as a cynic, I agree with mildred. who in their right mind, with no husband and 3 daughters to marry off, wouldn't care about money? in order to be appealing to others, you need to have money. and the source of money is gone, aka the husband. even other noblewomen must care about money, they have to marry someone who's rich and has a high enough status. only those who are fortunate to not experience any hardship are allowed to be this naive. I was expecting the queen to be smarter? I know most queens are there just to look pretty, but in the past queens also took part in governance and must be able to govern effectively and understand the troubles of commoners. the queen really is naive.
also, thank you sleepy trans~~ it was a treat to be able to read this much
