Reborn princess: I will change my ill-fate - 147 chapter 147. A plan
What is he? A human. No matter how much experience he gained throughout his life, it is impossible for him to know what is going on in others mind. So he could only probe into the matter further and take guesses about what the other party is thinking.
Alexander chuckled out, finding it impressive, ” Looks like my little girl has already grown up. My eyes must have gone blind to not notice the change before. So tell me, how should I receive you now? As am emperor, or as a family member? ” He posed her the question, clearly knew that, she just didn’t come here to have any discussion, but more like a deal.
Now it indeed piqued his interest and curious to know what us her purpose of changing the decision. He may didn’t point it out, but for sure, he could say that, Aeinshia has been behaving weird from past few days and being little ambiguous. Looking into her behavior, he began to doubt, whether allowing her to involve in court matters is good or not.
However, that’s an already taken decision and there is no use in regretting over it now. Atmost, he could prevent any mishaps from happening in future and take care of her.
Aeinshia smiled back, probably she thought it is unnecessary to answer or thought Alexander could figure it by his own, she didn’t reply to his previous question, instead she continued, ” So uncle, tell me, don’t you want my brother to comeback with some useful information without alerting our enemies? Of course, we don’t know yet who is plotting against the empire and who are our men, so you want to make it as silent as possible right? ” She asked him, eagerly waiting for his response.
Alexander simply nodded. If not, then why would he take such a in his ass to send Felix secretly without knowing a third eye? He still didn’t find an proper solution to hide Felix whereabouts. He could hide it for one or two days, and soon people would become wary about the missing presence of future heir of Rutz household. So before someone takes the step to meddle, he need to find a proper lie to cover up his nephews whereabouts.
” Uncle, based on the situation, I could tell people are still not wary about my brother leaving palace. So, I am willing to provide an opportunity to you, ” She spoke her stance confidently, while anticipating for her uncle’s response. She was sure, Alexander will definitely not decline it. But what she should say if he asked into it? Would he only leave her off the hook once she told the whole truth? Would he believe if she told? What she got to do then?
” It is good that you are willing to be a supportive hand in this mission. But may I ask what is your plan dear? ” He asked her without any hesitation. He need to be straight forward sometimes and it is that time now. He can’t go around beating around the bush like Aeinshia.
Aeinshia shifted into a more comfortable position in her chair, knowing that she is succeeded in her half mission to make Alexander listen into her words. The result or how he will react to this plan isn’t required. Because, even if he declined her this once, she would definitely make her arrangements to carry on her plan.
” Well, uncle it’s simple. Spread the news that both my brother and me are going to visit the temple to pray for my deceased mother, ” She spoke her words slowly, worrying he might miss few words.
Alexander understandingly nodded his head. It is indeed a good plan, but it is a plan containing risk. It is a plan threatening his niece life. The empire is not filtered yet. Riot in East and border clashes in West. No one still knows, how well the enemies already dispersed around the empire. The capital gates are closed, not allowing in person out and our person in. There us barely any security left here in the capital to protect his all citizens.
At such conditions, it is best for an imperial family member to not set foot outside the palace, reducing the burden. But, here his niece, planning to enter the fox den. He knew, she isn’t going out to slack off or to time pass, and got some purpose. In fact, he understood, she is clearly throwing herself as the bait to lure the enemies. And on top of everything, she wants to tip off to the enemy herself with the power of an emperor.
No one knows what might be waiting for her if she went. On top of that, the Rutz family may be powerful, but as the saying goes, the more powerful one become, the more enemies they gather around. So many might think it as an golden opportunity to avenge and attack the princess on her way. This is a big decision to take at the last.
So how could he compromise himself and send her into a dangerous situation himself, knowing well the later consequences? Yeah, he do need to take best interests of empire into calculation and think about the empire, but it is not at the cost of his niece life. No matter how selflessly he worked for the prosperity of the empire, he can’t throw his blood related family member into the pit like this.
Alexander became serious listening to her self harm plan. How could he be clam after knowing what is running in her head?
” You want me to tip off the enemies? More precisely officials? ” He framed his question correctly and most precisely.
Aeinshia couldn’t help but smile and nod her head lightly at his question. How can she respond, when her uncle framed the question like this? She only gave an hint, but her uncle made sure to come all the way down to her thoughts and expected what is she planning.
That’s when she understood, that she underestimated this wise man beside her.
With her force, even if she began spreading rumours, it might take almost a day to travel and reach all around the capital. But, that won’t be the case if the emperor himself spread them. In no time, her enemy would get the wisp of them.
Infact, she want to know, who is interested to get the ticket to hell this early, messing with her family.
Rutz household is she second next to imperial family, when came to power, money and status. So who is daring to jiggle their tails in front of the Rutz household. It definitely can’t be the people from court. Then it must be someone from outside. What gain would they get by targeting her? It’s not like she ever got any enemies? Then why?
Whatever the reson might be, she need to first know whether their target is solely her or her whole family. So if she began to spread rumours about the Rutz household that young master, the possible next heir is also tagging along the trip, and even after knowing that, if the attack took place, then it shows that their main target isn’t she, but the whole Rutz household.
If that’s the case, then she was afraid what the enemy might plan for next attack. If that’s how it is, and if everything went like how the enemy planned, then what the enemy want is not solely the extinct of the Rutz household, but to bare the pain, that their daughter will carry her whole life. They want to make their lives miserable, agony and then kill them. Aeinshia flinched in fear, at the thought of how scary is her masked enemy.
At least by risking, she would get to know this information. And spending rumours is because, she understood the enemy isn’t anyone around. her. So, it only says that, the enemy is taking some insider help. Knowing their courage, it is only acceptable that this court men could only take part or give hand into other forces and can’t risk or bet everything on attacking a powerful household.
Cause, even if they were a part in the whole plan, they could directly ditch the third party and if in case, the third party got caught, then they can silence them and stay hidden behind the curtains. However, that won’t be the case if the other party is some strong force.
So by hoping to face the same situation, she is expecting to get free clues about the enemy ans about the moles around her. Her getting drugged only suggest that either the involved officials or the masked enemy doing.
” Aeinshia, do you want to jump into a suicidal situation? Can you depict the consequences of your actions, ” For the first time ever, Alexander shouted at her in anger, his chest heaving high, fuming in anger.
