Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!-Chapter 577 Committing Crimes

The sound of hasty steps and murmurs filled the whole room. The whole palace was in uproar but the main lead of the show was missing.

George had taken his concubines to the solitaire palace just to pretend that he was not there when Eli died and he had no idea about it.

He did not care even if his son was blamed as long as no one lifted a finger on him. His plan was perfect.

He knew that Eli did not have knights to protect her and no one had kept a connection with her. ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢

The letter was written by Andrew only. He was sure that there was no way he would be dragged in it.

But this perfect plan has one flaw. He would not be able to know the result. Even if the plan failed, he would only know about it after two days when he would return.

But he was not worried about it that much. Though there were less chances, even if he failed, he could try again. What would he gain by knowing it earlier?

He had thought about it a lot. So, now he wanted to enjoy being in the arms of women for a change.

The three concubines were eager to serve him since it had been days when he came to them last time.

The soft music, dim lights and wine! It was a perfect ambience for losing yourself in leisurely activities.

But in the main palace of the empire, the war has begun.

"What is all this?" The chancellor was having a hard time keeping calm. He stared at the number of files in front of him with a pale face.

As the right hand of George he knew everyone what his majesty had done, and he was having a hard time in running away from the clutches of Ethan, who he thought was a fool!

"You have fabricated all this so that you can save taxation. And now you are trying to blame his majesty? You have exceeded my expectations." the man laughed viciously as he tried to chide Ethan and threw away the files.

But the army of Leo was standing behind him.

"Fabricated?" Ethan tilted his head, his face had a cold smirk that looked like the eyes of the devil, "you mean that all these reports are lies even when so much proof is attached with them?"

His one hand was in the pocket of his pants and the other was holding the file with a smirk.

"Then how about these? Are these signatures fabricated too?" he took out the last order that Geroge had sent to Hannah. He had asked her to burn the letters but she had kept all of them for her security." The letters were thrown in the room and many tried to get their hands on it.

There was another uproar that the chancellor began sweating. He cursed Andrew but then sneered again,

"Of course, it is! Do you think his majesty would write a letter to a random girl and ask her to kill the family of his brother?

And who is saying that! The one who threw his father away when he was sick and so as his sisters because he was afraid that he would not be able to get the position of a duke?'' The man laughed with thick sarcasm in his voice.

"Only a fool will believe you. Everyone knew how desperate you were for power and wealth. Now you are even aiming for a good bribery from his majesty too, who had always thought of the welfare of your family. He had even accepted sir Leonardo as the head of the knights when his identity was unknown.

He accepted lady Elizabeth as the future empress of the empire and the wife of his only son when no one knew whose blood she was! And you are blaming such a man in his absence." his tone rose as he stared at the noble man.

"Do you think they all are fools who would believe in you?" he asked with a raised brow as he sneered at Ethan and looked at the men.

They belong to the main families of the empire who hold power and wealth. Their support was necessary for the empire to run smoothly.

Ethan stared at their faces that were filled with dilemma. They were so famous yet they were fools to not believe in him but the twisting words of the chancellor.

"I have proof of everything. How could it be fabricated? If you see the details of the transactions and the amount.

The seal of his majesty and his signatures, what else is left to prove that it was all done by him?" he could not understand how could they turn blind eye to so many proof when even a blind could see the truth.

But he didn't know that politicians are blind to everything that was not in their favor.

They just scoffed and closed all the files and passed it to him as if it was trash.

"Ha! Letters could be fabricated. And signatures could be forged too. As long as it is about transactions, I am sure his majesty has given the amount of the family of Thawyne with goodwill and about the seal.. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝒆we𝒃𝘯𝒐νe𝑙.co𝚖

There is a record that it was stolen from the treasury. I must say you have a good amount of spies in the royal palace and yet you dare to stand here?`` The man looked at Ethan as if he was the criminal here.

Everyone's eyes turned to look at him with disdain. The decision was already taken. He was a fraud.

"You have committed a heinous crime of accusing his majesty and maligning the name of the royal family.

I will consider it a mistake and try to plead mercy for you from his majesty later if you leave right now or else you are going to be executed for the heinous crime of treason and so will your whole family even if they are separated for now."
