Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 228
The royal palace courier’s sudden arrival with the king’s decree startled even Cardinal de Mare.
‘Already?’
The cardinal wanted to pull the courier aside and demand an explanation, but he couldn’t treat the king’s envoy so disrespectfully.
Without anyone’s interference, the courier entered the grand foyer of the de Mare mansion under the guidance of Il Domestico. Behind him strolled Sir Del Pianosa, the king’s secretary.
Sir Del Pianosa took the decree from the courier and positioned himself at the exact center of the marble floor.
Before him loomed the de Mare mansion’s peculiarly tall and narrow central staircase, coiled like a spring ready to leap. Ariadne’s palms grew clammy with sweat. Sir Del Pianosa cleared his throat loudly.
“I bring forth the words of His Majesty, the exalted Sun of the Etruscan Kingdom, the sole and sovereign dignity of our realm!”
The entire family descended the stairs and respectfully bowed before the royal decree.
Sir Del Pianosa began reading aloud.
“I, Leo III, extend my gratitude to my loyal subjects who have faithfully fulfilled their duties during these trying times.”
Cardinal de Mare had not given Ippolito any prior hint about the title the king had promised. Thus, his foolish son stood there, eyes wide and vacant, utterly unable to grasp the meaning of the decree before him.
The cardinal had deliberately withheld that information at first, fearing it might go to Ippolito’s head.
Even if Ippolito had known that a title was forthcoming, there was nothing he could actually contribute—he couldn’t possibly earn merit in such a short time. All he’d do was strut around boastfully; and like his mother, he had a loose tongue, likely to spread rumors recklessly throughout high society.
Although gatherings had been severely restricted lately due to the plague, gossip still traveled with astonishing speed through letters and correspondence, so caution was essential.
Moreover, ever since the incident a week ago, the cardinal had begun seriously reconsidering his stance. He hadn’t initially wanted to bestow the title upon Ippolito out of paternal affection.
