Chapter 167 Justinian
After the long imperial meeting that was like a tug of war, everyone felt tired and did not stay in the palace longer. They all got on their own carriages and left the palace. .
But Purficot was relatively different. She came to the palace in Princess Anne's carriage before, but now she was stayed by the Queen.
Staying overnight in the palace is an amazing honor no matter what era or country you are in.
After all, the importance of the palace is self-evident. Being able to stay in the palace for one night is not a treatment that can be obtained by simple favor.
Even though Purficott had a close relationship with Princess Anne, she only stayed at Windsor Castle. Although they were both royal territories, they were two completely different concepts from the royal palace.
If it weren’t for her current special status and the Queen’s desire to win over her, Purficott should still go to Windsor Castle tonight instead of staying at the palace.
It’s just that Purficott didn’t feel the privilege of staying in the palace, but only felt it was troublesome.
Because she was approached by a very troublesome person, which troubled her very much.
The person who came to Perficott was the first heir to the imperial throne, the eldest son of the Queen, the younger brother of Princess Anne, and the current Duke of Windsor, Justinian.
This guy blocked the door, so it was hard for Purficott to say goodbye. After all, he was also the first heir to the empire.
But as soon as this guy opened his mouth, he said that Perfectcott used a cruel weapon like thermobaric bombs to cause massacres in this war, which caused great dissatisfaction with the church, and the church wanted to carry out religious trials against her. , the implication behind the words is that only he, the first heir to the empire, can protect Purficott, and ask Purficott to be loyal to him or even be his lover, which is an unsightly and excessive request.
In response to this, Purficott even felt like he was about to laugh out loud.
It’s not that she is really disgusted by the church, but she knows clearly that the church has no intention of judging her. Even if it does, it is only an individual’s idea, not a decision made by the church.
What really made Purficott laugh was Justinian's ignorance.
Because he is just a joke in the empire.
The reason is also very simple. His title is Duke of Windsor. This title has always been only awarded to future heirs to the throne. Windsor Castle is also the residence of the Duke of Windsor, similar to the prince of the East. It exists like the East Palace.
But now Princess Anne lives in Windsor Castle. The meaning behind this is actually very clear.
Otherwise, the future first-in-line heir of the dignified empire would not be qualified to participate in the imperial meeting, and he would not even have a decent position with real power.
As for his own reputation...anyway, even if Purficott used to live in the country, he would have heard that Duke Windsor was a libertine and the ridiculous things he did.
So when faced with such a thing, Purficott naturally didn't have a good face.
But after all, he was in the palace, so she couldn't really do anything to him. After all, he was still the first heir to the empire.
If I were really injured or something happened, it would be really hard to deal with.
However, Justinian obviously did not understand the situation. He thought that Perficott was really afraid, so he was in a panic and couldn't make up his mind. Just like those aristocratic ladies who were tricked into sleeping with him, anyway, as long as he scares them and says a few sweet words, they will give up.
Therefore, Justinian not only did not restrain himself, but also looked like a man with many sperms. He also teased Purficott overtly and covertly in his words, as if he was sure to eat her.
He thought that his romantic style would definitely win the heart of Perfectcott, and make this talented woman, who was said to be quite capable, become his new lover.
Justinian didn’t think there was anything wrong with what he did. After all, he was the first heir to the empire and the one who would become the emperor in the future. The entire empire belonged to him, and he belonged to a mere down-and-out noble family. Miss, just have fun, what's the big deal?
Although he is the first heir to the empire, he was abandoned by the Queen many years ago.
It’s just that Princess Anne is a woman and the Queen has a son like him, so she cannot directly inherit the throne like the Queen herself, so she has kept him.
Of course, the so-called keeping him only means keeping him in the palace, allowing him to indulge in the dream of being the first heir to the empire.
This also led to him not even knowing who Perficott was. He just heard that Perficott was very talented. If he could win over him, it would be very helpful for him to inherit the throne in the future.
So here comes this prodigal, looking like he wants to do something to Perfectcott.
In fact, for those who are really in power in the empire, everyone knows that the heir the Queen really cultivates is Princess Anne.
It’s just that because the empire’s current inheritance law is male inheritance, the queen cannot directly abolish Justinian’s inheritance rights.
But it was obvious that Justinian himself did not have this consciousness, and Purficott also saw that the people who instigated this matter behind Justinian's back were probably the guys from the Knights Association.
After all, the Knights Association was called the Royalist Party a long time ago, and it was a die-hard supporter of the royal family almost two to three hundred years ago.
As the imperial power of the empire gradually became more and more stable, these original royalist knights gradually evolved into the organization that manages the imperial knights, forming today's Knights Association.
They are not willing to be lonely, nor are they willing to gradually fade away from the center of power, so naturally they want to cause something to happen.
However, with the disintegration of the feudal system, knights have long been destined to be eliminated by the times. If it were not for Perfectcott's Steam Knight, the Imperial Military Department would be planning to reduce the number of knights.
After all, the cost of raising knights is too high. With this money, it is better to build more cannons and train more regiments.
So the Knights Association has no allies, and the relationship between the military and them is not salty. After going back and forth, they somehow fell in love with a loser like Justinian, and they seemed to want to Shaolengzao came to help him succeed.
Perfect didn't spend much effort to figure out the whole story. After all, Justinian was just a playboy, so it wasn't too easy to get words out of him.
But Purficott no longer wanted to be entangled with this disgusting guy. She was tired enough from the day's meeting today and didn't want to deal with such a thing.
Fortunately, just when her patience was about to run out, the Queen and Princess Anne arrived in time, reprimanded and drove away Justinian.
