My Little Queen's

Chapters. 13 Surprising results

Princess Artha blinked her eyes, her head still throbbing.

"Aww.my head!" he said while holding his head.

Princess Artha looked around, this room did not look foreign.

"Ah, I'm in my room." she muttered.

Then he tried to remember last night. Everything was still clearly visible, as he slipped into the treatment room until the moment he met the prince Adrian.

"Adrians!" he woke up from his sleep.

"Aww.my head!" he said again while holding back his still throbbing head.

"Didn't Adrian smother me with something last night?" thought.

"Happy!!. Yes he smothered me with a handkerchief that had been drugged, I still remember the aroma of the medicine!", he muttered while holding his nose while trying to find the remaining aroma of the anesthetic.

Princess Artha did not understand why Prince Adrian was so desperate. Of course he and prince Adrian were friends for a long time and he was grateful that prince Adrian cared about his safety. But, does it need to be like that? had he not refused firmly to go.Those thoughts passed in his brain.

"Mmm..then how can I go back to my room? there's no way Adrian brought me back here, didn't he mean to take me out of the palace last night" he thought.

"Is everything just a dream? ah, no way." he was still struggling with his own thoughts.

When she was about to rise, princess Artha accidentally stepped on the tip of her robe.

"Bugh!!" Princess Artha fell to the floor.

"Aww.. hurts!" his erang.

"This cloak! I wore this robe last night, meaning what happened last night wasn't a dream!" he shouted while standing.

Princess Artha was about to exit the room, when the door of the room was opened by someone.

"Princess Artha, Queen Elizabeth wants to see you" said a lady-in-waiting.

Queen Elizabeth went into Artha's daughter's room, followed by several court ladies.

"Good morning princess Artha, did you sleep well?" empress Elizabeth sat in a chair.

"Good morning, my majesty, I slept very soundly, your majesty the empress" replied princess Artha as she bowed in reverence.

"I'm sorry that my situation is still a mess" said Princess Artha as she stood facing Queen Elizabeth.

"Don't hesitate, I'm the one who should be apologizing, because it's too early to wake you up, sit down!" said empress Elizabeth.

Princess Artha sat down next to Queen Elizabeth.

"I apologize for what happened to your lady yesterday, I hope it won't happen again" said Queen Elizabeth.

"From today there will be a ladyboy on duty to taste your food, so you don't have to worry anymore" he added.

Two men came forward and bowed, one lady-in-waiting carrying a tray containing breakfast for Artha's daughter while the other seemed to be the lady-in-charge to taste the food.

"O, yes, I almost forgot, today Miss Hings will teach you a etiquette class.She will come later in the afternoon" said the empress Elizabeth.

"All right, I'll be back. Please get ready, daughter Artha." said Queen Elizabeth standing up.

"Thank you, your majesty. I'll enjoy her breakfast." Princess Artha bowed to Queen Elizabeth.

Empress Elizabeth nodded and passed in following her personal ladyboy.

Princess Artha was done getting ready and was enjoying her breakfast.

"I'm done with breakfast, please take care of it." exclaimed princess Artha, the ladies and gentlemen took care of princess Artha's breakfast and hurried away.

At noon Miss Hings came to the palace. Today princess Artha will learn how to walk gracefully and perfectly as well as other etiquette for her royal wedding party later.

Although princess Artha also learned etiquette when she was young in Pulchara kingdom, but she did not really like it, because for her etiquette lessons are not suitable for a free-spirited girl like her. He often feels his back becomes tense and stiff when learning to walk or sit with his head and shoulders perfectly upright.

Though that's just the reason, in fact princess Artha had another purpose, she wanted to find a book about poison plants, because she was still curious about the poison used for poisonous cookies the other day.

"Okay, your majesty, we're going to start our lesson today." Miss Hings looks like a very annoying teacher. He rarely smiled sweetly, always walking and sitting with his back and head perfectly upright.

Princess Artha started walking with some books placed on her head, it will help her to walk perfectly upright.

"Bugh!!" a book falling from the top of Artha's daughter's head, Dona Hings stared intently at princess Artha.

"It seems you still need to learn a lot princess" he said, taking back the book with a flat expression.

"Maybe the book is too thin, Miss Hings" said princess Artha.

"It looks like the dark green book on the top shelf is thicker and stronger" he added, staring at a dark green book on the shelf.

Miss Hings thought about it while looking at the book that the princess meant.

"Well, you try to get the book!" his orders to the assistants .

The assistants pulled the stairs at the end of the room that the library deliberately provided to pick up the books on the top shelf.

"This is Miss Hings' book." said an assistant handing over the dark green-coated book.

"Let's start again, princess!", said Miss Hings to the princess .

Princess Artha walked back to the starting position, and then Miss Hings put the thick enough book on the head of princess Artha.

"God. This book is pretty heavy!" murmured princess Artha inwardly, she was as strong as her strength to withstand the weight that was on top of her head.

"But what I can do, I need this book!" he murmured while continuing to walk gracefully.

After some time, Artha's daughter finally finished her ethics studies today.

"You learn quickly, Princess Artha", said Miss Hings as they rested after the lesson was over.

"Thank you" replied Princess Artha.

"Until now you're one of my favorite students, because you never complain and argue" he said.

" I'm sure you can be a strong empress and be loved by many people later, because you're not a spoiled princess!" he said with a smile.

Princess Artha was flattered by what Miss Hings said.

"Thank you Miss Hings, I'm flattered by your words" she said with a smile.

Miss Hings and Princess Artha left the library, Ms. Hings asked permission to see Queen Elizabeth, while princess Artha went straight back to her room.

Arriving at the room, Princess Artha immediately pulled out a book wrapped in dark green that had been hidden in a cloak that she placed on her arm.

Princess Artha immediately opened the book that at the top of the cover read 'Plants and Poisonous Animals'" .

" Dark dark green color, odorless, causing fainting and...." Princess Artha still turned the pages of the book carefully, she read each sheet carefully.

For a long time he read the book, until he found what he was looking for .

"The color of dark green is blackish, odorless, slightly bitter on the tongue and when swallowed causes fainting, poisoning of the blood resulting in narrowed respiratory organs to respiratory failure, eye muscles tense as people bulged, and so on,a seizure of the heart that leads to death!".

"Deg!", the heart of princess Artha seemed to pause for a moment.

"Taxane, it's poison taxane!"he closed his mouth in surprise.

"Oh my god, who put this dangerous poison into the cookie dough!" princess Artha still could not believe what she found.

Taxane or Taxine is a poison found on almost all parts of the British Fir tree or Taxus baccata. All parts of this tree are poisonous except for the part of the rind that is often bird food. This plant poison is often used by people to kill themselves because eating it can result in a heart attack.

"Who has done all this?" Princess Artha thought hard, she has not known many people in this palace so she has not been able to conclude with certainty who the perpetrator is.

"After this I must be even more careful!" he murmured, and then he hid the book he had read under the bed.
