Chapter 387 (1/2)
Moreover, a temporary ducal mansion has been arranged in the royal capital, which can be regarded as a signal of Isabella's goodwill.
Duke Qiangwei did not explicitly say that Michelle was by his side for the time being, but instead let her pretend to enter the royal capital and temporarily let her stay in the temporary Duke's palace.
Merlin and Alice acted as guards, so they also rest here temporarily.
When Duke Rose was leaving, he asked his knight commander Myron to pay close attention to Michelle and not allow her to walk around at will. Then he went to the palace alone to meet Her Majesty the Queen...
In the evening.
The palace was lit up with brilliant colors shining around.
In the main hall, Isabella sat on the throne.
Below are the four thorn knights, Catherine, Hammill, Dexter, and Emanuel.
Duke Rose, wearing a gorgeous red dress, walked slowly into the hall, his leather boots making a clatter on the red carpet.
When he came to the center, he did not kneel, but bowed slightly and saluted Isabella.
”Your Majesty, it's been a long time since I saw you.”
”Well, long time no see.” Isabella paused and said euphemistically, ”Now we are in the chaos of the empire. If you don't support the northern defense line, why do you come to me in your busy schedule?”
”It's just passing by, so I just came to see your majesty.” Duke Qiangwei responded lightly.
Isabella immediately squinted her eyes and looked at Duke Rose, feeling that this man was talking with his eyes open, his face would not be red!
I came to visit myself from Wales specially, and led a private army of 50,000 behind him!
This is not a visit at all, but a threat of nakedness, showing one's muscles!
Isabella couldn't see Duke Rose at all, wondering what was thinking under the appearance of this gentleman?
”Visit me? Are you kidding me. You are encircling the capital with fifty thousand private troops, and you dare to say that it is a visit? No need to say any polite words. What is your purpose in coming here? It won't be reached with the Ofre family. Is there any consensus?”
Isabella didn't have much patience anymore, and she asked straightforwardly, wondering what the purpose of Duke Rose was.
”No, I don't have much friendship with Grand Duke Ofre, and it is even impossible to reach a consensus.” Duke Qiangwei denied it calmly.
”Then what do you want to do? The mighty private army is stationed outside the capital. How can you think that it is only for the rebels and thieves?” Isabella looked serious.
”Actually, I heard some rumors about your Majesty recently, so I was very puzzled, and I couldn't help but want to come and inquire in person.” Duke Qiangwei said meaningfully.
”What rumor?” Isabella had a bad feeling.
”Some people say that you are a fake queen, but in fact you are the queen's sister, Isabella.” Grand Duke Qiangwei said without hesitation.
As soon as she said this, Isabella's expression was obviously a little unnatural, but she quickly disappeared and recovered her composure.
However, the four thorn knights below showed strange expressions, bewildered where this rumor came from?
Isabella looked down at Duke Rose below, feeling restless in her heart, feeling that this rumor was not groundless.
”Why do you believe such rumors? It's slander at all!”
”Your Majesty calms down my anger, I'm just skeptical. Although I can hardly believe it, these words are all learned from your daughter, His Royal Highness Michelle.” Duke Rose moved Michelle out and continued, ”Mi His Royal Highness said that the king gave you and Isabella two relics, but the name behind your relic is not Elizabeth, but Isabella. This is indeed very puzzling.”
The following four thorn knights looked weird, but didn't dare to talk privately, but looked at Isabella.
”Hahaha, funny, Michelle is now in a rebellious period, because the previous imprisonment of Masefield had a disagreement with me, so I am still awkward, and it is excusable to say some inexplicable things.” Isabella Very cleverly avoided, using Michelle as a child as an excuse to let things pass.
”Then the king gave you the pendant, how do you explain it?” Duke Qiangwei asked.
”After my sister died, in order to miss her, I exchanged my pendant with her pendant. Is this problem doubtful?” Isabella said with a smile, but she was a little frightened.
Duke Rose's expression became dignified, thinking that everything is Michelle talking nonsense, right?
How could Queen Elizabeth be fake?It's abnormal.
This is related to the inheritance of the empire. How could such an error occur?!
But to be on the safe side, let's keep asking.
Duke Rose is still a prudent person, who does not trust Isabella and Michelle credulously.
”It turns out that this is the case. It seems that His Royal Highness Michelle is really naughty. Talking nonsense of this kind of things will cause trouble.
The expressions of the four thorn knights eased slightly, feeling that everything was a misunderstanding caused by the little princess, and it was no big deal.
”Yes, how can children's words be trusted, and they are all angry words, I am the orthodox of the empire, there is no need to doubt this at all.” Isabella said calmly, seemingly not caring about it. .
”Your Majesty is right. Then I will send His Royal Highness Michele back. Please remember to teach her not to say anything suspicious.” Duke Rose is now in a state of vacillation.
”Yes, send Michelle back, I have a lot to say to her now.” Isabella's eyes flashed a little bit of cruelty, and she didn't intend to let Michelle go.
