Unable to shake off her suspicion, Aini immediately left the castle, got on a carriage, and went all the way to Redler’s house located on the outskirts of the capital. She had to solve anything strange right away.
But the Duke and Duchess were at the palace because of their daughter’s disappeared body, so no one was there.
Only the servants were lost and flustered as the Empress suddenly appeared amidst the chaos.
In the end, Aini, who had gained nothing, got back into the carriage. But just before the carriage set off.
“Um… Your Majesty.”
One maid rushed up and extended a small envelope through the window.
“What is it?”
When Aini asked weakly, the maid opened the envelope and took out a small talisman.
“One of the madam’s relatives is a priest, and she received a talisman from the Prime Minister a while ago.”
“And?”
“She originally put it in the lady’s room drawer, but this time when she came, she said she would give it to Your Majesty and picked out a necklace pendant that could hold the talisman.”
So, did she say she would go back home just to get that? Surely, it couldn’t have been a suicide. Aini looked at the necklace with sad eyes.
And then she reached out to receive it, but quickly changed her mind and shook her head.
“I’m good. Give it to the Duchess. She would be more distressed than me.”
[This is the time separator]With the sudden death of the Empress’ closest maid and the missing body, Karisen was in chaos, but Tarium was relatively quiet after the Prime Minister’s injury.
The Prime Minister was looking for the person who had pushed him with fire in his eyes, but the culprit had hidden away and couldn’t be found.
Others thought that the Prime Minister had tripped and fallen, so they didn’t take his tumbling down the stairs seriously from the beginning.
Thanks to this, a precarious and quiet peace continued until one day, a small incident happened in Tarium.
“Baihwarangsool? Came to see me?”
It was a formal visit from Baihwarangsool, a group of holy knights.
Latil, who had accepted the Prime Minister as her harem that day, had heard about the group called Baihwarangsool, so she asked her secretary in surprise.
“Why do they want me?”
“I’m not sure. But they say it’s a very important matter and are requesting to see Your Majesty.”
“Because of black magic? Because of the death of the Hira high priest?”
She was puzzled, but as it was not a matter to refuse, Latil accepted their surprise request and went out alone.
There, knights in white cloaks and matching white uniforms were standing in a line, and a few other officials and nobles were looking at them.
“So, what did you want to see me for?”
Internally, Latil quickly thought through several reasons they might have come, but on the outside, she asked indifferently as she walked to her throne.
However, the response was more impressive than expected. The knights in white uniforms simultaneously knelt on one knee.
The dignified action, as if they had practiced for years, caused the officials standing around to murmur among themselves, wondering why they were doing this.
As Latil sat on her throne, she once again asked curiously.
“Speak.”
Then one knight, who was at the very front center, stepped forward and shouted loudly.
“Your Majesty, please allow us to protect the Deputy.”
Then the other knights simultaneously repeated the same thing.
“Please allow us!”
Latil was laughing meaninglessly, but then her expression changed suddenly. Deputy? Zaicin? Did they know there was a deputy here and came to see him? Is it not because of the Hira high priest or black magic?
“A deputy?”
But as soon as she pretended not to know and asked, the knight who had stepped forward stood up and responded.
“Although the deputy ended up scheming against your Majesty, we can’t help but blame it on manpower. It’s not okay for him to get hurt due to the infighting among the consorts. So please let us protect him.”
“!”
Latil was surprised, and so were the officials around her, they all started murmuring again.
“The deputy is in love with the Emperor?”
“It looks like the Emperor is going to put the deputy in the harem.”
“Is that possible?”
Then an idea popped up in their heads.
‘Is the Emperor trying to put religion under her power!’
