Chapter 926: Yelled at
Another few days passed before the prime minister arrived.
When he arrived, he came in a large group of carriages.
Otherwise if he came on the wyverns, it wouldn’t have taken him more than two days to come even with the large group that he had brought with him.
It was just that he couldn’t move all of those wyverns that easily since this was a tense situation.
There was no doubt that the surrounding countries had already found out that the Midra Kingdom was being taken over by the Kite Kingdom. If there were many wyverns that were moved at this time, they would misunderstand this as the Kite Kingdom mobilizing their troops for an invasion.
We had just finished a war, we couldn’t fight a second one that easily or our people would suffer.
So the prime minister came in carriages.
As soon as he arrived in the capital, there was a large commotion that was stirred.
The regent actually didn’t restrict the number of people that came to watch, so the streets were completely crowded. There were waves of people that were on both sides of the street and there were even people that were on the rooftops.
No matter how one looked at it, this seemed like a situation that was ripe with danger.
It seemed like a perfect chance to assassinate someone.
But that didn’t happen in the end.
Since the regent planned for this, he naturally secured the whole area so that nothing like this could happen.
When it was over, it seemed like the citizens of the former Midra Kingdom were placated about the fact that their kingdom was being taken over. It seemed like they understood that the new rulers wouldn’t be as bad as the old ones, so there was something to look forward to. It seemed that the regent had already thought of everything.
It was just too bad that they never got to see the other side of the prime minister, a side that only a few people would be able to see.
It was different from the usual calm and collected manner that he had.
Though this was a side of him that even I rarely saw because he usually tolerated what I did quite a bit.
“Your majesty, what do you think you’re doing?”
Those were the first words that came out of the prime minister’s mouth when he saw me.
He didn’t call me brother in law, he just simply called me your majesty in this cold voice.
It was clear that he had completely lost his temper and that there was a lecture that was about to come.
But since we were in front of everyone else…
I just raised my hand and said with a smile, “Sorry, I didn’t follow the plan.”
The prime minister was completely taken aback when he heard this.
He looked at me as if he didn’t know what to say, which gave him the time to realize the place that we were in.
It seemed that he had forgotten himself a bit in the rage that he felt over what I had done that The actually forgot where we were.
Once he calmed himself down enough and realized this, the prime minister gave a cough before saying, “In the future, please inform me before you do anything.”
The two of us both felt strange when he heard this since it was a familiar scene.
Though it was usually me saying this rather than the prime minister.
But this wasn’t the only thing that the prime minister had for me.
He came forward and leaned in to say, “The queens asked me to bring this letter for you.”
I trembled the moment that I heard this, but I took the letter that he offered me.
I knew that even though I had avoided being yelled at by the prime minister, it was impossible to avoid this second scolding.
There was no doubt that this second scolding would be much worse than the first one, but there was no one to blame but myself for this.
I was the one that went along with the former second prince’s plan, so I could only live with the consequences of my actions.
But that was for later.
After this moment with the prime minister, I called him over to where everyone else was and introduced him to them.
The one that I was the most concerned about was the regent, the former second prince.
This former second prince and this former fourth prince, though they came from different countries, their reputations had been the same.
They had both been known as people who were calculating and would do what needed to be done.
Though based on what I had seen from the two of them, it seemed like the former second prince was more vicious than the former fourth prince.
At least when it came to family, the former second prince didn’t show any mercy at all whereas the former fourth prince had just let someone else take care of it.
I was worried that the two of them might suddenly fight against each other for power.
As I watched with an anxious look, the two of them came up to each other after being introduced to each other. They just looked at each other for a bit as if they were sizing up the other side and then the prime minister and the regent reached out their hands at the same
time.
They both reached out only a single hand, but it didn’t seem like they were about to hit each
other.
Instead, they just grabbed each other’s hand and gave a shake.
The way that they looked at each other was as if they had suddenly found a friend.
It was as if they had connected on a deeper level, a level that didn’t need a single word.
I couldn’t help shaking my head with a bitter smile seeing this, but at least it seemed like they were getting along.
