29~—Turn to the Offensive (Part 1)
"His Royal Highness, the eldest princess, took precautionary measures to calculate the correct start time of the plague and the formula for its solution. This is beyond the scope of logic. Could it be that Rasamboto dreamed of His Highness the Princess and asked His Highness to rely on this? Save the Blood Spirit Empire?" The Duke's voice was full of cynicism.
After saying this, all members of the royal family turned their eyes full of suspicion and suspicion towards Bai Ji.
"Yeah, that's a little weird too"
"Now that I think about it, how could it be possible? It's not normal for a useless princess to act without burning her salary."
"I don't really want to speculate on the eldest princess with the worst idea, but it's the truth."
Words like this kept breaking and shattering, and even though they were speaking in a low voice, Bai Ji still heard them.
"You guys, are you enough?" The prince looked at the chattering nobles indifferently. "I suspected that there was something wrong with the yào my daughter gave me, and now I suspect that it was my daughter's du, apart from suspicion, should you have more important things to do?"
"Don't get me wrong, Your Excellency, what the Duke said is not unreasonable."
"Yeah, we just want Her Royal Highness to explain it, there is no malicious intent." The prince defended his daughter, Victoria did not express her attitude, and the nobles still did not dare to say things too frankly.
"No ill intentions? Do you have any ill intentions in your own hearts? This king only knows that when this king is sick in bed, you are nothing but distracting thoughts." Seeing these nobles, big and small, slandering themselves in front of them. My daughter, a gentle prince rarely got angry.
And he also knew that the seeds of doubt had been sown, and even if he could protect Bai Ji today, he would not be able to protect the suspicion of these great nobles towards Bai Ji in the future, which was very unfavorable to Bai Ji.
"What's the matter? Maybe it's because the royal sister got Rasambo's instructions. Is there any problem?" Yana said rudely. "Your Excellency, the affairs of our royal family do not need anyone else to make irresponsible remarks, please respect yourself."
"It's me who has overstepped, and I'm very sorry for that." Upon seeing this, the Duke apologized decisively, and glanced at Bai Ji at the same time.
Now that Yana has moved out of the royal family's private affairs, in order to avoid suspicion, even as a duke, he can only stop here. Queen Victoria is still here.
He also did not expect that the royal family would be monolithic, protecting the unwilling eldest princess from top to bottom, and even including the contender for the throne, His Royal Highness the Second Princess.
As far as the other party points, the royal family can't do anything with this duke.
The blood clan adopts the feudal system, and the lord has great authority in his own territory, almost equivalent to the king, but he swears allegiance to the royal family out of faith and loyalty.
However, the royal family is always the royal family, and they control the beliefs of the entire Blood Spirit Empire.
I heard that some of the blood clan people are the believers of Rasambo, and the Rasambo clan is the orthodox. If the royal family gives an order to demote the lord to a traitor, then the common people under the lord's rule, even the personal guards, will be destroyed. Possibly backwater.
Therefore, it is impossible for the duke to rashly do such a risky thing. Even the blood spirit nobles who held the power in the previous life did not dare to abolish the queen, but instead established a puppet emperor who was not in power to facilitate control. .
To resist the royal family, at least one big lord does not have that ability.
The duke said no more, his goal had been achieved, making the great nobles present doubt the eldest princess.
"I don't mean to offend you, I just think about the empire wholeheartedly. Your Royal Highness, the eldest princess, is magnanimous. Don't blame me." The Duke bowed slightly to show his piety and etiquette.
In just a few words, Bai Ji was easily pushed into the quagmire of suspicion. The situation was very bad, and Victoria kept silent from beginning to end, and the great nobles wondered if the queen also treated them. 's eldest daughter is guessing.
The prince glanced at Victoria with some resentment, as if blaming her for not speaking for Bai Ji at this time.
Victoria watched this drama silently, as if she didn't see the signal from her husband at all.
She wanted to see what kind of counterattack Bai Ji would make when she was at an absolute disadvantage.
Is it a desperate effort to ask his family for help, or a turnaround to turn the tide.
"I've disturbed it today. It's a blessing in disguise that Your Excellency's condition has improved. Since that's the case, I won't stay any longer. I won't disturb the reunion of the Prince and his family, so let's just leave it alone." Step tight bi will only arouse greater disgust in the royal family.
However, he intends to withdraw his sword, someone is not willing.
In this world, where is the truth that only takes advantage and does not suffer? If you want to leave after exporting a set? It does not exist.
Since she intends to do this, she has considered all the possibilities, and naturally she has also considered Solanya's identity. There will definitely be some great nobles who don't like her to make things difficult for her.
For this, she was already prepared.
