104 – Episode 103
A few days after visiting the auction house.
Starting early in the morning, take a carriage and head to Roman Port.
The reason we head to the port so early in the morning is because an important guest is coming today.
Previously, I pointed out Sabinelli, a vassal of Ioannes, as the main culprit in the attempted assassination of the emperor.
He made a strong demand for Savinelli, even mentioning the breaking of the alliance, but Ioanes insisted that he was not the type of person to do so, and there was an endless confrontation.
In the end, after a long period of negotiation, Ioanes and I…
An agreement was reached to dispatch Savinelli to Rome as the Grand Duchy’s ambassador.
Sabinelli played an active role as Ioannes’ intellectual within the imperial faction.
First, we decided to secure his safety as a hostage.
As I am representing Ioanes, I cannot harm him carelessly, but Savinelli shows an ability that is unusual for Ioanes. I decided to first be satisfied with separating the two.
Anyway, if I unify later, Savinelli will end up being a great slave… No, a person who will lead the empire.
I like this direction more than the killing direction.
Now that I think about it.
Did you say keep your friends close and your enemies closer?
It’s a famous line that seems like something I’ve seen in a movie before, but now I’m putting it into practice.
I soon feel the carriage stop.
[His Highness the Grand Duke. Arrived at the port.]
I answer what the soldier said.
“Has Count Savinelli arrived?”
[It is said that the ship has not arrived yet.]
Hearing those words, I get off the carriage.
Starting early in the morning, I look at the porters and carriages running busily at the port.
It’s a little cold.
I think as I feel the chilly wind blowing because it is still early spring.
Sabinelli…
I hope he is as great as the rumors say.
Although he is not a count belonging to the Kingdom of Nicaea, he is the son of the count of Lazio, who was active in the imperial faction for a long time, and only recently became a count with the help of Ioannes.
I heard that for someone in his 30s, he is wise and has great cunning and insight.
When I was looking forward to meeting Savinelli.
“Your Highness, the ship carrying Count Savinelli is entering the port.”
When I looked out at the sea, I saw a ship coming into the harbor after passing the magnificent underwater wall.
The flag of the Kingdom of Nicaea seen above the ship.
Has it finally arrived?
It was later than I thought, but there was nothing I could do about it.
I will look at the soldiers as they soon dock at the port. Soldiers begin to lay a purple carpet where the ship is docked.
Generally, high-ranking officials such as kings or grand dukes can wear red carpets.
However, the emperor has the privilege of being able to lay a purple carpet.
Well… In ancient times, purple dye was so expensive that it was called the color of the emperor, and it is still one of the colors representing the emperor.
The honor guard forms a line and waits for Baedo Savinelli to take the lead.
When a young man is seen on the boat, the honor guard leader shouts.
“We sincerely welcome Count Savinelli, representative of His Majesty Ioannes, King of Nicaea!”
And then the performance begins.
Sabinelli begins to get off the boat.
“Nice to meet you. My name is Savinelli, Count of Lazio. Thank you for this welcome. “Your Majesty the Archduke.”
I say this with a smile as I look at Savinelli, who bows his head in respect.
“Thank you for coming from such a distance.”
Sabinelli smiles at my words.
“No. To maintain good relations with the Grand Duchy. “I am honored to be here.”
After saying goodbye, I guide you to the imperial carriage.
“Thank you for saying that. “I hope we can build a good relationship.”
“I hope so too.”
And then heads to the imperial palace with Savinelli riding in the carriage.
***
It’s been a while since I enjoyed refreshments with my daughters.
“Sister, but my brother-in-law says he goes out on a secret trip once every week. “Next time we go out, can’t the three of us go out together?”
“Well? Should I ask him this time? “You three want to go out?”
Joy speaks with joy at Terra’s words.
“Really? Nana! “I don’t know how long it’s been since I last went to Romance with my sister.”
The words of the two remind me of the dark history of some time ago.
Ah… I went crazy. Just having a delusion like that…
I feel like I have no shame in seeing my son-in-law.
You suspect Joy and her son-in-law of having an affair.
To be honest, I want to hide in a mouse hole.
“Mom, how about you go with us too?”
I wave my hands at Joy’s words.
“I’m fine.”
Ah… I’m embarrassed.
What if my son-in-law thinks me strange?
At that time, I slapped him, but he said it was okay.
When I saw that, I felt like I wanted to hide in a mouse hole.
“Oh, that’s right. Sister, what about the effect of the unicorn horn?”
He beat up his polite and sincere son-in-law without considering the circumstances…
“How can you… Why would a girl who hasn’t even gotten married think such things?”
Theodora asks with an annoyed face, but their conversation does not reach my ears.
I don’t know what the effect will be… It’ll be so damn effective.
Ah… What if my son-in-law thinks I’m an old, crazy b*tch?
“Yes, but… I’m curious. “I’m not an adult yet and I’m not married… I’m a man who ate a unicorn’s horn on my first night… Wow… you like that?”
I feel so ashamed because of Joy. I don’t know what’s so exciting about Joy.
Ugh… She’s my daughter, but she’s being shy.
The moment when I try to stop myself.
I was surprised by the unexpected words.
“I’m a virgin so I’m not sure?”
“What?!”
“Te… Terra, are you sure?”
At those words, Joy and I’s expressions turn into one of astonishment.
“Sister. That’s ridiculous… You drank that unicorn’s horn?”
This is absolutely ridiculous. Having personally experienced how effective the unicorn horn is, I do not understand what Terra is saying.
How much did you suffer because of the brutally excellent effects?
Her husband’s persistent demands throughout the night made her faint…
I don’t know how many times I fainted the day my husband ate a unicorn horn…
But, remembering those nights, I don’t understand Terra’s words.
You didn’t spend your first night with Terra after eating that unicorn horn?
A bizarre novel written by Joy flashes through my mind.
By any chance… Is your son-in-law really a sodomite?
Or is he a eunuch?
Well… Otherwise…
Surely you ate the unicorn horn I gave you and left Terra alone?
“San… You haven’t spent your first night with your son-in-law yet?”
At my words, Terra nods her head slightly with her shy face.
“Then what about our… Grandchildren?”
Terra responds to my pitiful words with a slightly red face and a shy expression.
“A cow… A grandchild… Her mother hasn’t even spent one night with him yet…”
Joey says that as if it’s strange.
“Well… didn’t your brother-in-law like unicorn horns? “Why did you stay up all night so much that you had a nosebleed?”
That’s right. In fact, once my son-in-law ate a unicorn horn, he kept asking for it every morning and gave it to him.
Theodora speaks as if she is a little embarrassed by those words.
“Well… if I eat that, it’s so good that I can stay up all night working overtime…”
What? That precious thing? Use it to work overtime?
It is said that she ate the precious medicine given to her to help give birth to her grandchildren and burned it while she was working overtime.
From Noble mtl dot com
I want grandchildren and granddaughters like this? Does your son-in-law work overtime instead of doing the night shift he is told to do?
Do you use medicine to work overtime?
Is he really crazy?
– Cattails… Cattails…
Is your body shaking with anger?
What’s wrong with my daughter? Is she still not having her first night?
Others want to hold my daughter’s hand even just once?
I am furious at the thought that this is an insult to my daughter and me.
-Tak!
I hit the tea table hard with both hands and shout.
“Just leave my son-in-law alone!”
I tried to get up today, vowing to make my son-in-law marry Theodora even if it meant twisting his neck…
“Mother. Pin it. “I also have thoughts.”
I was shocked to see Theodora speaking so bleakly.
“Tonight will not go away easily.”
He smiles brightly, but speaks in a trembling voice as he looks at the smile that looks somewhat dangerous.
“That… Terra? No, right? “You’re not trying to express your tastes to your heart’s content, are you?”
Theodora grins and says at my words.
“It’s a matter of taste… Maybe her mother is right. “I can’t leave him alone because he’s my type, right?”
My daughter’s words make me feel afraid.
Stand up… Are you really going to do something like that, tie me up… Hit me… And pour candle wax on me?
“Wow, then you’re going to attack me?”
As Terra speaks, her Joy covers her mouth… Theodora shakes her head and speaks.
“No. “How could I attack the powerful Devian?”
So. Does this mean that because your son-in-law is strong, you tie him up and attack him?
It’s scary. She is my daughter, but her bizarre tastes are so scary.
But… If this works…
Yes, it’s because my son-in-law is still innocent and I don’t know much about it.
These two people need an opportunity.
Even if there is a lot of whipping on that occasion… It can’t be helped.
As the adult of the family and the imperial family, a child between the two is essential for the future.
And… I also want to meet cute Ian and Rene as soon as possible…
In the end, my son-in-law may be a little sick, but…
If he had just attacked Terra in the first place, this Sadal would not have occurred.
“Then what are you going to do?”
Theodora just smiles at Joey’s words.
“hehehe… You’re not an adult yet, are you? “Ask me later when you become an adult.”
Terra’s smile makes my heart tremble.
I can’t believe my daughter’s perverted tastes have resulted in such cute grandchildren and granddaughters.
How scary and terrible this is.
But that doesn’t mean I’m afraid that if I stay like this, I’ll never see Ian and Renee again.
I can’t believe that such cute and lovely Ian and Renee… Were conceived through violence… Ah… Honey, the world seems really scary.
“P, where is that? “I will become an adult after my birthday next year…”
Joey speaks as if upset by Terra’s words.
“You’re not an adult now, are you?”
Looking at Terra speaking leisurely, she desperately hopes that her grandchildren and her granddaughter will not inherit their mother’s tastes.
If my grandchild and her granddaughter have a taste for the bizarre like Terra…
I feel dizzy just thinking about it.
