A satisfied smile appeared on Florin's pretty face.

"Yes, he did. The Duke sent a secret letter to the West to gather soldiers and prepare weapons. I have caught the servant who delivered the secret letter."

Astelle was genuinely surprised and asked, "You caught him?"

It was surprising that her father had prepared for the assassination and rebellion at the same time, but it was also surprising that he had left the person who delivered the secret letter unattended.

If it was her father, he would have hidden such an important person somewhere, or he would have just killed him when the plan failed.

But Florin, who is only a young lady of the Marquis family, caught a witness who could destroy the Duke family?

Not the Marquis of Croychen himself, but Florin, who has just come of age?

'This is so absurd that it's hard to believe.'

Florin spoke confidently, "He is a servant to the duke. I caught him with great difficulty and he is in a safe place now. Ask your father directly."

"......"

I can't believe my father even entrusted such a dangerous task to his servant.

"Did he say that he had delivered the secret letter?"

"He had a secret letter. He said the lord of the west had confirmed the letter and returned it to him. He kept it in secret without telling the duke in case of an emergency."

Florin looked at Astelle's surprised face with joy.

"The content was a code, but....., it wasn't too difficult to interpret. I also checked the duke's seal was on the letter. It was unquestionably real evidence."

It was unbelievable in any way, but Florin seemed confident that she had the victory.

It's surprising that this clever-looking lady really believes in such an absurd story.

After all, Florin is still a young lady who has only spent her entire life in a mansion.

Astelle recalled that she, too, had truly loved Kaizen at that age.

Florin declared with a triumphant smile, "If Your Majesty the Empress will help me, I will keep this a secret."

"......"

There is a servant who took the secret letter containing the subject of the rebellion, and the secret letter is stamped with the seal of the duke.

The evidence was clear, but it was too weak to the point of being absurd.

'Did my father really prepare for a rebellion?'

Of course, my father was always looking for an opportunity to get rid of Kaizen.

He plotted to assassinate the emperor on tour and a rebellion at the same time.

If the assassination succeeds, there is no need to rebel, and if the rebel succeeds, there is no need to attempt the assassination. This must be the plan.

Of course, it would be better if both were successful.

It's hard to succeed even if you put all your strength into one of those options, but my father tried both at the same time?

I don't understand at all.

'Didn't my father try to distract Kaizen?'

I thought he acted suspiciously as if planning a rebellion but secretly continued the assassination plot.
