The Emperor's Prisoner

The Emperor's Prisoner
XXIV



I'm starting to worry, maybe this place has been “ cleaned” so there is not the slightest trace of crime. I stayed there long enough, until morning came. I decided to check Jarvis's place.


 


Another palace of the empress, in the residence of Jarvis I can be free and open. No need to hide to check it. This residence is not as spacious and complete as the royal palace. There are only 2 rooms. The bedroom and there is a front room. Search the two rooms carefully. And this is more of a steal at all. I exhaled a rough breath, why was there no clue whatsoever.


“ what there can be special room?” shirihku. Start thinking about all possibilities. It is not wrong if their movements are so slippery, even after they are caught I still have difficulty getting evidence.


“ better back” walk out of the room, accidentally highlight when I see a candle in the corner of the room. It feels awkward, nearby there is no candle holder. This ex cannot be created just like that.


I walked over to him, following the pattern of the candles printed on the floor.


Krekk, though,,


I heard a wood sound that felt strange. There's a room behind this floor. But how to check it. My eyes began to check around, perhaps a suspicious object was used as the opening lever.


“ what is this?” my germs. But no, nothing happened. I noticed the candle pattern back. This former only meets one point, then the opening lever must not be far from this former. Groping any object with your hands.


 Crutches, crutches..


Finally open. It turns out there is a brick wall that if pressed then this floor will open. It looks so dark. I looked for a candle in the bedroom, took it down with a wooden ladder. This room is so hidden. When entering at a new intersection gets a laxative of the torches along the hallway. I was totally disbelieved of the room I found afterwards. The room was large and full of reports. I was wrong to take them for granted, their strategy was so neat.


“ I got it” I cheered happily. Fate is still on my side. After this everything will really end. I examined and brought strong evidence to prevent their conspiracy. And back to my palace.


 


After keeping everything neat, I cleaned myself up. The waiter prepared the food. When I finished, I sat in front of the shade.


“ noble” that voice looks like I know him. I just directly looked.


“ you? “ I looked at him in disbelief, it was a long time ago that I forgot someone who was in front of me.


“ you must still remember me” he said seeing my entanglement.


“ what did you come here for?” continuing my breakfast.


“ a few days ago I met Zoya, before she was caught. He told all the truth. Instantly made me even the group now feel guilty. And we are now a group of your loyal followers” I fell silent for a moment digesting his words.


 


“ loyal followers? Too soon you guys sum it up” how can that fast they give up everything.


“ yes noble, arrival I just want to convey that. If there is a mission for us, we are ready to carry out. At once I brought some objects that Zoya told to give to you” I saw there was a medium-sized box out of the cloth package.


“ what is it?”


“ all things group related as well as a book written by Zoya herself” from her words I was a little interested in reading it.


“ well Ares, I think I really want to see your sincerity” I took a piece of paper writing a mission for them to work on.


“ wait for next instruction” by giving a piece of paper.


“ good noble, I resigned” after a waiter came in. Ares is quite capable. Successfully entered the kingdom without causing a commotion, even though the rebel group is still not finished discussion. It is very dangerous if the royal people know of its existence.


“ noble, Lucien's bodyguard is conscious. The healers are checking his condition”


 


According to the waiter say. Lucien was seen sitting on the dinner bench. The healer had just left, they said that Lucien's condition was still weak but the poison in his body had been successfully removed.


“ you've been better like?” Lucien was surprised to see me in his room.


“ the noble!” he was so happy to see me again.


“ you're like you're just meeting your wife, yelling that loud” I'm sitting on the bench next to her.


“ I'm afraid can't see your majesty again “


“ no need to cry” teaseku.


“ ih the noble”


“ how are you doing now?”


“ I've been well and fit. Your Majesty don't have to worry about me” he caught my attention too much.


“ good, tomorrow you have to work “ I stand leaving it. Lucien looked pecked at my words.


“ your majesty once” she cried when I was at the exit. I just smiled hearing that chatter. I can finally hear his voice again.


 


My body felt so tired, I decided to go back to the palace again. After meeting the prime minister, tell him to prepare for the meeting tomorrow morning. A break for a moment doesn't matter. I must immediately solve this problem, not to drag on and give them a gap to escape. It has been too long, this time should be able to truly settle this grudge. There is no mercy, all the sorrow, suffering and death of loved ones they must be able to pay.


 


Mentari was already seen, Lucien with his look of regret was already outside my palace. Awake as before. I salute her ability, if it wasn't for the important conditions I wouldn't have told her to go back to work. This meeting will be a moment to close all cases. And I want him to also give his testimony at the royal meeting later.


“ noble, “ Lucien gives greetings as soon as I see me out.


“ today there will be a big meeting of the kingdom. You're safe and give your testimony”


“ good noble, I will fight with you”


 


We headed for the great royal hall. I saw all the ministers and some royal elders already present. They stood up to welcome me.


“ sit” as soon as I get to my seat.


Some ministers were whispering, I knew people like this must be empresses. Not a skill to be proud of.


“ these few months the kingdom is having such a difficult time. Even the imperial seat had to be empty for several days. I know many of you must be wondering the reason behind all this. Therefore today as crown prince of the Mosgarath kingdom I will forgive the truth that you may find it difficult to believe “ the atmosphere began to feel tense. A few Royal Elders frowned. Ask the real question what I want to say.


 


“ you guys are impatient for sure. As an opening I want to tell a truth that has been hidden for years. Kahla, some of you must know this name very well. A noble woman who had been married to the prince of the kingdom and suddenly died when the prince ascended the imperial throne “ some people began to whisper, the atmosphere of the hall slightly rumbled.


“ this woman is my biological mother” all staring in disbelief. This fact made the atmosphere become silent for a moment. Everyone was still digesting the truth they had just heard.
