How To Hide Emperor's Child

Chapter 125

The next day, Fritz visited the Empress Palace.

"You've been through a lot of hardship, brother."

Astelle sat across from her older brother after a long time.

Fritz organized the Duke's estate and dealt with the delayed estate business.

"It's a bit too much to call it a hardship."

Fritz looked a little tired, though he said so.

"Your Majesty praised you for doing a great job."

Astelle said with a smile.

Fritz checked the other territories in the West and returned home.

There were so many nobles who lost their territory and fell after Kaizen ascended the throne that the work related to the territory was confusing.

It was a great achievement just to come back after organizing the lost lands.

Upon hearing that Fritz had returned, Kaizen also praised him in a slightly regretful tone.

He said he should have sent Fritz to West earlier.

In fact, it was a matter of course.

The western territory has long been controlled by the Duke of Reston.

The Duke's successor, Fritz, was well aware of the affairs of the territory.

Of course, Fritz was the best person to solve the problems of each territory and organize the cluttered boundaries of the territory.

'Kaizen must have known, but in the past, he couldn't have entrusted such an important position to Fritz to keep the Duke in check.'

Astelle held up the teacup with that thought in mind.

Fritz was looking at Astelld with concern.

"I've heard bad things have happened in the meantime. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. It's over now."

Fritz also seems to have heard about the Croychen family.

He sighed with a confused expression.

"You haven't been married for long......"

"That's how it is to live here."

If you want to live as an empress in the palace, you have to endure that much.

In the past, Astelle overcame small conspiracies and schemes surrounding her.

Although back then, she endured all the hardships to stay by Kaizen's side, now it's only because of Theor.

"Did you bring what I asked for?"

Astelle asked, lowering her voice. Fritz stared at her for a moment, then took out an envelope from his pocket.

These are the documents that Astelle had asked him to bring, which will be used to take down her father.

"Are you really going to force Father to step down?"

Fritz watched Astelle checking the documents and asked.

"It has already been decided."

Before Fritz left for the West, the two promised to drive away their father, the Duke of Reston.

With their father stepping down from the duke and Fritz taking over.

But Fritz said hesitantly, "Still...... wouldn't it be better to leave him alone for the time being? Until he calms down a little more."
