The Inner Palace Tale of a Villainess Noble Girl

gossip part 11 - the outer palace room is very busy

Keith, with Hans, went back to the outer palace room, which he secretly secured in order to solve this case, and it seemed tragic.

"Is this all the treasures Mrs. Maris has put her hands on? Who's the buyer?

"Er, about the former chief woman's embezzlement of backyard expenses..."

"Hey, who put this paper over here? This is over there, if you mix it up, you won't understand!

"Can you get the back of the vendor who was making the artifacts?

"Oh, somewhere in that pile of paper if that's the case..."

It seems rough at a stage where the facade of the outer palace room and the related documents, some of the items of evidence, etc. are packed in an interior that is not that large and you have to seriously worry about the shipwreck. Keith accidentally fixed his glasses with his usual habits and sighed.

"I was away for just a few hours, and what the hell happened?"

"Ah, Mr. Keith! No, Your Majesty asked me to find out the whole story."

"So where is the idiot who packs everything involved into this room? Now, rejection would be inefficient."

"See, Mr. Orion, hey..."

I hate to bother you, the most miscellaneous man in the outer chamber is the root of all evil. It's the mountains that I'd like to complain about, but unfortunately I don't see Orion buried in a pile of paper. Your sermon is going to be for the first time after this matter is cleared up.

Behind Keith, Hans, looking indoors with indescribable eyes, shrugs.

"Well, who's going to clean it up..."

"You don't mind running for me, do you?

"No, no, that's just not right, is it?"

"Use whatever's standing, even your parents. It's an aphorism for the outer chamber."

"What, are you serious now?

"Unfortunately, the outer chamber has been understaffed for 10,000 years."

Keith pushed Hans along with the ink kettle and pen as he pulled some out of an untreated pile of writing.

"Please compile and list this content in a straightforward manner."

"Yeah, huh?

"You can't go home until it's over."

Keith says beforehand while classifying unprocessed writing at a terrible rate. Hans, who has excellent situational judgment skills, gave up the common sense penetration of "I, I'm a civilian" and "On the contrary, I'm a person on the dark side there," which went all the way out to his throat. I'm just hanging out with the Crestors, and this department called the outer chamber has changed considerably.

"If I can do it, I will. Where I joined, it's water in the baking stone."

"... but we'll have to do it"

"In the first place, I doubt it. That lady... Was she the former chief woman, how much is the aftermath of that guy?

"Come on...... if you classify it in detail, you may not have Kiri"

Hans gave a blatantly frightened look.

"You want me to reveal the rest of that guilt? That king, you say a lot of unscrupulous things. That's the end of the year."

"Clarification of sin, isn't it necessary?

"I'm talking about limits. The purpose of this one... Even so, I didn't ask in detail, but in short, if I could take my job and nobility away from that lady, that would be fine, wouldn't it? Then wouldn't it be quicker to 'figure it out' to the extent that it seems reasonable to dispose of it from whoever it is?

Living in the 'back', he doesn't like waste. It is common sense in the world in which he lives that he maximizes effectiveness and achieves his aims with a minimum of effort. I honestly get the impression that the tragedy in this room is reversed in terms of means and purpose.

To Hans's point, Keith let his eyes in the back of his glasses squeeze. It's rare for him to be calm, a face poked at the void.

"Sure... you're right"

"Besides, what happens if we figure out the full story now? Fool, do you want to be honest with the public?... including about the crown?

The last word Hans added was that it had the power to instantly shake Keith's head, which was in fact slumber and dull in his thinking skills, while his appearance was always as clear as ever.

Slightly panicked, Keith turns around the roommate who was working near the entrance.

"Earlier, you said this was an instruction from His Majesty, didn't you?

"Huh? Yeah, Your Majesty's instructions. Your Majesty would like to publicly punish the chief woman for all her sins because she has been made false so far."

I'm not kidding. If you do that, you won't know what you've struggled so far for and reclaimed your crown. Hans next door is shrugging his shoulders too.

"... Your Majesty, which way?

"Heh? Uh, maybe I'm coming to the next room. I want you to take a look at the documents we've compiled."

From here, it's faster to turn from the hallway than to use the inner continuation door.

Hans thought as he stood silently and looked sideways at Keith as he left the room.

The great people are going to be great, and they're struggling.

Keith, who circled the hallway and stood in front of the next room, was first surprised that there was no Kingsguard knight in front of the door. His Majesty the King seems to be moving so far that no one will notice.

I beg your pardon.

"... Keith?

"Yes."

The sound of rattling and knobs turning. The door opened from the inside and it was Alford's face that peeked.

"You still wanted me here"

"Oh, well.... In the meantime, get in"

Ahead of being urged in, as expected, was also the figure of His Majesty the King. I am going through every document loaded on my old desk with a serious look on my face.

Surprisingly, there are no other Kingsguard knights indoors besides Alford. Keith exhaled deeply.

"Aren't you being careless?

"I think so, too. You can't use anything but Kingsguard knights right now to wash Mrs. Maris and her surroundings."

"It's already moving to secure," he said?

"No? I'm ordered to keep it for a fact check for now. It's a pain in the ass to be fought back."

It was fortunate for the people to make Alford's election as the current King's Kingsguard Knights Commander. He's always avoiding the worst.

"... by the way, I heard that Your Majesty was ordered to reveal to the outer chamber all the charges against Mrs. Maris"

"Oh, you need to, right?

"I mean, that makes her guilty publicly?

"I have to, I can't officially dismiss you.... Hey Keith, what's up?

"- What I'd like to ask you is whether this' crown theft 'is included among the matters to be made public."

To Keith's words cut into Zubari, Alford lost his word for a moment.

"... I didn't confirm that."

"Yeah, because I was missing it, too. By the way, this is also advice from some people, but when it comes to unraveling the vices of the former chief woman without leaving them, it takes a terrible amount of time. I was wondering if this place should give priority to getting rid of her and publicize as many sins as possible to sinners"

"Ugh... one thing, one thing"

Keith nodded loudly.

"Of course, it is necessary to wash out, whenever possible, those who have illegally bought treasures from Mrs. Maris or who have borne the burden of her evil deeds. but is it important to fulfill it and do it at the same time?

"When you dispose of them badly, do you get backlash from people..."

"As long as this one holds the evidence, you can always punish him. Now for one thing, shouldn't we be targeting the former chief woman and her collaborators?

"I see what you're trying to say....... Keith"

Alford stares at me with a little sword sight.

"I need to ask you something. Did you know, in advance, that Mrs. Maris had her hands on a national treasure?

"If you don't know, you won't be ready to go this far"

"I knew it! Why didn't you tell me?

This time, the outhouse room and the Crestor family's biggest purpose was to "uncover Mrs. Maris' sins" and "not take care of the crown matter". … to do so.

You say, "To trick the enemy, you start with the allies, right? I say no, but even Deanna didn't know any of the details."

"... Miss Deanna too? It didn't look that way."

"You know better than I do how good those people are at hiding their true intentions."

"I was, you were... Uh, it fitted nicely."

He has a headache and scratches, and Alford changes his body direction.

"Well, check with Your Majesty."

"Please"

"What are you talking about? You're the one talking."

"Me?

To Keith with a strange face, Alford should poke a numb finger.

"It was the outer chamber that said it out. What if you don't tell me?"

"It's not exactly us..."

"Did I say something?

"No, let me tell you something"

Alford is right, it would make sense for the utterance to advance. Keith quietly approached the desk where the king would line up. The conversation between Keith and Alford was taking place a little deeper near the door, so it seems the king never noticed.

He looks up when he realizes people's signs, and looks at Keith and looks strange.

"Was it Assistant Director Heisette? Hey, what's up?

"I have one question for Your Majesty."

"To me? Tell me."

Around pretending to be a calm breeze, but not hiding his anger, this king is still young. Keith dared, cut out loosely.

"This time, it's about treasure crown theft and sideliness. How does Your Majesty intend to deal with this matter?

"What do you know? reveal the sins of all those involved, including Mrs. Maris, the mastermind, and impose severe sanctions"

"... I mean, brighten up the matter," he said?

"It won't be a story that can fit inside"

- Sure, Keith thinks. It is also a felony equal to national treason, such as the sale of a national treasure by a person in the position of chief woman. Normally, it should not be hidden, and the conciliation bureau can be asked to enter the investigation and be considered a case to be thoroughly truthful.

But it is. It's only a story in The State of the Royal Family's Absolute Authority.

"Really, does Your Majesty think that's the best?

"It doesn't matter if it's the best or not. This has to be right."

"- Then I ask you, Your Majesty, as king, right now. But isn't there a 'muscle' that should determine the righteous queen?

Keith's eyes behind his glasses glow hard. Being a civilian, he was oblivious to martial arts, but the power his strength showed when he didn't pull it off here was something that led to men going to battle.

- And Juke was not so foolish that he could not perceive it at all.

"Well, that may be...!

"If His Majesty had chosen the righteous queen at the same time as his reign in the first place, this incident would not have happened. If you go through the 'muscles' of the case, you'll naturally be able to touch it there."

"... what are you trying to say. Are you going to tell me that the uncertainty of the Queen and Princess is disrupting the country, just like the people in the Home Office?

"I'm just suggesting that passing through the 'muscles' isn't just meant to be. If this is my concern, it's extra."

A little while ago, a king said, 'I'm worried about you!' In a word, I would have cut the story off. However, accepting without running, even in painful words for himself, and deciding to think with his own head, he looked Keith in the eye straight back from the front.

"... is that what you mean when I want to find out the truth from the will?

"We want you to stop and think calmly once and for all,"

"I'm calm!

"It's common sense in the world not to be as calm as a human screaming like that"

Zuba was cut off with a knife to return, and the king silenced himself for a long time. He's well aware that there's blood on his head while he's saying something.

Alford is silent and watches the interaction between the two. Think for yourself and choose 'best' instead of admiring the 'answers' people have told you. - He never speaks to the king's choice because he thinks that's what he needs most right now for Juke.

"- … best, for the Kingdom, to be a good result. I guess that's the 'best' and I should choose, the way to go"

"Your Majesty..."

"I'd like to ask Assistant Director Heisette.... If, for example, that 'best' was off its original path, can you say that the choice is the right one?

There is a legend that an indecisive king may be insulted, but Keith did not feel sorry for the troubled, lost, and distressed king in front of him now. Hundreds of times better than a king who is imbued with unfounded confidence and does not omit himself.

"- We don't know what's the right choice in terms of national politics."

"Yes...... is it?

"All we can do is figure out exactly what's going on, figure out how to do it for our country and our people, and do it. Be flexible, honest, and face the challenge on the spot. If it gets better as a result, that choice will have been right, and if it gets worse, it will mean wrong. That's what I think. … just,"

The king stares back at Keith, who has stopped the words, with a straight eye.

"It's just... what?

"Above all, if you order your liver to 'the people' who should have the highest priority. I personally believe that there are many 'answers' that I can see for myself"

The king opened his eyes wide. I think of something, and eventually I get a nasty, troubled grin.

"Everyone says the same thing..."

"Sire?"

"Nothing. Right - 'the people'?"

When the king sifted and shook his head, he turned his gaze toward Alford.

"What is now apparent in Mrs. Maris's guilty plea?

"Is there such things as embezzlement of public money and the privatization of rear palace equipment, as well as dereliction of duty?

"... what about the national treasure?

"There's no doubt from circumstantial evidence, but they haven't left any physical evidence in this case. Unless a confession can be made, the Ministry of the Interior and the Mediation will be cautious in disposing of things alone."

"What is the quote of those who would be connected to her?

"The washout of those who bought out the rear palace equipment is over. It's just... I don't leave the realm of speculation about those who knew her evil and missed it and kept it in their favor"

It just seems to be holding back on the king's side, in fact, Alford, who was thoroughly reporting and compiling information on a case-by-case basis. Like water that does not precipitate, I even answered.

"I see, well..."

"Sire, what can I do for you?

Juke gives Keith a resolute look when he asks.

"I'm sorry I put you through so much trouble. Do you want to rush the evidence consolidation on what Alford just said?

"Public money embezzlement and the privatization of the rear palace equipment, right? Our successor, Mrs. Magnum, has already investigated the failure of the former Chief of Staff."

"Okay, I'll leave the sharing to you."

I hear the king has decided something. To his gaze, Keith bowed his head deeply...
