"His name is Diana Cornor. They met when His Majesty traveled to the kingdom of Mordan a month ago. She's disguised as Dutch Philip's niece.."
"That means Dutch Philip's involved?"
"Actually Dutch Philip doesn't want to be involved, however he has great respect for your empress. But he was threatened, Your Majesty
" How can it be? Did Dutch Philip make a mistake? He was an honorable and clean man"
"As a Dutch noble Philip there is no noble defect. But as a head of the family, he was less strict with his children. Her Majesty The Empress must have known Dutch Philip's eldest son, Diego Vence. "
"He is the head of Velas."
"Yes Your Majesty. Diego was corrupt for the construction of the town hall, as well as forts of the city of Velase. His Majesty must know what punishment a corruptor should receive. This is what His Majesty the King used to suppress Dutch Philip "
Unknowingly Louisa's hand clenched in anger.
"How dare it.."inside it.
"Now where is the woman's position?"
"The empress' black bamboo palace. He's being guarded by Dutch Philip's bodyguard"
"Hmmm.the black bamboo palace is indeed included in the Dutch Philip's supervision area"
"During that time did His Majesty The Mulian King ever visit?"
"Every three days, your majesty. And once a week the King stays there"
"That's smart. Act as if visiting Dutch Philip, even though visiting his affair. So that no one suspects. And reasoned to divorce me because I was barren. I'll get you back, Peter. I pledge..
"murmured Louisa with indignation.
"Now what shall I do, Empress?"
"Stay watch as usual. Don't get caught, I'll surprise the King and the girl. They just wait for the time to come"
"Okay, Your Majesty, I'm resigned"
Louisa nodded. After the black-clothed man left, Reneism re-entered the room.
"Mother, arrange my meeting with Archduchess Elisabeth Wolfen. There's something important to do with him"
"Soon the empress"
"I'm going to rest, and I'm going to rest"
"Good empress. Slave retreat"
Louisa's heart and mind were tired. Not long after that he fell asleep.
*******
Elsewhere in the king's room, King Peter Henry was confused.
When he had just returned home from the black bamboo palace, he had accidentally met Empress Lorine in the hallway of the palace. There was a sense of nervousness and guilt in him.
Usually if he met with Empress Lorine, he would kiss and embrace her hand. But after he decided to divorce her, he was confused about what to behave himself if he met his queen.
"If only the empress had given birth to a son to me, I would not have done all this" she muttered to herself.
"I'm selfish, but divorcing you is a must so that I can marry Diana and give a son to me" she heartened.
*********
Sunlight pierced through Louisa's room curtain. Louisa squirmed lazily.
"Good morning Empress"Sapa Reneism.
He walked up to the window and opened it wide so that fresh air could enter the room.
"Good morning, mom. Beautiful morning" said Louisa as she looked out through the open bedroom window.
"Let's help the Empress clean up"
Louisa smiled and walked towards the bathroom. He took a bath with Reneism's help rubbing his back so that it was completely clean.
"Your Majesty, the general has returned last night. His Majesty's message has been conveyed and he invited His Majesty to dinner together at the General's residence"
"Tell me, I'll come. Besides there's more?"
"After this, if Your Majesty has no more duties for servants, I plan to visit Archduchess Elisabeth Wolfen."
"good. Go, I'll just go to the library continue my reading yesterday. I can be accompanied by another servant"
********
That was the day. While Reneism went to see Archduchess Elisabeth Wolfen, Louisa went to the royal library again.
Arriving at the library, Louisa goes straight to the bookshelf where the day before she finds an old parchment. Today he tried to check out the old books on the bookshelf.
Instead of taking them one by one, Louisa immediately brought seven books at once to her desk. After putting it on the table, he then examined the book from one by one.
One of the books discusses the arrangement of the divorce of the king and empress. From the book, Louisa also knew that in the event a queen could defend herself before the royal advisory board and ministers.
Even a divorced empress can be remarried by the king with the first record of the former empress never getting married after the divorce of the king. And the second time the divorce did not appoint a woman to be a concubine as a substitute for her.
Now Louisa better understands that the rules in the kingdom of Gordon turned out to be very defensive of a queen. He again made a note for himself, so that later he could better prepare for the breakup event.
The day had gone by, Louisa was about to return to her residence. It turned out that he had been waited on by Reneism in the front library.
"The Empress..."
"We're going home, Ren. I'm hungry" Louisa cut before Reneism finished her sentence.
They walked over to Lorine's residence while occasionally talking about the circumstances surrounding the palace.
Upon reaching her room, Louisa washed her face and hands and immediately sat down in the chair. The waiter who came with him to the library served both of them.
"Jane, pull up a chair for you and sit down. Eat with us" said Louisa
"Pardon the empress' servant, but the servant is not worthy" the servant replied
"I'm no longer a queen, do you not want to get a chance to sit at a table with a queen you serve? In the future, the same opportunity will not come again. Unless the king changes, and you're still here"
"The Empress.." said the waiter in a sad tone.
"Pull your seat and sit down" Louisa said once again.
The waiter finally pulled out one of the chairs and sat down. After that they ate together. After all the dishes were finished, the waiter named Jane cleaned the table and went to bring the former tableware they had used.
"Mother, how was the meeting?"
"He is ready, and invites the empress to have lunch together tomorrow at his residence"
" How about tonight with dad ?"
"He will send a horse-drawn carriage and two bodyguards to fetch his majesty"
"Alright, help me prepare. Prepare a simple dress for me mom"
"Good empress"
*******
The night came quickly. Louisa had finished preparing when there was a knock on her door.
Tok.dok...
Reneism opens the door. In front of the door stood a guard who used to guard the empress' residence.
"Servant Ren, there's two bodyguards from General Lucky Valley to pick up Empress Lorine"
"good. Wait a minute"
Reneism took a robe and put it on Louisa.
A horse carriage had been waiting in front of the palace. Louisa and Reneism ascend upon it and they set out for the residence of the Lucky Valley General, the parents of the consort of Lorine Valley.
