Y/n
*but when you think about.... you begin crying nonstop. Your parents have no idea what's going on, and they try to comfort you, but you cry even harder. *

*a familiar voice calls to you as you are halfway to the palace on your carriage*

* you open the curtain and find to your surprise that it's Shi Lian, your maid from when you were both kids. She's coming after you on a horse*
Y/n
[shocked]Shi Lian, how come you're here?
Shi Lian
[smiles] the master and madam are worried about you, so they asked me to go along. Plus, are you really going to leave me behind?
your family paid off the interviews so let you get through the interview. You are unexpectedly calm as you see the impending palace in front of you
Shi Lian
[excited]Miss! miss! the floor is made up of marble, and the wall, and the hall....I thought our mansion was already wealthy as can be but this.
Y/n
[look up to the palace]Of course. our mansion is not comparable to the palace.

(still, saving my family and taking down the crown prince won't be easy, I have to be perfectly aware when I'm in the palace. Get along with everyone and make no mistake)
the old matron's mean voice interrupts your thoughts
Old matron
[Harshly]The most important part of the palace is the rules. Now get busy. You need to get familiar with the palace duties in the palace, so get changed! you have to dress appropriately. If you make any mistakes you can just go home.
Shi Lian
[tense]miss, let's get changed!
Shi Lian
well well, this set really makes you stand out, miss. The mean matron is yelling again. We better get there fast.
