Chapter 1444
"Yes, Mr. Frank wants to meet Mr. Emperor," said Butler Stephen. "He said that he has an urgent matter to discuss with Mr. Emperor. There's also Mr. Alex, he's currently waiting in the outer hall."
"Oh? You still want to see me?" Alex was surprised. He looked at Aman and said mysteriously, "I think he doesn't need to see me. The answer he wants is still on Aman's side."
Aman glanced at Chloe. "Are you full?"
On this extremely demanding table for nobles, Aman still cared for Chloe as usual about whether Chloe had enough to eat or not. After all, if a wife did not have enough to eat, many things between husband and wife would not go well...
Chloe wiped the corner of her lips and nodded with a smile. "Mmm."
"Then let's check if there's anything that Mr. Frank, who has been dismissed, has to say." Aman finally picked up his wine cup and said to the Marquis. "Duke, in fact, I believe you have the right to make a decision. After all, after losing Simon and Lara, you still have the outstanding eldest son, Elsa. But after losing the Poswoth family, there will be nothing left."
After finishing the wine, Aman and Chloe stood up and said, "You guys go to eat first. I'll go and see that Mr. Frank."
Anderson also nodded at the Marquess and Elsa respectfully, and together with Aman, they left the dining table.
Looking at their backs, Alex said, "Tell Frank that I'm going to have dinner with dad, and then I won't go."
After Aman and Chloe left, Marquis looked at Alex and asked, "Have you really done your best?"
"What's Father referring to?" Alex asked.
"Of course it's about saving Simon and Lara," the Marquis said, looking at his eldest son. "I know they've committed a grave mistake, but they're still your brothers and sister, after all. Your stepmother is very upset, and I'm not feeling well either. I heard that although the people in the palace have taken over Lara, they haven't started investigating her case again."
"Therefore, Father wants to ask me if I can still save them?" said Alex.
"El, I know I'm sorry for Alex
"Father." Alex interrupted him. "On Aman's side, I really can't go and beg for leniency. Although he is my friend, his wife is too important to him. Madam was rescued because she was injured. Aman is already very angry. It's a blessing that he didn't implicate the Pochi Fus family!"
"Is there no other way?" the Marquess asked while clenching her hands.
Even though Simon and Lara had brought this upon themselves, as their fathers, how could he not try to come up with a way to save his children?
"If Simon and Lara were to be executed at the end of the day, but he wouldn't be sentenced to death..." As he cut the lamb chop in front of him, his golden eyelashes drooped. "Aman probably won't pursue this matter anymore. After all, he's only asking Simon and Lara to pay the price."
"But now His Majesty is suffering from senile dementia, how can she..." At this point, the Marquess suddenly paused and remembered something. "No, I called the people in the palace at night, saying that His Majesty may not have an senile dementia, and maybe he was controlled by that fake princess."
"So, father also knows about it," said Frank with a smile.
"If that's the case, then you also know about it?" Marquess was very shocked.
"Of course, both Aman and I know that there's no such a coincidence that His Majesty happened to have senile dementia. It's most likely that the woman in the Imperial Palace started to do something," said Al, "For example, when she heard that Nangong Yen and Lara were about to escape, she was afraid that the police would investigate her, so she wanted to seize the throne as soon as possible and so on..."
Even though it was the Queen who bumped into Nangong and took off her mask, forcing her to lay her cards on the table, it was almost as if she believed it as how Alex had guessed.
In short, Nangong wanted to seize the throne as soon as possible!
The Marquess immediately became anxious and asked, "Is His Majesty really controlled? Then you-"
"Father." Alex said solemnly, "It's not that you don't know about His Majesty's relationship with Aman. Ever since they spread out in discord during the tea session, it was impossible for the royal family to receive Aman's help. Aman is going to make His Majesty suffer. How am I going to enter the palace and help His Majesty now?"
"We're the nobles of Maria, so we should fight for the royal family's wealth..."
"Father." Unlock looked at the anxious Marquess. "We are the nobles who are loyal to the royal family. But at this juncture, do you think it is more important to help the royal family or to protect our Poswoth family?"
The Marquess' brows knitted even deeper. "You mean..."
"If Aman hadn't angered the Pochiphus family because of Simon and Lara, he would've been considered fortunate. To put it bluntly, we need to curry favor with Aman now." Alex seriously asked this question. "Father, you know that I'm not self- deprecating. If Aman were to help His Majesty because of us, he might fall out with us."
In one word, when could they help the Queen? In fact, Aman was the one who had the final say!
This was because Aman wanted the Empress to suffer a little.
Therefore, they could not go to the palace to save the Queen right now. At most, they could join forces with the other nobles to oppose the fake princess who wanted to reign over the country!
He was telling the truth from the bottom of his heart. Although Aman had said in the beginning that he would help him deal with Simon, things were already much more serious. Chloe was injured in the thunder pill because of Simon and Lara... Although Aman did not say it directly, he was clear that Aman did not settle accounts with the cruelty of the family because of him!
The Marquis didn't say anything. He realized that this was a matter of great importance, and that was whether or not the Pochi Fuss family would help the royal family or not in rescuing the Queen. They would all be under Aman's control!
The current situation was completely under Aman's control.
However, there was nothing he could do about the dukes. If not, Aman could turn hostile and anger the Pochi Fuss Family at any time!
The most important thing than loyalty to the royal family was naturally to keep their own family! - everyone had this selfishness!
"Then, Elsa, will you and Aman eventually help the elixir?" The Marquess could see that he and Aman were completely on Aman's side. "You won't let the elixir fall into the hands of others, will you?"
Faced with the Marquess's stern expression, Qu raised his wine cup to his father with a smile. "Father, don't worry. There's a grudge between the fake princess in the palace and Aman's group. Aman will not let that woman off! No matter how long it takes, as long as Aman gets rid of that woman, the great power of the palace will still return to the royal family."
"How long will it take?" the Marquess immediately asked, "His Majesty is getting older, and she won't be very long!"
"That will depend on Aman's mood," said Alex, "after all, His Majesty did not care about the consequences of letting Aman and the rest leave the palace during the tea party. It would be the same as sending away a guest."
The person who ordered Aman to leave had yet to appear before this!
Marquis was struggling. As a father, he could do nothing about the matter of Simon and Lara. As a noble, he could do nothing about the Queen's being controlled.
