Fred came in. His face was still bandaged, only revealing a pair of eyes and a mouth, so that his identity was effectively
concealed from everyone. Harper was eating breakfast. With a glance at Fred, she said, "Sit down. Let's have breakfast
together."
Fred frowned uncomfortably. He was about to refuse when Harper added, "This is an order."
After an awkward hesitation, Fred sat down, taking only a small portion of his chair. He looked at the bowl and chopsticks in front
of him, but didn't start eating.
"Just eat. You will come with me to the Imperial Palace later," Harper said while eating her breakfast as usual. "Hurry up and
eat."
Fred picked up his bowl and chopsticks and slurped up the porridge quickly. Then he put the bowl down and stood up. He said

Harper looked him up and down curiously, which made sweat roll down his back. He felt uneasy, but had no other choice than to
endure it, because she was the master.
"Angelica, Peony."
"Yes, Your Highness."

"Go and wash him up. Make sure he smells fragrant," Harper ordered. There was a sly twinkle in her eyes. When she saw the

The only problem with his face was that it looked a little pale. "You were hiding such a delicate face," Harper mumbled. "Your appearance is perfectly suitable. Now put on these clothes here. You're not my guardsman but my maid today." Fred could hardly believe his own ears when she said that. However, he had been trained well to obey orders.

"Yes, Your Highness." Anabel was patient enough to show Fred how to wear the uniform, and Fred was clever enough to learn it
