Chapter: 463

Kaizen, who was looking at the document, looked at the senior officials sitting around the table.

At the meeting a few days ago, Kaizen announced that he would make Astelle the empress again.

Of course, no one welcomed it.

Kaizen already knew that the nobles were strongly opposed to it.

But now that the great nobles have fallen, no nobles dared to complain to the Emperor.

Instead, they were pouring out the anger they couldn’t tell Kaizen at Vellian.

“I ordered to build a new palace for the Empress. How is it going?”

“Your Majesty, that……”

At Kaizen’s question, the Minister of Home Affairs hesitated to answer.

Kaizen turned his gaze to the officials one by one.

Of course, the high officials averted their gaze.

“Are there any complaints among the officials that I will remarry the empress?”

A silence fell again at the urging to speak up if there were any complaints.

The officials who were gathered still looked disapproving, but no one dared to speak his mind.

knock knock.

Then an urgent knock broke the silence of the conference room.

“Your Majesty.”

The person who opened the door was the knight protecting Astelle.

“Why? What’s going on?”

Kaizen’s heart sank when he saw the knight who was supposed to protect Astelle come here.

‘Did something happen to her?’

Just looking at the sudden intrusion during the meeting, it was clear that something unusual was happening.

The young knight glanced at the officials gathered in the conference room and said,

“Your Majesty, I have something to report to you for a moment.”

Kaizen sensed the anxiety in his tone of voice.
