Chapter 1217
"This..." Mrs. Ambassador glanced at Chloe, feeling a little awkward. "Young Madam, Miss Jeff is a woman of her own heart. Please don't take offense."
As the madam of the Ambassador, it was impossible for her to tell Chloe some negative news, especially something that would damage the reputation of the nobility of this country.
"I can't believe that there's something wrong with that Simon..."
Chloe smiled and put down the teacup gently. "Madam Carter, you don't have to worry about it. This is just an afternoon tea party between us women. We can chat freely without any other concerns. Besides, I've heard of this issue from Miss Tenne."
"It's good that you don't mind, Young Madam," the ambassador's wife said with a smile.
"By the way, Miss Jenne, you can go on," Chloe said. "For example, do you think Simon isn't a match for Princess Siburora of the royal family? Do you think there's a more suitable candidate for the Pothius family?"
"Mrs. Emperor, my statement also represents my personal opinion. I shouldn't have expressed my opinion about the marriage between the royal family," Miss Jeff said. "However, I think that Young Madam wants to know more about the nobles and the royal family of Ridan, right?"
"That's right."
Chloe suddenly realized.
This Miss Jeff was actually a person who was very good at chatting, because she knew what the other person wanted to hear.
For Chloe, she just wanted to inquire more about the affairs of this country. To put it bluntly, she wanted to listen to some gossip...
"Duke Ponophus has two sons. One is from the Simon that is about to get engaged to Princess, and the other is from the current Head of the Family. Duke Jeff continued, "If we were to talk about the two sons of the Po inchesluphs Family, which one of them would be more suitable for marriage, I would like to meet my eldest son. Even though I've heard that he's been in good health for all these years, is it not a big deal when it comes to love? Other than that, whether it's in terms of moral standing, temperament, or ability to manage the family, it's not something that can be neglected."
"Oh? It seems that Miss Jeff's evaluation of Elsa is very high?" Chloe inquired about Aman's friend.
"Mrs. Emperor, Alchem is a famous and handsome man." She laughed. "Every woman from a noble family has a very high opinion of him."
"Then, why isn't it Elsa who is engaged to Princess Sibula?" Chloe asked.
"Mrs. Emperor, there are things you don't know." The wife of the ambassador said, "According to the rules of succession of the throne from Ruidan, if Princess were to succeed the throne, her husband would have to move into the palace and become a member of the royal family. He would then hand over all of his authority. Because of the king's husband or wife, he could not have any authority. If he were to marry Princess, he would have to give up his authority in the family."
"Is that so?" Chloe's heart skipped a beat. "Isn't that what that guy wants from Simon? | heard that he's also trying to usurp the power of the family's inheritance."
The ambassador's wife was stunned for a moment before she broke into a smile. "Oh, looks like Young Madam news is pretty good."
"Yes, Mrs. Emperor, you're right. It turned out that Simon didn't agree to get engaged to Princess Sibula." Miss Can Review, who came from the Rudan's School, continued to say, "However, their brother, Duke Pothphus, preferred Woodrams more than Woodrams. Naturally, he wanted to keep their eldest son inherits the family, so he ordered Simon to have an arranged marriage with the royal family. Even if Simon disapproved, he wouldn't be able to defy his father's orders."
Chloe frowned slightly.
"If that's true, what's the purpose of Simon's getting engaged to Princess Sibula and contending for the power of the Pochiphus family?"
If he stole it, then he would have to hand over his family's power after the marriage alliance with the royal family!
Unless...
Simon would think of a way to get rid of him and force the royal family and the Pochiphus family to change the rules. He would continue to inherit the Pochiphus family after he formed a marriage alliance with Princess Sibula!
Thinking of this, Chloe suddenly felt that the noble level of Randan was very deep. She was afraid that it would not be as simple as that political disorder in Xavier.
"That's just one of the reasons," Miss Jenne continued, "But before the engagement between Princess and Simon came out, I heard another rumor, although I'm not sure whether it's true."
"Let's chat and do whatever you want." Chloe took another sip of tea and let her go on.
"Miss Tenne..." The emissary's wife wanted to stop her, but she frowned. "Isn't it inappropriate to talk to Young Madame about this?" Was it appropriate to engage in some gossip with the guests?
"Rest assured, Mrs. Carter. You can tell that Mrs. Emperor is a very easy-going person," Miss Jeff said. "Furthermore, she's the best candidate for the information regarding the state's upper echelons."
"Miss Jeff is right." Chloe thought to herself that this woman was indeed very good at chatting. "In the future, if I have the chance, I'll tell you about my relationship with Aman, because I feel that having a chat with Miss Jeff will be very pleasant."
There were two purposes behind Chlpe's words.
The first thing was to ask Tenne to continue.
Secondly, in return for her and Aman's story, she asked Tenne to tell her everything related to the noble families of this country because for a writer, reality was something that was hard to come by.
"Oh, that's because I have to thank you, Young Madam." Miss Jeff felt a little flattered. She could tell that Young Madame was not a woman who loved to reveal private questions. She said agitatedly, "If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me As long as they won't harm our motherland, I can answer any questions you ask."
Chloe smiled, thinking that the story between her and Aman was indeed very attractive. After all, there were many people who wanted to know Aman's love story, including her, Princess Xavier.
"Miss Tenne is joking. This is just an afternoon tea party between us women. How could it involve a big problem like the country?" Chloe crossed her legs and said softly in a graceful manner, "Let's just have a casual chat. Go on with the previous topic..."
"Oh, I just brought up the matter about Princess Sibula and Simon's engagement." She pressed her chin on her hand, her face under the black-framed glasses as she recalled something. "I heard that Princess Sibula was in love Zen , but since Zen couldn't marry her and marry her, she decided to give up the throne and marry the Poshaw family... It's just that two months ago, Princess Sibula fell off her horse and recovered from her injuries for a period of time. After that, her temperament changed drastically, and she never mentioned marrying him again. Everyone in the royal family felt that Princess Sibula finally woke up and accepted the arrangements of the Queen through marriage."
Chloe was stunned.
Was there such a thing?
All of a sudden, Chloe's heart sank. If she had not heard it by herself, it would have been hard for others to imagine that Princess Sibiea of the royal family had so much to do with Guelz of the Pochius family.
It sounded as if their relationship was intertwined with that of a royal authority!
"It's not surprising." Chloe sighed. "It's hard to make your own decision about the love of the royal family."
She had already gotten married before she returned to Xavier. Otherwise, her father and the royal family of Xavier would definitely have allowed her to marry into the Nangong clan...
"Yes, Princess Sibie may have finally heard Her Majesty's advice and given up on her," Miss Jeff said. "So even though I don't think that Simon is suitable for marriage, I'm impressed with Princess Sibie if she made a sacrifice for the royal family in order to save the nation."
As he said that, he picked up the teacup and gave it a toast.
"So," Chloe said, following her own train of thoucht, "Since Princess Sibie has lost her pursuit of love, is she going to fight for the throne? If she doesn't get the throne, she will get the throne?"
"As for this, I don't know."
"Young Madam." The emissary's wife added another cup of tea to Chloe.
"According to the method of inheritance of the throne from Ruidan, the one who should inherit the throne will be Princess Sibie, because she is the eldest daughter of the female lead."
"Oh, that's what I wanted to ask." Chloe said, "According to the inheritance method of this country, Prince Cororhan doesn't have the right to inherit the throne, does he? Why..."
"Young Madame, what do you think the people of the Hiri Kingdom are after your throne, Prince ?" Tenne asked. "In principle, your Royal Father has a prince as well."
When Chloe heard her use Xavier as an analogy, she smiled and said, "You're saying that Prince is also very popular in this country?"
"I don't dare to say that l'in popular with the whole country. Prince used to be an air force, and then he entered the management system. Now he's also in charge of the imperial palace's army, "Kenne said. "In terms of political affairs, he has some insights and analysis. Although he's not as talented as Prince from Xavier, who is good at military affairs and political affairs, compared to Princess, the throne will obviously be more suitable for Prince Cortand to inherit."
Chloe understood. It was estimated that there was a disagreement among factions of the royal family. Half of them supported Princess, who should have inherited the throne, while the other half supported Prince Coror.
"It seems that Miss Jenne knows a lot about the royal family and the nobles."
"I'm a writer, so I'm very sensitive to this situation." She said, "After all, the inspiration of novels comes from reality."
"You're right."
Chloe picked up the cup of tea and gave her a polite toast.
Chloe felt that she had been inquiring about the history of the Pochphs Family and the royal family, which would mislead others' impression of her, Young Madam. She then changed the topic and asked this writer, "Miss is a writer and comes from a famous family called Ruidan. Just now, the ambassador's wife said that she knew Miss in literary. Is Miss member of the school of pennibal?"
"Oh, no." She laughed. "In my family, only I'm engaged in the work of literature."
"Mrs. Emperor, I'm also interested in the European poetry literature of Rudan. After all, as the wife of the country's Mr. Rudan, I want to understand the culture of this country, so I occasionally met Miss Tenne."
