"Princess Lizeth Is Courting Death" 

Duke Fez had a good image in the commoners' heart, had military power, and was also young. He's still single too!

He's really suitable to be the kingdom's new king.

But Mariella knew from the novel that Duke Fez has never had such a thought or ambition.

If not, why would he assist the weak Lizeth instead of directly proclaiming himself as the new king?

The commoners wouldn't care about the so-called royal bloodline. The nobles were also afraid of Duke's Fez authority.

Why the need to assist a weak and cowardly princess until the princess became a good queen?

Mariella trusted Duke Fez a lot, and the result was naturally good.

In just fifteen minutes, the soldier managed to calm the masses.

The originally chaotic execution ground slowly became orderly, and the few people with violent tendencies were all detained by the soldiers.

"Don't throw rocks or create chaos! If not, we will detain you!"

"Move, move, don't get too close to the stage!"

"Calm down, everyone. Duke Fez will not let innocent people die in front of him!"

Everything had been going well, thanks to the soldiers' joint effort.

But a few people really had the talent to court death…

Just right after the masses calmed down, someone suddenly rushed in front of the execution stage, directly looking up at the royal family's platform with her back facing the masses.

The person who suddenly appeared naturally would attract countless people' attention.

Even more so when the people saw the girl's shining golden hair under the sunlight.

Such a unique hair colour...only one family had this trait.

Some people from the slums among the commoners at the field instantly recognised this 'brave' person.

Golden hair was a trait belonging to the royal family.

The people from the slums immediately called out excitedly.

"Princess Lizeth!"

"It's Princess Lizeth!"

No one knew how Princess Lizeth, who was supposed to be at the seats behind Isabella, rushed to the execution field and even tood in front of the masses.

Her humble pale pink gown and her plain appearance without even a single accessories was a stark contrast to the luxuriously-dressed Isabella.

When the commoners saw this, they were even more dissatisfied with Isabella.

How come the queen wasn't the kind Princess Lizeth but such an evil tyrant??

The commoners looked at Isabella with hatred and disgust while looking at Lizeth's back with touched gazes.

"Princess, don't come here. It's dangerous!" One of the commoners were worried and tried to get Lizeth out of the chaotic execution ground.

More and more commoners echoed and each of them were people from the slums.

"Princess, please leave!"

"Princess, what if the soldier drags you out?"

"Princess– "

The commoners somehow knew that Lizeth was an unfavoured princess.

Rumors from the castle servants said that the princess only had two maids, and the tyrant still bullied her.

The servants pitied Lizeth and never made things hard for her, but under Isabella's oppression, they could do nothing but watch.

Facing the commoners' heartfelt concern, Lizeth turned around and squeezed a weak smile before toughening her facial expression.

The princess then looked back at the high platform and the execution stage before shouting to Isabella with all of her might.

"Your majesty! Please...please don't blindly kill innocent people!"

Mariella's lips twitched as Duke Fez' darkened. Even the royal family members behind Isabella looked at Lizeth as if she were a ghost.

How daring to talk like that to the tyrant!

Lizeth's mother, one of the concubines, swayed on the spot and almost fainted.

"Concubine Anne!"

"Liz...Liz...my daughter…" Anne forced herself to remain sober and wanted to rush out of the high platform down to the execution field.

But the servants and the people around her prevented her from going.

The woman was already frail and weak. If the soldiers down there accidentally harmed her, who could be blamed??

While the woman was shouting weakly, calling for her daughter dramatically, Lizeth bit her lips and toughened her heart.

"Your majesty. Please, I beg you!" Lizeth wanted to kneel again, but the commoners around her immediately stopped her.

"No, no, princess, don't be like that!"

"Yes, yes. Duke Fez is here. There won't be injustice!"

"Maybe the inmates are really guilty…"

"Even if they aren't, Duke Fez won't watch innocent people getting killed like that."

"Yes, yes!"

The commoners believed in Duke Fez, but Lizeth was doubtful. She knew that Duke Fez had just become Isabella's adoptive father.

Wouldn't he be biased to the little tyrant or get swayed by that tyrant's lies?

What if these people were really innocent, but Duke Fez didn't know?

Lizeth quickly looked up at Duke Fez, and her eyes moistened. She looked at the duke with a pleading gaze.

"Your Grace, these people...please save them. If they're innocent...please don't turn a blind eye and save them!"

Princess Lizeth was the only one among the other princes and princesses brave enough to talk to the tyrant and Duke Fez.

She was usually timid and weak, but for the sake of the commoners and innocent people, she stood up bravely.

The commoners saw these, and all of them felt touched.

Even the rebels had sour noses as they watched the fragile princess standing up for them, even when the tyrant usually bullied her.

"Princess Lizeth..."

"Huhuhu. The princess is too kind!"

Mariella watched all the drama with twitching eyelids. She was really speechless to the bone this time.

[Say, Monica. Is this world's protagonist that dumb? Is her character setting really like this?]

In the original novel, when the innocent minister died, Lizeth didn't barge into the execution field like now and opposed the executioner.

How come she suddenly became a 'saint' and did that?
