Chapter 1391
"What do you want me to do, Veron?" The queen looked at him with tears in her eyes. Her eyes were red and she said bitterly, "Do you want me to lose my children in my old age and make the throne fall into the hands of others?"
"Your Majesty, please be a little soberer," Frank said immediately. "Even if the throne fell to the second or third-in-line, it would be better than if it fell into the hands of unknown people. The second and third-in-line successors, even if not given birth to His Majesty, are also from the other princes, and they are also from the royal bloodline. If the current Princess Sara is fake, then the throne is equivalent to being in the hands of outsiders!"
The queen's heart ached and her eyes welled up with tears. "I'm just... I can't face you. I've already lost impermanent. I'm afraid I'll find out."
"His Majesty has asked you to think in a good way that perhaps Princess Sara is still alive," Frank said. "Or perhaps, the Princess Sara is the real one. However, we must clarify the doubts and investigate them."
The queen did not say anything and the old lady's lonely expression appeared on her face.
She had lost her husband and her son was her enemy. Was she going to lose her only daughter?
"When I sent people to check the Princess Hall on king's island today, I was stopped by Princess Sara," Frank said, "after His Majesty returns, I hope that you can see Princess Sara in person... you'd better confirm that she's really Princess Sara. For example, you can ask her more questions about the past and see if she knows."
The queen still did not speak, her expression cold and unflustered.
"There's another thing," Frank said. "We received news at noon. Aman and Elsa came into contact with Simon before leaving the palace. After Aman and the rest left, the guards discovered that Simon was injured."
The queen looked over slowly. "What's this for?"
"However, there isn't any danger to his life for the time being," Frank said. "According to the guards, it might be because he had a conflict with Aman's group. Let's make our move."
"Men?" The queen sneered. "We can't get what we want. Shall we take action as soon as possible? After all, Simon is impermanent's fiance. How can they look down on me so much? And maggot is also in the team?"
She could not help but start to doubt her loyalty!
Could it be that even if he was on Aman's side, he would still dare to ignore her as a queen!
"Your Majesty, don't think too much about the current situation," Frances refused. "The Posgphs Family is loyal to the royal family. There's no doubt about this. If Aman makes a move against Simon, he might be worried that his wife will be in a bad mood, so we'd better turn a blind eye to it... Anyway, Simon's life is not in danger now."
As for whether Aman didn't take the Queen seriously, they couldn't control it now. After all, Madam was kidnapped in the palace... They really owed Aman an explanation.
The queen listened to Frank's suggestion and did not bring up the subject relating to Simon. "I'll return to King's Island and rest for a day. I'll arrange for a guest to attend a foreign affairs event as well as for the police to track down young lady as soon as possible. I'll leave the matter to you."
"Yes." Frank stood outside the carriage and made a bow to the Queen. "Your Majesty, please take care."
Watching the queen's car leave, Frank made another call to Aman to tell him that Finch and the rest had not found Chloe at the place they had provided in Sara.
As soon as he hung up the phone, Hank, the housekeeper of Prince Charlie, hurried over and watched the queen's carriage drive away. "Mr. Frank, is His Majesty gone?"
Frank put down his cell phone. "His Majesty has been busy dealing with state affairs lately. He's tired, so he'll temporarily go back to King's Island to rest."
"I have something I need to report to you personally, your Imperial Majesty." Hank' face was filled with worry. "Please inform your Imperial Majesty immediately."
"It doesn't matter if you tell me."
"Mr. Frank." Hank looked at the secretary and advisor of this most trusted Empress. "Although you have the title of the 'Second King', it is just a title. Mr. Frank, you really don't think that you can do anything in order to replace His Majesty."
Frank was not in a good mood at the moment, but he was always calm and rational on the surface. He said directly, "If Butler Hank has any dissatisfaction with me, you can respond to His Majesty yourself when he comes back. If you don't need to tell me what happened to you, you can wait for His Majesty to come back the day after tomorrow. I'm just too busy to deal with a lot of things."
Watching Fort turn around and leave, Hank immediately said, "His Majesty will return to the palace the day after tomorrow?"
"His Majesty needs to rest," Frank said.
"Then please wait a moment, Mr. Frank." Hank had no choice but to call out to him.
"Hemmers Chamberlain, what's the matter? Tell us as soon as possible." Finch stopped, thinking that he was talking about Prince Charlie. "But I'm going to arrange for the guests to participate in the foreign affairs event of the Magnus. The assassination of Prince Charlie has been handed over to the police, and I don't have much time to directly deal with it."
Hank was Prince Charlie's butler. He wasn't someone who had an official position. In terms of status, he couldn't be compared to Frank.
This was especially so now that Charlie had been assassinated. He was like a single butler who had lost his owner.
But because Prince Charlie's majesty was still there, no one in the palace dared to despise him!
Hearing Frank's words, the veins on Hank' forehead popped out. He gritted his teeth. "So, Mr. Frank doesn't want to interfere with the assassination attempt on the prince's behalf?"
"Hm?" Frank turned his face back and asked, "What did Butler Hank find?"
"In the past few days, I've been searching in the palace for suspicious people, people who might want to assassinate the prince." Hank controlled his efforts at this moment and said, "From the day the prince was assassinated to today's surveillance record, I've already re- populated it and looked at it carefully. If my kung fu doesn't fail me, I'll still be able to discover some clues!"
Frank turned around. "That's perfect. The honored guests will be leaving the palace today. I've told His Majesty that if the honored guests leave the palace, it'll be even harder to investigate the person who assassinated Prince Charlie. Since Butler Hank has a clue, that's great. Tell me, what did you find?"
Hank took out a USB flash which he copied with a surveillance video. "At the night of Princess Sara's engagement with Simon, Lara brought four bodyguards to the palace..."
"Bucky, let me warn you." Frank spoke out. "The Puciphus clan has brought more than four bodyguards to the imperial palace. But his family has been loyal to the royal family for generations. I don't say anything else. All of his family members, including his servants, definitely wouldn't dare to harm the royal family directly."
"I didn't mention the bodyguards of the Pochius clan. I was only referring to the four bodyguards who followed Lara." Hank said. "From the start of the engagement banquet until the vote for the throne election period, those four bodyguards didn't stay outside the palace. Based on what the family is doing in the palace, those bodyguards shouldn't have left on their own."
Frank frowned. "Maybe they sent the four bodyguards to do other things, which doesn't prove anything."
