People lined up along the streets when the royal guards made an announcement that the palace had opened the reserves to distribute food and meat to the poor upon the return of the queen.

Under Abby's instructions, Alan made sure to spread the word that the queen was representing both the king and herself for this cause, as she hoped for them to pray to the Moon Goddess, so that the baby in her stomach would grow healthily.

However, what they didn't expect was for the queen to actually take the opportunity to make her first official appearance on this occasion. And she even came out dressed almost similar to them, until even her maids couldn't understand her actions. They couldn't help but express these doubts when this repeated for the next two days as well.

"My Queen, why are you dressed like a commoner? You are the queen of this kingdom." Reyna's tone indicated how disarming it was for her to see Abby like this.

Today, their queen was wearing a simple long gown in the color of powder blue that flowed past her ankles, with little to none accessories on her body. Apart from a pair of pearl studs and a matching chain with a pearl pendant, she was only wearing a simple brooch, which was designed to look like the royal insignia, on the left lapel of her outer royal robe.

Abby could tell Alyssa shared the same opinion as Reyna when she silently stood beside her with this disapproving gaze in her eyes. But she didn't think there was anything wrong with her choice. "Weren't I also a commoner before your king found me?" Abby smiled when neither of the girls refuted her. "I know what I'm doing."

She didn't want to put on airs when she was aiming to get close to the people, so from her attire to her actions, everything had to be modest. She wanted both their respect and trust, so she needed to make them realize she could understand all their sufferings.

Sitting on a high horse and restricting herself with all the rules would not help her achieve her goal. Since she decided to take action personally, she would do it perfectly, only then would she be able to negate all the 'painstaking' efforts of Arthur.

Moreover, if she were to don extravagant dresses and heavy jewelry, she would be restricting her own movements greatly. On the other hand, this simple dress would allow her to breathe freely while walking in the streets. Her chosen attire was completely practical for the occasion.

As such, without making any active effort, Abby managed to slowly turn around the people's opinion, when she persisted with her promise by continuing to distribute food without fail everyday, covering one street at a time.
