Chapter 1423
After Frank came out of the Queen's office, Ben, the steward of Prince Charlie, was waiting outside.
Frank looked at him and asked, "Is there anything I can do for you, Ben? If you have other things to do, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you anymore. But you can report to His Majesty yourself."
Ben looked at Frank calm face. "I heard that you are going to be demoted?"
"That's all."
"..." Ben was shocked at once, but he slowly sighed and bowed to him. "Thank you, Mr. Frank. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid His Majesty wouldn't have sent people to investigate the prince's case."
"I just did what I thought was right," Frank said. "And you are right. I'm no longer the adviser of the Cabinet. Now that Prince Charlie is no longer here, do you want to stay in the palace or do you want to do something else, Ben?"
Ben let out a sigh, staring at the lavishly built imperial palace. "In the past, my goal was to assist the prince in his ascension to the throne, and so I was prepared to follow him for the rest of my life. But now, I will also send him to the end of the funeral. I will accompany the prince until the end."
"Is that so?"
Those emotionless words. After Frank finished speaking, he walked past Ben.
He went down the steps and waited outside the Queen's office door. When he got on the car, all the guards bowed to the respected Director.
As soon as Frank's car left, Finch ran over.
"What, I heard that His Majesty is very angry, Mr. Frank is going to be..."
"He said he's no longer the advisor of the Flashknife Pavilion," Ben said.
"What is it?"
"He might have really been transferred to another position."
"..." Frank was too shocked to speak. After a long while, he said, "Is His Majesty really so ruthless? Mr. Frank is simply one of her right-hand men. For so many years, if it weren't for Mr. Frank, how could His Majesty manage the affairs so well?"
Ben sighed. "Because this time Mr. Jindan touched His Majesty's bottom line. His Majesty doesn't want to investigate the prince's case, but Mr. Jindan disobeyed her when she returned to the king's island. What's more, Lara was also involved in this case."
Finch did not know what to do.
He thought about how he had ordered his younger cousin, Anderson, to investigate the palace and to go to Prince Charlie's library...wasn't that wrong? Because he had secretly sent Anderson to the palace, he had been able to catch Lara.
This made the queen even angrier, so that she changed her position of Frank?
"I heard." Ben swept the man with his eyes towards the Imperial Palace's supervisor. "Yesterday, you secretly agreed to let that Patterson scout the prince's library?"
"..." Finch swallowed. "I just thought his analysis made sense, so I wanted him to give it a try and see if he could really catch the returning Lara in the palace. It's just as expected."
"Oh?" Ben chimed in. He wondered if this Finch had anything to do with the police officer.
Because he was just a supervisor of the Imperial Palace, it was not an easy thing for him to win the support of the people.
Unless it had something to do with him.
"I heard that it was you, Butler Ben, who spent more than a week checking the monitoring of the palace day and night to find something wrong with that night's surveillance?" In order to change the topic, She asked Ben.
Ben recalled what words just now and sighed. "I just did what I thought I was right. I'm the prince's personal butler. After the prince's murder, no matter if others don't pay attention to his death, I'll definitely investigate it."
Looking at the increasingly determined look in his eyes, Finch said, "The death of Butler Ben, Prince Charlie, has been found out. It was Lara who colluded with Nangong Yen and tried to assassinate him. Will you still stay in the Imperial Palace after Prince Charlie's funeral?"
"Do I have a reason why I remained in the imperial palace?" Ben laughed clearly.
"Bucky Ben is too modest. I'm now in charge of all the guards in the palace. You and I know very well about those guards."
He said, "After all, the person who was in charge of the guards in the palace in the past was Prince Charlie. I think Prince Charlie often let you manage the guards on behalf of him."
"I won't neglect anything that the prince has ordered me to do."
"So, you can continue to stay in the palace in the future," Finch said, "since the prince is gone, the higher-ups will also arrange other jobs for you."
Ben said, "Aren't you afraid that I'll stay and steal your bowl?"
"You mean I'm the supervisor of the Imperial Palace?" Finch said with a smile, "Some positions are occupied by capable people. If the higher-ups think that you will be more suitable than me, I'd like to compete with you."
Unexpectedly, Ben didn't care. "Forget it. I'm not interested in the so-called Imperial Palace. I just want to serve the prince. As for whether I'll stay in the palace in the future..." He looked at the distant sky with a complicated gaze. "Let's wait until the end of the prince's funeral. Mr. Frank is loyal to the royal family and the queen. If he is expelled from the Imperial Palace in the future, I don't think it's necessary for me to stay here."
"It's unlikely that Mr. Frank will be expelled from the palace, at least not now." Finch underscore said, "Now we haven't received the notice that Mr. Frank will leave office immediately. If His Majesty doesn't say that he'll leave immediately, according to the rules of the palace resignation, he'll serve until the end of this month at least."
After thinking for a moment, she said, "However, I'm so angry with His Majesty that Mr. Frank won't be appointed for a month. He may be sent to do some other unimportant work."
"This is even more unbearable than a resignation. The Sensitivity of the Cabinet who was only under the queen's command should be humiliated!" Ben pursed his lips. In the morning, at the queen's party.
The autumn sun shone on the queen's throne like gold and the crown on the queen's head. The marble tea table with white obsidian was placed in the royal garden in a square shape.
The queen sat in the upper seat with a maid and her accompanying officer standing behind her. Princess Sara on her left and several members of the royal family on her left.
Aman and Chloe, as well as the members of the Pochi Fuss Family, sat opposite the Queen.
In addition, there were two representative of the police.
The police general director of headquarters, the police scout who had found the assassination case of Prince Charlie, and the police spy who had captured Lara.
"I've already read the report regarding yesterday's events." The queen's voice rang out from the seat of honor. "First of all, the police officer, Anderson, has discovered the assassination case of Charlie, and also captured the Prince of Assassination, Lara. He should be rewarded. Director Finch, I have instructed that this police scout, Anderson, has been promoted to three rankers."
"Your Imperial Majesty is wise." Director Finch said.
"Thank you, your Majesty." Officer Patterson said.
Both of them stood up to salute.
"Everybody, look, this is my police. They deserve their reputation, right?" The queen asked the others with a smile. "On the day when I returned to King's Island, the police had solved the prince's case."
