An aide with an urgent look came over and whispered to Sissair.
It is said that the Queen maid was furious when the maid reported the Princess's secret affair and called the Princess to the palace.
Sissair paused.
'The Princess has a lover?'
Moreover, the ear placed in the Queen's palace said that the head maid had secretly leaked to the courtiers that the person in question was Etienne, the Minister of the Palace.
They said the head maid was going to reveal their relationship to the world in front of the Queen Mother.
'Etienne, you're playing a dirty trick. Isn't being the Prince Regent's right-hand man satisfactory?'
Sissair immediately realized that this was a collaboration between the head maid and the minister.
The head maid with a grudge against the Princess and the minister is greedy for power. It was the worst combination.
He touched his throbbing forehead.
This incident began with a conflict between the head maid and the Princess.
Please, if I can't help you, please just stay still.
But he couldn't leave it like this.
If it is urgent, this incident must be covered up, even by force.
"Sissair, please take care of Dea."
They cannot ignore the King's repeated requests before his departure.
"Let's talk again another day."
Sissair announced the end of the conversation without any regrets.
"As you wish."
"I apologize for making a mistake."
Sissair left the place without realizing it.
Minimal greetings, impatient steps. He could tell that something urgent was happening at the palace.
"Boss. I guess the play has started."
Gallo looked at Cesare walking away clasped his hands together and placed them on the back of his neck.
"The head maid bribed the Princess's closest associate. Can the Princess avoid this trap?"
Gallo turned to the spot where Sissair had left with curious eyes.
"Huh? What do you think?"
"Not really."
It was a boring voice.
"Specifically? Aren't you curious about whether the Princess will survive?"
"If It doesn't work out, that's the end of it."
"Boss, don't you feel sorry for the delicate girl struggling?"
Sorry?
It seems like she's behaved quite smartly so far, but if she gives up her rear to a lowly hyena or something that's aiming for her neck, that's where she'll end up.
"If you can't bite, you shouldn't bark."
"Who are you asking? Do you think the Princess will be bitten in this situation?"
Gallo drooped his eyebrows as if regretful.
"Well."
He'll find out soon.
If the Princess of Valdina resembled her motherland, she would have no chance of winning.
***
Queen Dowager Palace.
The crowd was agitated by what the head maid and Marieu said together.
"Is there a gift?"
"There is a token that Your Majesty the King and Princess shared with the man! An item engraved with the name of the person with whom Her Highness promised to marry..."
Marieu shrugged her shoulders but recited all of the information about the testimony.
"... It's in the Queen's Palace. Your Highness always looked at that token day and night and missed him."
In conservative Valdina, giving a token of love was only possible if the couple had promised to marry.
That much?
People opened their mouths. They couldn't believe it at all.
Everyone held their breath as the maid revealed the Princess's explicit behavior and looked at the Queen Mother.
"If so, you should check it yourself."
The Queen Mother ordered in a cold voice.
"Pinatelli."
"Yes, Your Highness."
A tall, thin woman standing next to the podium walked up and bowed.
It was Baroness Pinatelli.
She was the Queen's closest aide for nearly 20 years and was the Queen's most trusted person as she had a calm disposition and integrity and was not susceptible to any temptation.
"From now on, you will go to the Princess's palace and search through it. "If you get the proof they're talking about, let me know right away.
The Queen Mother turned her head and looked down at Medea.
"Do you have any objection?"
"Not at all."
Medea responded calmly.
After that, time passed quietly.
The Queen Mother fanned herself to hide her rising anger.
Still, as if her stomach was boiling, she coldly threw away the peacock feather fan.
Meanwhile, Catherine continued to make eye contact with the head maid and did her best to read her intentions.
'You shouldn't have looked for me so hard when your husband was trying to kick me out.'
Madame Cuisine completely turned around and blocked her efforts. If she makes the Minister a national letter, Catherine will notice her.
Breathe!
The head maid could barely stop herself from bursting into laughter at the thrilling thought.
Meanwhile, Birna yawned because she was bored with the long wait.
'Oh, I'm so bored. Pinatelli... When is she coming? She's all grown old and eating slugs'.
Still, Birna couldn't leave because she was curious about what happened next.
The others kept their mouths shut for fear of sparks flying and only exchanged glances.
Medea sat quietly as if she could not see this quiet bustle.
It would have been believable even if she was as hard as a stone, with her posture undisturbed.
Everyone waited for Mrs. Pinatelli to come back and break this icy atmosphere.
"The Prime Minister has arrived."
At that time, an attendant from the Queen Mother's palace came and secretly whispered to the Queen Mother. Soon, the man who had been granted permission to visit came through the door
"I meet Your Majesty the Queen Mother."
"Oh, Sir Cesare. Come here."
The Queen Mother's anger appeared on her face.
Sisair is this country's financial resource that even the late Kings saved.
Since he was a loyalist who actively supported his grandson Peleus, there was no way the Queen would dislike him.
"What's going on here?"
"I came to look for the head maid, and I heard that she was at the Queen Mother's palace."
Cesare answered smoothly.
"Your Highness the Queen, if it is okay with you, may I take the head maid with me?"
He hid his purpose for coming here.
No matter how kindly the Queen Mother treats him, she won't be happy if she finds out that he's receiving information about the situation in the inner palace.
"I'm sorry, but that's not possible. If it's not important, we'll have to put it off until later."
The Queen Mother immediately refused.
"It is not an urgent matter, so please do as you wish. But why are Her Highness the Princess and Duchess Claudio and his daughter here?"
He naturally changed the topic.
The Queen Mother paused. In her mind, she was contemplating whether or not it would be okay to leave the Prime Minister here.
'This matter is bound to become known anyway. In the end, he will take care of things...'
"You've arrived just in time. You decide the gravity of the matter. Medea, that cheeky thing..."
After hearing the brief explanation, Cesare agreed to the Queen Mother's request.
The head maid was nervous about the unexpected variable.
Why did the Prime Minister come? Surely you're not trying to save the Princess?
The two were famous enemies.
The relationship between the Princess, who messed up the administration by overusing seals, and the prime minister, who repeatedly blocked it, led to a catastrophe.
'It's okay. Even if you try to intervene, you can't get rid of Minister Etienne's handkerchief that Marieu had hidden. Medea, you are done.'
The corner of the maid's mouth twitched.
At that time, the servant opened the door.
"Your Royal Highness, Madame Pinatelli has returned."
"Oh, welcome."
"Your Majesty. I have returned after carrying out what I was told."
Mrs. Pinatelli returned and bowed.
The head maid, Madame Cuisine, looked at her with a triumphant look, lifting her chin as if she was as she said.
"So? Did you find it?"
The Queen Mother asked.
Quiet stillness.
Gulp.
The only sound that could be heard in the room was the sound of someone swallowing. Everyone looked at Mrs. Pinatelli's mouth.
Did the Princess really commit a secret affair?
No, there was something else that made them even more curious.
Who is the princess's secret lover?
Since they exchanged items with each other's names on them if Mrs. Pinatelli brought the gift, they would know right away.
At a time when everyone's expectations were heightened, Mrs. Pinatelli spoke.
