Chapter 1406: Sign the Contract!
The queen looked out the window, noticing that the empress was suddenly being dragged away by the guards.
The empress was shouting, “Why? Why didn’t you believe ? Why? I have dedicated myself to the empire. Please believe . I have done nothing wrong. I’m not involved with the Death Society in any way!”
The emperor ca out and waved his hand, shouting, “Guards! Take her away!”
“Please believe !” The empress was in tears.
“I was foolish to even believe you. With such overwhelming evidence, are you still defending yourself? You disgust .” The emperor raised his voice.
The queen tilted her head in confusion. She couldn’t help but take off her blindfold to see beyond just normal scenery.
‘Why are they dragging the empress?’ The queen was confused. ‘And what’s even weirder is that her fortune is growing rather than decreasing even though she has been caught. What are they doing? Are they playing around or sothing? But…’
The queen raised her head, seeing the blinding fortune. ‘Even though it has been hidden, this kind of overpowered fortune should belong to that person…’
The queen felt a sharp pain in her eyes and hurriedly covered her eyes with the blindfold again. ‘I don’t know what’s going on, but either way, a person with that much fortune doesn’t seem like he’s planning to screw the dynasty over.’
“Where is the left guardian?!” The emperor shouted.
“Here, Your Majesty.” The left guardian appeared out of nowhere.
“Co in.” The emperor looked hurt, as if he wanted to discuss the thing that hurt her, which must be the empress.
However, the queen noticed sothing else. ‘That’s weird. The left guardian is being called? The right guardian and the left guardian are the two heaven guards whose sole purpose is to protect the emperor.
‘If they’re going to discuss the matter regarding the queen, shouldn’t he bring other people instead? The two guardians are not eligible for it.
‘Besides, why not bring the right guardian as well?
‘The left guardian is a genius that the Erwih family has nurtured deeply. Or does it have anything to do with the right guardian?’
The queen furrowed her eyebrows. In the midst of her thought, she suddenly heard a knock on her door.
When she opened the door, she was surprised to find the empress actually visiting her instead. “Sister?”
The empress’ expression was solemn and resolute. “I’m going to jail for a bit. I need your help.”
…
anwhile, inside the eting chamber, the emperor was complaining. “I never thought the empress would do such a thing. And I never thought that the empress would betray and the dynasty with the right guardian. Can you believe this?!”
“Your Majesty…” The left guardian lowered his head, wanting to comfort him but not daring to say a word.
“Don’t say anything. The Erwih family has been gracious to the Vhaskura, but to think they would betray !” The emperor roared, releasing all his anger.
“Your Majesty. This is a crucial mont.” Johnson fell on his knees. “It’s best to clean up the empire without making it big. We have to capture the right guardian as well.”
The left guardian looked at Johnson’s pitiful state and thought, ‘It looks like Johnson has gathered enough evidence. A few months ago, they put the empress under house arrest for an investigation.’
The emperor gritted his teeth and sighed. “I used to trust the empress the most. But after this, I wonder if I can still trust anyone else…”
“Your Majesty…” Johnson panicked.
“Your Majesty. Please endure your grief.” The left guardian dropped to the ground. “I am willing to help Your Majesty in any way I can. I will definitely capture that traitor, the right guardian, as long as Your Majesty gives the order.
“Unlike the right guardian, I’m eternally grateful to the Erwih family for adopting into the family. Thanks to the family’s grace, I’m able to have all these achievents.
“All I want is to repay the family’s kindness. Please order to capture the right guardian, Your Majesty!”
The emperor let out a long sigh. “If we capture the right guardian, it will weaken the Erwih’s family even further. It won’t be a good thing.”
“But this is better than having a spy who is ready to betray you at any mont. If you keep him by his side, there’s a chance he will try to kill you, Your Majesty.” The left guardian suggested.
The emperor sighed. “Still, if we lose the right guardian…”
“Your Majesty. I’m willing to bear that task alone. I know it’s going to be hard, but I can endure any hardship until Your Majesty can find another guardian to take that post.”
“Left guardian… You are truly…” The emperor sighed. “You are truly loyal to the family.”
“Ever since the Erwih family adopted , I have always considered this family to be my family. I am willing to die for this family.”
The emperor scratched the back of his head. Johnson suddenly suggested, “Your Majesty. How about suspending the positions of the right guardian and the left guardian for the ti being? In exchange, we can create the position of Supre Guardian and give it to the left guardian for the ti being.”
“This…” The emperor bit his lips.
The left guardian fell to his knees. “I’m willing to do everything for Your Majesty.”
The emperor looked hesitant, so Johnson took out a paper. “Your Majesty. I know what kind of impact the evidence I brought will make. That’s why I have prepared this as a temporary asure.
“This is a contract that will give the left guardian temporary supre authority for your safety. If we can solve this matter quietly, it will be the best. Once the contract is fulfilled, the supre guardian position will be revoked and replaced by the original positions.”
The emperor wanted to speak, but the left guardian had already placed his head on the ground. “I’m willing to endure any task. Please allow to show my loyalty to the family.”
“…” The emperor let out a long sigh before saying, “Alright. You may sign it. I don’t know whom I can trust right now. I hope I don’t place my trust in the wrong person, Left Guardian.”
“Yes, Your Majesty. I will prove you right.” The left guardian answered with a serious tone.
