A Red Lady (13)
Then, the voice of dissatisfaction immediately subsided, but there were people criticizing the emperor.
The emperor repeated that the voices were united and scattered, and when they formed an appeal again, he returned his answer by cruelly trampling on them.
Therefore, the nobles today only despise the Suin people behind their backs, but they could not openly criticize the royal family over the Suin issue.
It was because they were so afraid of the imperial family.
‘Damn it! The royal family! What’s with the royal family? There is a royal family that cannot protect the rights of the nobles!’
Marquis Wenson thought that the imperial family was a creature that had to protect the aristocracy and that it had to take the lead in keeping the Suin people away to protect the noble’s precious lineage.
That’s why they’re like beasts!
Even though they are human beings. However, their root was the beast. It’s a completely different creature from humans.
‘I can’t forgive you!’
The marquis went to the carriage, getting annoyed at the servant who was trying to help him. His mind was full of thoughts to avenge the crown prince.
But any thought led to the woman he met in the Marquis Hassler.
The sinister woman whom the servant called the godmother.
Is she still in Hassler Street? The Marquis of Wenson somehow felt that she was only staying in the house, not living.
“Master, let’s go.”
The coachman’s voice rang and the carriage shook slowly. Marquis Wenson was already determined.
“Let’s go to the Marquis of Hassler!”
* * *
Marquis Wenson, who made an impulsive decision to turn the route around the Marquis of Hassler, regretted the decision when he reached the door. No matter how much he thought about it, she was suspicious, and the plan to release the second queen was considered dangerous.
However, the Hassler family’s mansion was open.
As the gatekeeper opened the door as if he had been waiting, the driver drove the carriage inside before Marquis Wenson could stop him.
‘Damn it!’
The Marquis of Wenson looked calm, trying not to show a frightened face.
The Hassler family’s mansion was still bleak. The employees were seen, but it was difficult to see the hostess or other family members of the mansion.
The marquis, who got out of the carriage, was guided into the former drawing room. Again this time, a woman in a black dress was waiting for the marquis.
“Welcome, Marquis Wenson.”
“We see each other again.”
Marquis Wenson, who had already judged her not to be related to the Hassler family, responded coldly.
The woman did not show any displeasure at the Marquis’ remarks. That attitude of the woman brought the confidence of the Marquis.
“……I don’t know what the leaders of this family are doing and you keep showing up!”
“Aren’t you here to see me? I’m the only one who can help you.”
The Marquis clenched his teeth at the faint voice coming over the veil. What she said was true, but it was hard to shake the idea that he was being deceived.
“What power do you have to help me?”
“I’m powerless as you can see, but my child can do that. Have you ever thought about why this Marquis Hassler is safe from producing sinners?”
The Marquis of Hasler was once a revolutionary co-writer. I thought that the reason why the marquis of Hasler, a half-brother, was able to survive was because the Second Empress was a rather distant relationship.
The Marquis of Hassler was once part of the Duke of Leviarden. He thought that the reason why his half-brother, the Marquis Hassler, was able to survive was because he had a distant relationship with the second empress.
Duke Leviarden, who could not abandon his daughter, and the brother of the second empress left the family.
The Marquis of Hassler had long been separated from the Revised Duke. However, it was the same as the duke, so he suffered various disadvantages.
In the meantime, it was great to revive the family to this extent and put his daughter back in as a candidate for the Crown Princess.
“Are you saying that it’s all power from the second empress? Don’t make me laugh!”
“You know the rumors circulating secretly around that street. Rumor has it that the Marquis Hassler is going up to the tower to see his sister because he can’t forget her kinship. The marquis family denied it, saying it was unfair, but….”
Marquis Wenson had heard of the rumor. But he didn’t listen.
Everyone knew that the Marquis of Hassler and the Second Empress were not on good terms. As long as the Duke Family was ruined by the foolishness of the second queen, he thought that the Marquis Hassler would hate the second queen.
“The Marquis has been seeing the Second Queen?”
“When the child is released into the world…… Your Majesty will wake up, and it won’t matter if the world changes.”
Don’t you want to be close to the next emperor?
The woman whispered softly to Marquis Wenson in a charming voice. The Marquis, who was listening to her absent-mindedly, panicked.
It was the dream of all the nobles to be close to the emperor and command the world. Marquis Wenson also dreamed of becoming an emperor’s father-in-law, and was thinking that he was close to that dream.
Although it came in vain.
“To the current Crown Prince…… Do you mean you can fight against him?”
“Why would the emperor want to lock my child in a tower before the Crown Prince grew up? It’s because she can be the only enemy of the crown prince.”
As she said, it was the emperor who set the two empresses up against each other. Then, as he was agonizing over whether to take out the second empress, the woman whispered again.
“If the Marquis pulls my child out and makes the emperor rise again…… Then the Marquis will become a loyal servant to him this time.”
If it were any other situation, he wouldn’t have fallen for her words.
