My Little Pony: Changelings

Chapter 344: Disaster in Yunyu (4)

"I need your help, Sloth."

Twilight Sparkle hurried to the principal's office of Friendship School and found Lazy who was handling something. Lazy looked up, put the last test paper on his hoof on the table, and said with a sigh.

"what's up?"

"It's just that Princess Cosmos and Princess Moon are going to retire, and they want me to take the throne."

"Well, that's expected."

Lazy was not surprised at all when he heard this. Twilight Sparkle was stunned at first, then she realized that Lazy didn't know any of the details, so she continued.

"Instead of notifying me a few months or years in advance, I will take office in just a few days, after a celebration. However, I have no plans or preparations for succession, so... I want to ask, do you have any suggestions?"

When Lazy heard Twilight Sparkle's words, he lowered his head slightly, and his glasses reflected a colorful light. Lazy stood up, walked to Twilight Sparkle, pressed his hoof on her, and spoke to her.

"A wise choice, little girl. I happen to have a method that can quickly turn you into a perfect monarch in a few days. I guarantee that you will go from being an ignorant little girl to a true iron lady."

When Twilight Sparkle heard Lazy's confident answer, she breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that her good friend must have a way to deal with managing the country. In fact, she guessed right, but the ideal and reality were a little different.

"Oh, that's great. I need a plan now. What should we do first? Should we learn princess etiquette or memorize the laws of Equestria? Actually, I already..."

Lazy used her hoof to silence the chattering pony. Her Twilight Sparkle symptoms had resurfaced, but after all, she was Twilight Sparkle. Lazy waited until the other pony was quiet before speaking.

"The first step is to take a deep breath."

"that's it?"

"that's it."

After hearing Lazy's suggestion, Twilight Sparkle tried to follow her method, and her excitement calmed down again. Twilight Sparkle felt great now. So Lazy asked her to start the second step.

"what is this?"

Twilight Sparkle looked at Lazily's raised hoof, tilted her head in confusion, and then spoke unconfidently.

"A... hoof?"

"No, it's...power!"

"strength..."

"Yes, you must learn the magic of power, like a king. You own everything in Equestria. Hold your head high, king! Never bow your head!"

After hearing this, Twilight Sparkle straightened up according to Sloth's movement. Then Sloth circled around Twilight Sparkle, and said with dissatisfaction, supporting his chin with his hoof.

"You said you would take over at the ceremony in a few days, right?"

"Yes, the Princess of the Universe told me so herself."

"Well... time is a bit tight. How about this? You put aside everything now. I will assign a team from my side to help you take care of things in the next few days. Don't worry at all. I have experience."

"That's great, I don't know what I would do without you."

"It's nothing. After all, in a sense, you are me. What's right or wrong in helping yourself?"

After Lazy finished speaking, he pushed Twilight Sparkle towards the Friendship Castle, but Twilight Sparkle suddenly remembered something and said to Lazy.

"Wait, if we all leave, what will happen to the school? Who will be the principal?"

Lazy raised her eyebrows and said that this kind of thing was not a problem at all, but for other ponies, it was a big trouble.

"By order of Princess Twilight Sparkle, from now on, Starlight Glimmer is appointed as the principal of Friendship School. She will be in charge of all affairs of Friendship School and report on the school's work regularly.

Since Her Royal Highness will be settling in the Canterlot Royal Castle in order to more conveniently manage Equestria, the Friendship Castle in Ponyville will also be managed by Starlight Glimmer. I hope you will live up to Her Royal Highness's trust.

Royal Sisters Year 1, Year 1, Month 1, Day 1.

Starlight Glimmer read the letter of appointment on her office. With each word she read, her heart beat a little more unconsciously. She regretted so much why she didn't take advantage of the holiday to go on a long trip, but instead suddenly came to the school to take a look.

When she finished reading the last word, she was panting with fear and her hooves were shaking. She wanted to find Twilight Sparkle and ask her to rescind the order because Starlight Glimmer felt that she would mess up the school, just like last time.

But when she quickly ran to the Castle of Friendship, she found that the entire castle was eerily quiet. There was not a single pony, bug, or dragon inside. And the worst thing was... looking at the empty room, this meant that Twilight Sparkle had left Ponyville and gone to Canterlot!

"Do not!!!"

At the same time, in the Canterlot Royal Castle, Twilight Sparkle watched the Twilight Sparkle clones around her busy working, and whenever she wanted to do something, she would be stopped by them.

"You are a monarch now. You must behave like a monarch. You must know clearly what you should and should not do."

Lazy's words rang in Twilight Sparkle's ears, and she couldn't help but sigh. Spike and Lazy went out, and no one knew where Starlight had gone. Looking at herself who was out of tune with the surroundings, Twilight Sparkle could only lie on the table and let the other clones fiddle with her.

"Get this out of here. What's the point of it still being here? Are you here to challenge authority?"

Princess Cosmos was a little surprised when she saw the throne thrown out of the window, while Princess Moon frowned impatiently and said to Princess Cosmos.

"I really like this throne. I was planning to take it with me. But she just threw it away like that?"

"Well... Actually, it would be a good idea for us to change seats. Since Twilight Sparkle did this, she must have her reasons, right?"

I watched as the ponies in front of me mercilessly tore down the sun and moon flags in the castle and replaced them with Twilight Sparkle's star logo. The stained glass windows were taken down one by one and replaced with purple pony patterns. The castle hall was like being covered with a purple veil, majestic and... dictatorial.

"I think I should talk to Twilight Sparkle?"

Princess Celestial muttered to herself, and then when she was about to go to Twilight Sparkle, the royal guards, who had changed into new armor, came over and spoke to Princess Celestial and Princess Moon.

"I'm sorry, Your Highnesses, since you have already signed the land transaction terms, this castle now belongs to Your Highness Twilight Sparkle.

This is now private horse territory. According to the new Royal Guard Code, we need to ensure the safety of the castle. No ponies are allowed to leave. So please leave the castle. If you want to visit here, you must get permission from His Royal Highness before you can be summoned."

After hearing this, Princess Celestia and Princess Moon looked at each other. They always felt that something was wrong, as if things shouldn't develop like this?
