"What is all that commotion?"
Lady Croff raised an eyebrow when she noticed how some a few curious maids and knights sneaking inside the court.
No one had ever dared to act like this near the court, then what could have happened to disrupt the order?
"You don't know?"
Alice casually walked while eating some salted peanuts, Lady Croff frowned when she saw her.
"It's because of those rumors," Alice said and continued to walk away.
"Wait," Lady Croff stopped her, "What rumors?"
"The ones that said her majesty is using her charm to misguide his majesty,"
"How...absurd,"
Nesrin had somehow managed to gain a upper hand above those that were tasked with keeping an eye on her, this made Lady Croff aware of how tactful she was.
However, Izekiel was the only emperor who had even killed and imprisoned the corrupt officials from noble and royal families. All that was done to maintain the efficiency of the court and to not let any unqualified person inside a position of power.
