chapter 21
21 – Fiancée’s childhood friend? (2)
Didn’t I ask what the fuss was about?”
It was the Queen’s question, but who in the world could answer it?
I don’t even know what the situation is.
Everyone here must have the same idea.
But it wasn’t him.
Look at that expression.
The expression that won thousands of horses…
“Your Majesty, would it be all right for the small man to answer him?”
“…Try it.”
About the fact that the guy who was at the center of the uproar stood proudly in front of the queen.
Alice was also taken aback for a moment, but seemed to want to listen.
“This man is a wicked piece of scum who wants to take my fiancé by putting up his noble status.
No matter how much a man is, if he is not a fiancé, he shouldn’t touch his body for personal reasons.
Please take care of that person’s punishment!!”
Alice saw me hugging Lillie.
From anyone’s point of view, it’s just a picture of engaged children who get along well with simple skinship.
I stand up for a noble status and take it. It’s not like I’m not married.
.
Alice ate and laughed.
“I see. So you’re claiming that you’re betrothed to Lillie von Spitzweg?”
“It’s not an assertion, it’s a fact. Miss Lillie and I swore to marry when we were young.”
“Ohh. Do the parents of both families know about this?”
“Of course. Can I speak to your Majesty about a matter of which safety is not certain?”
Lilie held me tight.
That’s also very strong.
My forearms throbbed as if they were about to scream.
Did I even watch that scene?
Alice looked at Lillie and she smiled at her condescendingly.
She seemed to tell me not to worry.
It was her older sister’s expression that made her younger sister feel at ease.
Alice saw Likton’s face, she nodded her head once more, and she summoned Lillie’s mother, Lane von Spitzweg.
Mr. Lane stood still, looked at me, and she bowed slightly.
Somehow, I felt like apologizing for what had happened.
Even though it wasn’t exactly Mr. Rain’s fault.
“Yes, you, the mother of Lillie von Spitzweg, must know.”
“Of course, Your Majesty.”
“Then tell me. Is Lillie his fiancée?”
“Absolutely not.”
An answer without a sigh of hesitation.
Of course, I was unexpectedly sleepy.
Even Lily’s heart felt sleepy for a moment as she let out a sigh of relief.
It clung closer to me.
“That…What do you mean! I’m sure Lily and I are engaged…”
“I’ve been close to your mother, but nothing like your engagement to my daughter has ever come up.
Do you think such absurd remarks will be forgiven because you are a man!”
“But… It must be my mother…!!”
“Shut up!”
Ms. Lane looked very young, about 15 years old, but she was already an elf who had lived for over 400 years.
She, like her mother, is a general who has led several wars.
On top of that, even though he betrayed him, he has a gangster who took the lead of the expelled faction and had a direct confrontation with his mother.
It is not a spirit that a man in the middle of the day can face.
“I will forgive you once, seeing how close you are to your mother.
At that time, it would be better to prepare for the Battle of Yeongji. Got it!”
In fact, he mentioned the ‘Yeongjijeon’, a system that has disappeared.
That means a civil war.
Of course, I couldn’t say that I would slit the head of the marquise’s family in front of the queen, so I said it around the corner.
“Ugh… Ugh…”
“Drag and go!”
Alice ordered the guards to drag Lichton, who was speechless under the weight of the roar.
She felt a little sympathy for her lichton as she was being dragged along in tears.
Because, no matter how young Lillie was, she deserved all the idiots to make such strange misunderstandings.
Of course, Lily is already mine.
Licton was being dragged along for a long time when someone walked from the opposite direction.
Was it the child’s mother?
“Son!?”
She must have been shocked to see her precious son being dragged away.
She is seen trying to take her son away from the guardsmen, but they are pros.
Can it be stolen?
She just silently carries out the orders given by the queen.
Unsurprisingly, she argued with Alice.
Even though she did something wrong, Yeong-sik was dragged away by the guards.
Because it’s a disgrace that’s hard to even think about.
“Your Majesty, what happened to this!? Why did my son…!!”
“Marquis, because your son was engaged to Miss Lillie, he insulted my husband and ruined the party.”
“That… What…”
She was puzzled for a moment, but did she have any idea?
Immediately, she lowered her head.
It must be related.
***
“That was it.”
“Your Majesty, this is a challenge to our ducal family!”
“I don’t think it’s just a matter of passing.”
So, to sum it up, he lied to his son who was having a hard time because he couldn’t even get an arranged marriage due to mental problems.
It’s still a secret, but she lied that after Lillie graduated from her academy, she announced that she was engaged, and that she would marry her at the same time.
No matter how much she lies, calling someone else’s woman her fiancée, doesn’t she cross the line?
Her mother, Mr. Lane, and Alice all gathered together and she argued with him.
In particular, Mr. Rain’s anger pierces the sky.
What an insulation declaration…
In front of her, she urged her not to appear in front of her.
“It was a disaster.”
“I think the idiot called Rickton was more of a disaster than me.”
Lara is wearing a party dress, not the maid outfit she always wears.
He sat next to me.
By the way, Lily is stopping Mr. Rain.
“How is it? Isn’t it strange?”
I wonder if he was a little anxious because I was looking at him indifferently.
I asked directly.
The black dress that matched her black hair made Lara’s slender figure stand out and made her elegant.
The decorations on her hair and light makeup further amplified her charm.
The first time he showed it, he was playful for no reason, but he’d be sad if he joked around here.
“It’s beautiful. When did you buy it?”
“Serena ordered it.”
Standing up in her chair, Lara smiled bitterly as she turned 360 degrees to show her front.
Because she could see the Sieghart family coat of arms, embroidered in gold.
The Sieghart Family Headquarters cannot be used by anyone.
Only a member of the family can be permitted to use the family crest.
It’s on her outsider Lara’s clothes, and the family owner herself put it on it…
I’m not so stupid that I don’t understand its meaning.
Her mother already sees Lara as her daughter-in-law.
You might think that she didn’t give it to her because she just thought of her as family.
I’m sure not.
Otherwise, why are the same embroidery on Lillie and Alice’s clothes?
Originally, it doesn’t fit the hierarchy for an Alice in a high hierarchy to have a family head
It doesn’t matter if the royal family’s pattern is attached to it.
Rather, because the level is higher..
At the age of 7, he became a super celebrity (?) With 3 wives.
It’s not that I don’t like it.
Rather good.
It’s a reward.
But the three of them are too wonderful for me.
I worry about whether I can pull it off.
“Ehh…”
“Your Highness, are you all right?”
Do you know how I feel?
Lara sighed and said she was worried about me, so she headed to the center of the party venue to bring water.
***
I ran away.
I’m going to go to the palace and see the queen, and report everything.
It’s been two days since I drove out of the estate of the Marquis of Astasium and drove out.
She is a really incompetent and stupid b*tch when it comes to whether or not there will be a chase team.
I bounced around with everything that could be evidence, and yet I didn’t notice.
No, rather fortunately.
Thanks to that, I was able to review the evidence I had retrieved and move while resting.
“That’s… The royal road.”
I could barely see it, but I let out a sigh of relief.
I’ve arrived at the capital, but I’m not in a position to invade the palace.
Will you know who I am and let you look into it?
I felt sorry for my brain as I couldn’t even think of such a simple problem and escaped from the manor.
While looking for a way for a while, I heard a rumor that the Queen had participated in a party hosted by the Grand Duke of Sieghart,
I headed for Zyghart Mansion in the center of the royal road.
There were public institutions built around it, and it was the center of the capital, so it boasted very high land prices.
The size of the mansion was no joke.
To think of building a mansion of this size on such land?
It seems that the public servants who gave permission to build the building here are more crazy than Sieghart’s wealth.
The party came to an end and the aristocrats who participated came out one by one.
And when a person with a similar look to the queen was about to come out, he tried to step forward.
“What is it?”
The queen uttered a word nonchalantly, but her guardsmen in her escort drew her sword.
“Go away! Do you know who you are standing in your way!”
“If you don’t get out of the way, I’ll cut you no matter how manly you are.”
Trying to kill you for blocking the road once.
Her whole body trembled.
“What’s going on?”
“Stand back, Your Highness. An unidentified man has stood in your way.”
The guards called the boy who was clinging to the Queen’s back to his Highness.
A knife was brought to his throat.
That kid is probably Yuk Sieghart Kritias, the bureau chief.
The queen is also a queen, but shouldn’t she rather know her party, Guk Seo?
Do you want to try it?
“Your Majesty!
I committed rudeness to surrender to the two of you about the academy infiltration incident. Please forgive me.”
“Ohh. Are you saying that you are the culprit?”
“That’s not it. I’ve come to clarify the truth about the commander and the executioner and related evidence!!”
I committed it.
Confessed to be involved in an incident that blocked the path of the world’s most powerful person and angered him.
She came with the idea of a judicial deal, but what are the chances of getting a pardon?
Perhaps it is difficult for me to be forgiven either.
I thought so.
“Okay, I’ll give it a listen. Come in!”
“!! The castle is ruined.”
Buy… Lived!!
I began to see hope.
“Alice, can I listen with you?”
“Tk. Yuk, go to the palace first and rest. It looks a bit tired, but wash up and go to sleep.”
“But, it’s a holiday tomorrow, so you can sleep a little later…”
“Then you won’t grow any taller? Do as I say. Come on.”
“Okay. Need to come soon?”
The Queen stroked her head and lightly stroked her cheek, then she kissed her on the forehead.
As if she was satisfied, her little Kuk Seo also smiled and got into the car.
Only when the car had disappeared into the distance and was no longer seen, the Queen headed back inside.
I also got up while she was doing her job, and she entered her mansion surrounded by the guards.
