168 hours or 1 week later

"Wow, this place seems bigger now, not MI h has been moved around but it doesn't feel the same. Weird, i have been here my whole life, did the past one week really change that much?"I said to myself.

"Great to see you, I have already prepared a room for us to talk away from all the eyes so let's go in and have a talk" exclaimed George.

"So I think we should start, umm you tell me about your first 12 hours then I'll do my 12 hours and I guess we should discuss the nights as well because I surprised myself and did a lot of thinking at night almost like a conclusion" I said in a calm friendly manner.
"Yea okay" He said before he started with day one.
"So I woke up that day and unlike every other day when I woke up I was wished morning with a tone so good that it felt like music to my ears. I then dressed up had breakfast and then went on a stroll around the castle before I was seated on your throne".
"Next I was told about the large group of people in front of me.'So as we are supposed to give you a fresh start you can assign these people jobs as you wish or none at all and any questions you may have, feel free to ask me' said the butler that was standing beside me. Alright then, it would be a lot of help if you could tell me the jobs they usually do i can see three different colors on their aprons what's up with that? I asked. And my butler replied with. Well usually the people with royal red aprons clean the castle and the town. The people with royal green are our cooks and last but not the least royal blue are assigned jobs required to the needs. And the armed men you see are used when you like to summon people or need to defend or attack. Is what my butler told me and then... Okay then cleaners should do their usual job and I would like you people to clean as the people of the Kingdom want you to not necessarily perfect but as required and at any point of theirs a conplain or need for a break you shall take one. All I need is for you to fulfill your duties by the end of the week. Same for the cooks but please cook the same food for everyone and make sure to enjoy your job and feed everyone for this week no one is being punished by being provided with less food. And as for you in blue I need five of you to tell me how this place was ran and everything I need to know and I need some of you to disguise as the villagers and see what they are expecting from me as the ruler and report it to me as it was said. You all are dismissed. And can we have some good music? I commanded.
We shall play whatever you like please tell us what is it you want us to play
Well I want to listen to 'lacrimosa' please.
And it was played. For the rest of the day I pretty much waitwd and heard how you ran the place. I was then reported with what the villagers want and expect and went to sleep with only one thought in my head. Which was.. I will provide the people peace and happiness and show to the world that perfect isn't always what you need. So yea that was mine now you" he explained.
