The Fourth Princess's Gossip System

211

Currently the Queen was sitting alone in the luxurious room of the palace. The dim light from the candles highlighted his pale face.

In his hand was a book that shook his confidence. He opened the books with emotion, eyes watching every word on the page.

The words in the book were like sharp punctures, seeping into the Queen's mind and heart. As he read, his anger and frustration deepened. His blue eyes flared with pent-up anger and suddenly subconsciously, the book fell from his hands onto the marble floor.

Brakes...

With a swift and furious movement, the Queen stood up. He walked towards the table, picking up some of his precious things that were placed there.

Cling...

Yes ...no.. cling...

The beautiful glass vase broke apart when it threw it on the floor. The beautiful pictures on the walls were shattered as his ornate statues crashed down.

The luxurious floors of the palace that had previously looked clean and neatly arranged were now filled with broken glass, pieces of ceramics and scattered items. The beautiful room turned into a chaos field that reflected the turmoil in the Queen's heart.

"Nonsense, who's anonymous!!"her shriek was enraged, her beautiful eyes turned ghastly as she stared one by one at the maids in front of her.

The servants could only lower their heads and not make any sound.

Now the Queen feels that she is in a labyrinth with no clear direction. He knew that this situation could threaten his position within the kingdom of Dayun.

Plaque..

A maid near the queen was immediately slapped and she sat down with flushed cheeks. Maybe because of the slap so hard there were some blood spots on the corner of his lips. It was just that this servant did not have the courage to wipe away that blood.

With great difficulty he immediately stood up again and lowered his head as before, acting as if there had been no slap incident just now.

Amid the ruins of her ruined room, the Queen fell sitting on her seat of greatness alone. His blue eyes gave off a complex flash of emotion. His anger and confusion mingled in his sharp eyes, reflecting the chaos in his heart.

"Why have I never taken this anonymous writer seriously before?" the Queen muttered in her heart.

He felt annoyed at himself for having ignored the obvious cues seen in front of him.

The words in the book kept haunting him. He imagined how the issue that should have only focused on the third Prince, now also involved him. Uncertainty and worry overpowered his mind, resulting in a dark and restless atmosphere within him.

"What should I do now?" whispered the Queen in heart. Now it is not only the beliefs of the people that may be tarnished, but also her position as Queen that can be threatened. He is caught in a complicated web and difficult decisions await him.

While he was still sitting amidst the rubble, his anger turned into determination. He knew he could no longer ignore the issue or pretend that everything was fine. He had to take appropriate measures to address this issue and restore stability within the palace.

Slowly, the Queen got up from her seat and looked at the shattered scenery around her. He pondered and planned his next steps.

Suddenly, there was a voice of the doorman announcing the whereabouts of the Queen's relatives who wanted to face.

"Let people in" said the Queen who made the servants rush out.

One of the servants came to the gate and allowed the person outside to enter to face the Queen.

The door opened and heavy steps were heard approaching. The Queen's eyes lifted as she saw the figure of her biological father and her brother coming into the room. Their faces looked tense and uncomfortable, as if carrying a heavy load.

The Queen's biological father, a man who had long worn the crown, had firm white hair but sharp and thoughtful eyes. He entered the room with steady steps, even though his face looked attentive and restless.

The Queen's biological father is the minister of state rites, who has served the country since the age of 22 years.So he is already very familiar with the regulation of the political world.

But today's matter is such an important one that it could even threaten the lives of him and his family.

Meanwhile the Queen's brother, who is young but already quite experienced in royal affairs.She has a face similar to her father. His eyes stared intently at the queen with small eyes reflecting deep and calculating thoughts.

" Dad, sister, this Queen is happy for your arrival" the Queen greeted respectfully as the two of them walked into the room still in disarray from her previous anger.

The Queen's biological father gave a faint smile in response, while his brother only nodded his head with a serious expression.

He had also seen how messy the Queen's room was, it was clear that the news outside had been heard by the Queen herself. So this scene could explain how furious the Queen was at this moment

"It's been a great news story all over the capital about this anonymous book" said the Queen's real father, his soft voice shrill amid the silence of the room. "They're linking it to you and our family"

His brother added in a more stern tone, "Gossip is getting crazier and threatening our stability. Queen have you investigated who it is anonymously?"

" this queen knows the problem is very serious. But until now this Queen herself had no idea who the author behind this book was or its motives."

The queen and her father laughed while talking to the anonymous author. They think the book is targeting the third Prince so they are safe. And the path for the second prince to become the crown prince was smoother because of it .

But who would have thought they were off guard for a moment and this was the end.

"We need to know more about this. We were caught off guard before but now we have to take swift action to resolve this situation."

His brother added, "But we have to be careful in responding to it. Stepping rashly can make the situation worse."

The queen nodded again, sighing deeply. "this queen needs your advice and help in this matter. You both have the experience and wisdom you need."

The Queen's biological father took a deep breath, knowing that the time for action had come. "We must find out who is trying to destabilize us and take steps to mitigate its effects."

The Queen's brother also said quietly"We should also consider ways to restore the kingdom's image and dispel any doubt in the people's eyes."

The Queen, the Queen's father and brother felt uneasy and afraid as they realized that this matter could have reached the Emperor's hearing. Anxiety crept in their hearts, creating an inevitable tension.

The Queen's father also felt anxious because he felt responsible for the survival of his family. Success or failure in dealing with this situation could affect the reputation of his family as a whole.

The repercussions that would be faced by them if this matter were to reach the Emperor were enormous. If the Emperor finds out about the Queen's role in this scandal, it could damage their relationship personally and politically.

As a result, the image of the royal queen could be shattered in the eyes of the people and nobles. The kingdom's power and legitimacy could be destabilized, creating dangerous instability in their families. The queen and her birth family may face disciplinary action or even exile.

If the Emperor felt that their actions threatened the integrity of the kingdom he would instead be sentenced to kill the nine clans.

In the end the Queen, her father and the Queen's brother sit together, expressing concern regarding the consequences of the scandal involving the book regarding the third Prince. They knew if this situation had a deeper impact than it initially seemed.

" If this bad news reaches the Emperor, our family will be in grave danger, father "

The Queen's brother, who was usually firm in his gaze, nodded in agreement, "I also feel that way. Some are trying to change the power dynamics behind the scenes. The fourth prince would be the biggest winner in this situation. With the second Prince drawn into the queen's scandal, the fourth Prince will more easily gain the support of the people and nobles."

according to the contents of the book, not only will the third Prince be removed from the candidate for crown prince, but the same applies to the second prince.

his mother's good name would make him unable to become a candidate for the crown prince.So the existence of the book completely got rid of two candidates at once.

Therefore the last remaining candidate was the fourth Prince. So it was easy for them to think that the fourth Prince was the person behind this anonymous author.

Previously they had never thought that the fourth Prince had the ability to do this.

Huh actually they are underestimating the wrong opponent.

Unfortunately, when everyone realized it was too late.

"This could be an opportunity for the fourth prince to get rid of the rivalry and take over the position of crown prince. He will be able to approach the people with his 'clean' narrative and place himself as a new hope."

While the father and son were talking about the next plan, inside the Emperor's room, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

The old eunuch had just finished reading the contents of the anonymous book to the Emperor. The Emperor's face instantly turned crimson, filled with a deep sense of anger and shock. Not long after, that angry expression changed with a sudden pain entering his body.

The Emperor felt his stomach contract violently and a hot sensation darkened his vision. In an instant, he felt his mouth filled with blood that finally spewed blood violently.

"Jeek...

Byur ...

"Emperor!!"

"Emperor... Emperor, try to calm down," Old Eunuch whispered attentively.He immediately patted the Emperor's back quietly.

So also with the healer who was always on the side of the Emperor. They were instantly preoccupied with examining the Emperor's situation through the pulse.

Also rushing someone instantly brewed medicinal herbs.a healer also asked the old eunuch to step back and give acupuncture with gold needles.

Quickly emergency treatment was carried out and fortunately the Emperor did not vomit blood again a few minutes later.

The main physician immediately whispered whispers with the other Physician to discuss what treatment they should do again after this.

A while ago, the healer did not feel any peculiarity in the Emperor's body. But today after the Emperor was caught vomiting blood they started to see that reaction and awkwardness.

Vomiting blood can be interpreted if the Emperor is experiencing internal injuries.The main healer takes a silver needle and presses it on the remaining vomit of the Emperor earlier.

As a result, the red color of the blood becomes blue when it falls with a silver needle.

In an instant, the face of this main healer was truly unsightly to see.

The emperor is in poison.

"Emperor, endure the Emperor "said the old eunuch from the side.He did not see from the side of the healer about the silver needle.He only focused on the condition of the Emperor only.

The Emperor tried to calm himself while enduring the unbearable pain. After a while, he was finally able to breathe more regularly.But he did not forget about the information earlier, the information if the third Prince was barren due to the cruel queen.

"Old Eunuch... This can't be all true!" The Emperor let out a voice with a breath that was still panting. "No one can make my son barren!"

The Old Eunuch looked at the Emperor sincerely, "Emperor, this lowly one knows that this is very shocking and unbelievable news. But this news still has to be clarified again.Seeing the physical condition of the Emperor is fragile, this lowly is worried that the Emperor must immediately rest."

This was just an inducement to the emperor, but it all did not work out at all.

The Emperor still felt disbelief and refused to accept the reality that had just been revealed. He clasped the blanket in his hand firmly, trying to get rid of the weak feeling that dominated his body. However, his gaze slowly faded and confusion read from his eyes.

" this emperor should ponder all of this," the Emperor murmured with a breath of breath. He closed his eyes, trying to gather his chaotic thoughts.

Old Eunuch nodded understandingly, "Yes Emperor. You need a good rest. Listen to what the Physician said.After healing, let's clarify again.Again, the third question does not exist in the capital today"

He knew that what he revealed to the Emperor was very shocking news and hard to accept. Now, the Emperor had to face the unexpected reality and reflect on the consequences of the information he had just received.

"The order is. in order that the queen be forbidden to leave her palace .And this applies also to his slave servants without exception" said the Emperor in a weak voice.

"The Queen cannot be sorry, she knows that the third prince was the Emperor's favorite for a long time.So she has the heart to do this.Do not let the Queen meet anyone.Capture ...the one who broke the emperor's order "the Emperor said again almost like one who was whispering.

Only the Emperor himself knew how disappointed he was about the Queen.

A woman's heart cannot be guessed.
