Chapter: 644

“Th-thank you, Your Majesty, the Empress……”

Naen bowed her head belatedly.

“I, I also have the honor to serve Your Majesty here. And….., thank you again for showing your mercy.”

It was a low voice, but there was sincerity in her last words.

Astelle nodded quietly.

“Your Majesty.”

Then Hannah came inside.

“Oh, yes, Hannah.”

Hannah gave Astelle a meaningful glance. Did she find the answer to the code?

Astelle put down the report and smiled at Naen.

“Miss Naen, you did a great job. Will you go to the library one last time, organize the books there, and find me the harvest records?”

“The harvest records?”

“Yes. It’s been a while, so I want to find a book of etiquette in advance and prepare for it.”

Of course, there was no need for such a book of etiquette.

She was just trying to stall before Naen went back to her room.

The naive Naen meekly headed for the library without much doubt.

As soon as Naen closed the door and left, Astelle asked Hannah.

“Did you find it?”

“Yes, it was a book, as expected.”

Hannah put down a note that she decrypted with a note she found in the garden.

“I have been interpreting the content.”

Astelle opened the note.

A few words were written on a small piece of paper.

[Prince. Pet dog. Next time. Poison. I will give it to you. Feed it.]

“She’s planning to poison the dog?”
