort, but his legs were broken and he can no longer stand up.”
“Alright.” Tao Boli lowered his eyes.
The most widely spread news was that it was 30% true and 70% fake, with a little bit of family ethics, especially when it involved the royal family.
In this way, the Second Prince would not be able to stand up in the future.
When Tao Boli returned to his residence, he first ordered his men to spread the rumors in secret. Then, he thought of something.
After a long silence, Tao Boli finally gave his orders.
“Get the Princess Consort’s hair.”
The subordinate was very surprised, but he still obediently left.
Tao Boli sat on the chair, feeling upset. He thought about the past and frowned.
His gaze fell on the photo frame on the table. In the photo frame was a young couple wearing a bachelor’s uniform, welcoming graduation with a smile..
