Chapter: 673
“Today too……”
Seibel pondered for a moment, then asked again.
“Did His Majesty not say anything about me?”
“What?”
Vellian pretended to stutter for a moment, looked away, and answered nonchalantly.
“Well, he never said anything about you.”
“Really?”
Seibel sighed quietly. Vellian looked at his friend and clicked his tongue.
‘Do you think he hates you?’
It was an obvious reason.
The relationship between the emperor and empress is still sluggish and is getting colder, and he must feel bad as a young and handsome knight hangs around the empress.
No ordinary nobleman would like such a situation.
As Vellian thought of Astelle, he remembered the conversation with Florin.
Before she was released and left for the countryside, Florin said Astelle had set her up.
“This is all the empress’ trap. I am innocent.”
Florin insisted so.
Well, it wasn’t very ridiculous.
Astelle had a good reason to do so.
“Yes, I’ll believe what you say.”
Vellian said so to Florin at the time.
From the poisoning attempt on the wedding day to the current case of the duke’s secret letter, he didn’t really believe Florin was innocent.
Anyway, he’ll believe her.
‘But what can I do just because I believe her?’
His Majesty the Emperor is obsessed with the Empress and does not even look at other women.
The maid, brought by the Minister of Home Affairs, was getting tired of the Emperor’s indifference every day.
