不得不说,还是梅琳达了解陛下,这话这么一说出来,陛下不仅没有就此作罢,还夸奖了乔伊斯

(陛下)Joyce is really a good kid

(陛下)But I'm sure they won't give you a hard time

(陛下)If you really feel too conspicuous, you can go alone

(陛下)This is your privilege and your only one

(陛下)Kind of a reward for you
陛下都这么说了,乔伊斯也没有不同意的道理

(乔伊斯)Thank you, father
陛下点了点头
然后一把抱住乔伊斯

(陛下)Why do I think you've lost weight?
陛下看向梅琳达
梅琳达有些措手不及

(梅琳达)You do know that Joyce loves her brothers and sisters?

(梅琳达)So Joyce would give them anything good to eat

(梅琳达)I love this kid, too

(梅琳达)It's hard to watch him like this
梅琳达一副痛心疾首的样子

(陛下)Why not give one to each of them?
言外之意还是在怪罪她没有好好的待孩子们
梅琳达有些惶恐

(梅琳达)Your Majesty, as you know, the harem never treated its adopted son as well as the Prince

(梅琳达)In addition, my adopted son is the largest, so it is normal to have some skimping on food, and it is impossible to take care of every child, right?
梅琳达这么一说就把所有的错误归结到其他人身上了,可是只有乔伊斯知道,这些被克扣的东西全部都进了梅琳达的口袋
可是梅琳达却要装出一副可怜样子
乔伊斯有点看不下去,但是他也要在明面上配合梅琳达
陛下看向乔伊斯

(陛下)Is that the case? Joyce
乔伊斯点头
陛下有些生气

(陛下)Adopted son is also kept in the palace of children, although the treatment can not be the same as the prince, but at least to eat, right?
陛下叫来了自己的亲卫,吩咐他一定要看好乔伊斯和其他几位养子养女,不允许任何人做假
乔伊斯微微向亲卫行礼,算是感谢他
因为乔伊斯知道,他想要自由,得靠陛下,还有陛下的这个亲卫
梅琳达挽住陛下

(梅琳达)Your Grace, it's time we went in
梅琳达一边说着,一边用眼神警告乔伊斯
乔伊斯微微低下头,但是抬起头的那一瞬间,眼神变了
