"Your Majesty, no. This is not true."
Grabbing the parchment, she jumped up and approached the Emperor.
The gait of walking to the throne was precarious.
'Bridget betrayed me. How did the Princess move her? Why Bridget... Rather than that, I must clear Your Majesty's suspicions now. I cannot let Your Majesty believe that I have betrayed him.'
The thought bit the tail on the tail, and it couldn't continue, and it ended up being cut off white.
For the first time in her life, Western Empress felt her mind go crazy.
"Your Majesty. It's a trap. It's a trick of the wicked who want to harm me!"
"Western Empress, what the hell is going on that makes you lose your composure? Fix it."
Without missing a beat, the Eastern Empress came down from the platform and grabbed the Western Emperor's hand.
On the surface, it may seem that the same Empress concubines are helping each other, but in fact, it was a movement to block the way for the Western Empress to prevent her from approaching the emperor's throne.
At the same time, the Eastern Empress quickly pulled out the parchment paper from the Western Empress's hand.
"Donghuang Rain-!"
After scanning the contents of the secret letter, the Eastern Empress was genuinely surprised and opened her eyes.
'It seems that the Western Empress has fallen into an unusual trap, so I tried to fight back.'
This is truly what it is.
Although she was momentarily shocked, the Eastern Emperor swallowed her emotions with her skill honed by her long life in the Imperial palace.
Instead, she deliberately exaggerated her anger.
"Oh, oh my God...! Oh, no, Western Empress?!"
Then, the Eastern Empress's unbelievable voice echoed in the banquet hall.
Her wide-open eyes even looked Innocent, like a girl who had discovered a great secret.
"This can't be true. Alfie, who is it? There is no way you can betray Your Majesty, but it's ridiculous. Western Empress, he is a lover of you."
The banquet hall was once again buzzing at the efforts of the Empress to tell the whole story in an exaggerated voice.
People were horrified.
So, the secret letter that they thought was a secret stolen by Valdina a while ago was actually a secret letter from the Western Empress?
"Eastern Empress, shut up...! Shut that mouth!"
The voice of the Western Empress stood up.
The way she tried to put a spear in her without missing the time was vivid in her eyes.
The Western Empress wanted to twist and break the neck of the Eastern Empress if she could.
Without realizing that if she hadn't caught the Fourth Princess Angelique just a moment ago, the Eastern Empress would not have tried to attack her so fanatically.
However, now was not the time to be held back by such a petty thug.
"Your Majesty, you know, right? For me, it's just Your Majesty. From the first time I set foot in the imperial palace. I always thought only of Your Majesty..."
The Western Empress jumped up and walked to the Emperors in a hurry, overtaking the Eastern Empress.
Perdiccas II's eyes were still confused.
He hesitated, not yet completely sure whether the secret letter was true or a well-made fake.
'Then there is still a chance. I can get out.'
The Western Empress, who managed to find a way out, swallowed her breath of relief for a moment.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the Western Empress. There will be no problem at all."
A relaxed voice interjected.
It was Cesare.
His face was calm enough to overshadow the tense air.
Like a sheep watching a beautiful sunset, he slowly continued with a smile on his Face.
"How could the wealthy Emperor not know the Innocence of Your Majesty the Empress? Even I know very well that for the rest of my life, since you set foot in the imperial palace, there is only our Emperor, so why are you so worried?"
His voice was incredibly gentle and even affectionate.
However, the protection of the First Prince, which sounded like helping and reassuring the Western Empress, subtly touched the Emperor's heart.
'Cesare is wrapping up the Western Empress?.... that a person who is no different from an enemy is on the side of the Western Empress's side.'
Doesn't this support that this secret letter is true?
The Emperor's eyes narrowed.
"From the beginning, I knew that the Empress had no feelings for me."
Perdiccas II and the Western Empress had a relationship that was formed not by affection but by political union.
At that time, there were other women he truly loved. However, he accepted the Western Empress to unite the new forces, including the father of the Western Empress.
Western Empress also chose to be by his side, alming for power as the Emperor's wife, not as a noble wife.
They have maintained an efficient relationship with each other without any emotions and have gotten along well for the past twenty years.
'That didn't mean you could hit me in the back of the head!'
Even if he knows that, it is a different matter for the Western Empress to betray him.
Even, isn't she the mother of the Third Prince, who wants to pass on the empire!
Perdiccas II glared at the Western Empress.
"It's rude. Western Empress, step back."
An ice-cold voice, a cold gaze.
It meant that he already had deep doubts in his heart.
Western Empress bit her lip.
She knows her husband well. He is a person who is particularly suspicious when it comes to shaking his position more than anything else.
'No, I can't let you do this.'
It is also a matter of later to catch and kill the First Prince and his wife, who betrayed him.
'The most urgent thing now is to clear His Majesty's doubts. I can take care of the rest later.'
Eventually, a resolute light appeared in Western Empress's eyes.
"What are you doing? Bring Western Empress to her palace."
When the Emperor's order fell. Western Empress picked up the sword that was on the floor of the sun.
Then she thrust the blade into her throat.
"I can't move a single step until Your Majesty believes in my Innocence."
"Western Empress!"
"Mother!"
People were surprised.
The Third Prince tried to approach. But the Western Empress raised her sword even more resolutely, keeping a distance from her son.
"I have been. I am Your Majesty's Lady, and until I die. If I can prove my innocence with my death, I will."
Her voice seemed to be prepared for death.
"Your wise Majesty, please see the truth in this filthy and filthy trap. The fruits of you and me, our Juan is watching."
Her unwavering, firm, unbreakable, and determined gaze faced the Emperor.
At that moment, the blade of the blade made a living appearance on the white neck of the Western Empress.
A stream of red blood slowly flowed down.
People held their breath. They were no longer in an atmosphere where they could talk about the inside story of the scandal.
' Western Empress, you must have calculated this far.'
Only Medea was calm there.
How could the Western Empress, who cherishes her son Juan like her alter ego, throw her life into such a trap?
Medea's eyes were not on the Western Empress, but on the people in the banquet hall.
If the person who is prepared to put it on today's stage has not yet appeared.
'We have to make it inevitable to appear.'
Her indifferent gaze glanced over her escort, who was still held like a sinner.
Menil noticed the signal and jumped up.
"No, Your Majesty, the Western Emperor."
She shook off the knights and threw herself towards the Western Empress.
"If this is the case, the reason why my master risked his life to protect Your Majesty will be useless!"
"No, let go!"
Menil, who was trying to take the sword from the Empress's hand, and the Empress, who was trying to get rid of it, were entangled.
'Why are you trying to interfere again!'
However, the strength of the sturdy knight was too much for the Western Empress to handle, and she swung her sword without even looking back and forth.
It happened in an instant.
"Whoaa-!"
"Catherine!"
Blood splattered over the hem of the Western Empress's dress. However, it was Menil's arm that was cut down by the sword.
Just then, a man stood between Western Empress and Menil, hugged her as if he were protecting her, and then stepped back.
A familiar scent and a nostalgic scent swept through the tip of her nose.
West Empress instantly stiffened.
