Led by the maid, we arrived at the room that Earl Rockford was waiting at.
Knock, knock.
Master, I have accompanied Iruma-sama.
Co in.
The maid knocked on the door to receive consent to enter the room, I heard Earl Rockfords voice from inside.
Everyone, please co in.
The maid urged us to enter the room.
Hey hey, sorry about rushing you. I hope you understand.
Earl Rockford rose from the sofa, then pointed towards the sofa in front of him.
Excuse .
Sophia, Maria, Marnie, and I are sat down, and Kaede clung to .
During this trip to Rockford, Akane, Lulu-chan, and Laeva did not co along.
Akane refused to socialize with nobles, and Laeva volunteered to house-sit because she was busy with her work.
I tried to convince her that it was easy to get along with Margrave Volton and Earl Rockford even though they were nobles, but Akanes butt seed rooted on its spot on the couch.
As soon as we sat down, Earl Rockford got right down to business. I wondered if Earl Rockford was impatient, but when I heard him talk about cherry blossom tree, I heard sothing more troubleso.
Iruma-dono, this isnt just between you and . Dont you think its cruel that only Godwin has it?
Haa, where did you hear about this, Earl Rockford?
Obviously it was from Godwin. His wretched boasting was both vexing and enviable. I would like to request one be planted in my garden.
Haa
As I thought, he found out about it from Margrave Voltons boasting.
I believe its only a matter of ti before it reaches His Majesty.
Uwaa~ I dont want to have to go the Royal Capital.
That wont do.
While I was feeling down, Earl Rockford made a follow up.
The flowers of the cherry blossom tree in the Volton castle were seen by the servants and rchants coming and going. I believe the rumors were quick to spread. To begin with, wouldnt the people from Papeck Company, who are authorized to co to the Sanctuary, have seen it? The Papeck Company is now a large company that spans not only Valkyra Kingdom, but all three allies of the Trination Alliance, so the nobles and rchants with good ears would desire this new thing.
give a break.
If His Majesty asks, I cant refuse, but if a mob of nobles and rchants I dont recognize ask , its nothing but a bother.
No, the cherry blossoms in Margrave Voltons castle can no longer be hidden. Thats why we have to think of a way to refuse the requests from now on.
Shall we hide in the Sanctuary?
Thats also an option. Only a select few can enter the Sanctuary, after all.
However, according to Earl Rockford, it was a fact that displeasure towards was increasing among the nobles in Valkyra Kingdom.
The Kings of the Trination and their Pri Ministers had attended the ceremony held by you in the Sanctuary. The nobles who werent invited to it do not think too well of you, Iruma-dono
Wait, wait, you wouldnt invite people youre not at all acquainted with to your wedding, would you? And it was in the Sanctuary.
Takumi-san, the amazing food served at your wedding is a popular topic in salons in the Royal Capital these days.
It was so tasty~! The food and the desserts both! Emilia wants to eat it again!
Oi! Emilia!
There was no way I would invite complete strangers to my wedding in the Sanctuary. When I said that, Madam Rose and Emilia-chan ntioned that the food served there was the talk of the town among the noblewon in the Royal Capital.
His Majesty and Her Majesty, Pri Minister Simon and his wife were all astounded by the food during the reception.
Well, lets leave the talk of nobles envy and jealousy to Takumi-san and my husband Maria-san.
Fufu, I brought several new products, Madam Rockford.
Oh my! As expected of you, Maria-san. Please, call Rose.
Then Rose-sama, shall we switch venues?
Indeed, Emilia, you will also need these soon, so co with us.
Yes Mother.
Well then, please excuse us.
Saying so, Madam Rose stood up, and Emilia-chan, Maria-chan, and Kaede also rose from their seats and left the room with her. And then the maids of the Rockford household followed, leaving only Sophia, Marnie, Earl Rockford, his butler, two knight escorts, and myself in the room.
umm.
sorry, Iruma-dono. Its likely that again.
yeah. All the won below the head maid are gone.
When I ntioned wed be going to the Rockford Earldom, I knew Maria and Kaede were up to sothing. I didnt expect it to be for the sa reason as when we first ca here, wons underwear. But, I guess we should just leave the won to it.
Afterwards, we had a discussion about where and how many cherry blossoms will be planted.
