Chapter 92: Secret Discussion in the Imperial Palace

The maid’s scream was unusually piercing in the cold morning, spreading far away, so much so that it alarmed a large group of people. There were maids, guards, and teachers secretly sent by the Academy to protect the Princess. Almost within a short minute, nearly a hundred people gathered in the back garden.

Even the Little Princess was alarmed. Wearing pajamas, yawning, and dragging velvet sleep shoes, she slowly came to the garden and asked, “Damn it, why are you screaming early in the morning? What exactly happened?”

“This~” Everyone looked at each other, their faces red from holding back, but none of them dared to speak. They just moved intentionally or unintentionally, using their bodies to block the Little Princess’s sight.

Seeing this, the Little Princess was furious. She impatiently pushed them away and walked over to take a look. Suddenly, she felt her vision go black, and a nameless fire rushed straight to her head.

It turned out that by the wall of the back garden, there were a few particularly tall trees. At this time, a dozen naked men were hanging on them with ropes. Everyone was conscious, but their mouths were stuffed with their own smelly socks, so they could only make sounds but couldn’t speak.

Among them was Liao·Chaoqun. And this Guard Captain obviously received special treatment. A wooden plaque about a foot in size was tied with a rope to his little brother, which was still quite robust. On it, a few large characters were written crookedly, ‘Salute to Little Princess Highness!’

“Ah~!” After seeing these words clearly, the Little Princess, Lanslo Snow, immediately went berserk. She screamed, and then shouted hoarsely, “Little Stephen, I want to kill you!”

The sorrowful and angry shout of the Little Loli, driven by her unique voice, almost covered half of the Magic Academy. At this moment, countless people were stunned, unable to figure out what exactly happened between these two noble figures. Thus, countless boring gossipers swarmed out, inquiring everywhere, seeking to get the most accurate first-hand information.

Such a big matter obviously couldn’t be hidden. Almost in just one morning, the upper class of the entire Griffin Kingdom knew about it.

……

In the Imperial Palace, the Emperor and the Queen, the two supreme beings, were sitting together, listening to the detailed report of the Royal Secret Agent leader. The Secret Agent leader had just finished speaking about the scene of the Little Princess screaming and roaring, and His Majesty the Emperor couldn’t bear it anymore. He smashed the golden wine cup in his hand on the spot, and red wine liquid spilled in front of the Secret Agent leader. In that bright color, there seemed to be a touch of inexplicable blood! The Secret Agent leader knew that this time many people would be in bad luck, and among these people, his own figure might very well appear. A chill instantly filled his whole body, making his kneeling body even lower.

“This Little Stephen is really too much!” His Majesty the Emperor said annoyedly, “He has already made my Little Princess suffer enough, but now he dares to play such a trick? Isn’t this taking advantage and still acting cute?”

“Exactly!” The Queen also added fuel from the side, “Our poor Little Princess was beaten by that bastard until she lost control of her bladder, becoming the biggest joke among the nobles. Now her guards have been treated like this, and such obscene words were written. Heavens, can the dignity of our Royal Family be trampled on by the Stephen Family at will?”

Hearing this, the Emperor’s face became even more unbearable, and he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. So he vented his anger on the Secret Agent leader in front of him, and angrily cursed at him, “You guys too, I spend such a big price to support you every year, what do you do? Why didn’t you discover someone tampering? Why didn’t you let those hanging idiots down in advance? Why did you let the Princess see this ugly scene?”

Facing the Emperor’s accusation, the Secret Agent leader couldn’t help but defend himself aggrievedly, “Your Majesty, our recent manpower is all investigating the robbery of the Augustus Family, so it is seriously insufficient. There were only 2 people keeping watch at the Princess’s place. However, the Princess’s villa originally had more than 50 guards. Apart from those dozen idiots, there should still be more than 30 people? Who knew, they actually didn’t discover someone secretly tampering?”

“These damn idiots!” His Majesty the Emperor immediately threw his anger on those guys, and then angrily said, “Chop off the heads of that disgraceful Liao·Chaoqun and the idiots under him. I can no longer tolerate such disgusting trash staying in the Imperial Palace as guards!”

“Yes!” The Secret Agent leader hurriedly agreed and was about to go out and execute people.

“Wait!” However, at this moment, the Queen suddenly stopped him, and then persuaded the Emperor, “Your Majesty, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on Liao·Chaoqun, he was just following orders!”

“Can following orders excuse his disgusting act of exposing his lower body in front of the Princess?” The Emperor said angrily.

The Queen didn’t answer directly, but first waved her hand to send the Secret Agent leader away, and then said to the Emperor, “Your Majesty, our Little Princess has been greatly insulted again this time, are you going to continue to tolerate and indulge? That will only make the Stephen Family go even further!”

“This is just a matter between children, don’t always drag the family into it!” The Emperor then frowned. Obviously, he was still very clear-headed on this point, knowing that he couldn’t blame the Stephen Family for this.

“But no matter what, we can’t continue to endure, right? We must give the Stephen Family a warning, otherwise, that uneducated child of theirs might do something else!” The Queen then said, “Besides, this is unfair to our Little Princess. She has never suffered a loss since she grew up. If we don’t help her vent her anger this time, I’m afraid she will get sick from holding it in!”

The Emperor thought for a while, suddenly frowned and said, “What do you mean?”

“Your Majesty, how about using this Liao·Chaoqun to teach Little Stephen a lesson? If the Old Magic Saint pursues it afterwards, at worst we sacrifice this servant. In this way, we help our daughter vent her anger, warn the Stephen Family, and don’t lose anything, why not do it?” The Queen whispered.

The Emperor hesitated after hearing this, then asked doubtfully, “Little Stephen is grounded now and hardly goes out. If Liao·Chaoqun wants to teach him a lesson, there is no chance at all, right?”

“Your Majesty, have you forgotten? Didn’t you recently assign the Hercules Family to hold a banquet?” The Queen asked with a smile.

“Yes, I wanted the Hercules Family to mediate the conflict between the Stephen Family and the Augustus Family. After all, they both have considerable power in the Kingdom. If they fight, it will affect the entire Kingdom. But it’s not convenient for me to come forward personally, so I secretly handed it over to the Hercules Family. I think both the Stephen Family and the Augustus Family will know it is my intention!” The Emperor nodded.

“That’s good then!” The Queen immediately laughed, “I heard that Little Stephen has a good relationship with Miss Constantine of the Hercules Family. If Miss Constantine invites him, Little Stephen will definitely attend. At that time, on his way back, if he is attacked by a group of unidentified people, it will be interesting!”

“This little bastard, he is clearly the fiancé of my Eldest Princess, yet he dares to mess around?” Hearing this, the Emperor was even more angry and couldn’t help cursing, “Hmph, he really overestimates himself. Is Constantine someone his trash can chase? Even my Prince wouldn’t dare to easily make a move on Constantine! He actually still~, tsk, truly worthy of being an idiot!”

“Hehe, whether he is an idiot or not doesn’t matter, as long as he is willing to go, that’s enough!” The Queen said with a smile.

“Mm!” His Majesty the Emperor considered for a moment and said, “Alright, execute it like this. However, the degree of execution must be controlled well. Just let that bastard boy lie in bed for a few months, but don’t leave any disability, and certainly don’t kill him, otherwise I won’t be able to explain to the Teacher!”

“Yes, just rest assured, leave it to me, it won’t be wrong!” The Queen said with a face full of smiles.

……

Almost at the same time, in Rui Li’s Mage Tower, Rui Li and the Little Princess also began to denounce Liao·Chaoqun.

“You idiot, stupid, trash!” The Little Princess pointed at Liao·Chaoqun’s nose and cursed, “I asked you to deal with Little Stephen, not to make a fool of yourself! How did you handle things?”

“Princess, this can’t be blamed on me. As soon as we entered there, we were knocked down by their magic trap!” Liao·Chaoqun said aggrievedly, “You, you didn’t remind us?”

“Is that so?” The Little Princess immediately looked at her Teacher in doubt.

Rui Li couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Liao·Chaoqun and said, “The magic traps there are not trigger-type, but must be manipulated by a Mage to activate. Obviously, there wouldn’t be a dedicated Mage on night watch at that time, so you must have exposed yourself, and they were prepared in advance to knock you down!”

Hearing this, the Little Princess was immediately annoyed and cursed, “Damn Liao·Chaoqun, so it was still your incompetence? You stupid pig!”

“Sorry, I was wrong!” Liao·Chaoqun finally understood what was going on, and could only keep kowtowing to admit his mistake.
