Peace Offering To The Cursed Prince

"Your highness we are here,"

The three people who looked like they were about to eat each other up stopped to look towards the direction of the door.

"Ahh! Your highness ghost," Rosa shouted at the top of her voice. She would have run away shouting like a madwoman if Grater had not stopped her on time.

"What is it, can you not see the ghost?" Rosa could not understand why Grater and everyone else seem calm.

"There is no ghost?" Ellen replied calmly.

"there is, can you not see him," Rosa was hiding behind Grater.

"do you mean Julia?" Ellen turned to look at Rosa.

Hearing the question Rosa took a deep breath, it seems she has misunderstood the situation.

Julie did not stand dare anymore, "I will see you in a month," he immediately walked past the two and return to the hall. He knew the king wanted to get rid of him. 

He was not sure how much of the conversation Ellen heard.

"your highness," Catherine and Brighton bowed.

"Do you really want to get rid of him?" Ellen asked, she knew how much lady Catherine liked Julia so it come as a bit of surprise that she was willing to let go.

"yes, he has lied to me too many times. Moreover, I have to think of my family. I can not act selfishly," Lady Catherine said.

Her father had betrayed the king's father to raise to the power that they enjoyed now. It was already good that the king did not want to settle the old offense, how could she dare take in an enemy.

" Then I will help you, but of course, you will do something in return," Ellen smiled. The plan she made for Vera will work smoother if she had more capable hands.

"What do you want?" Lady Catherine asked.

"I want to get rid of a rat, to do that permanently I need to find it a new home," Ellen smiled.

"Then where do you need my help?" Lady Catherine asked.

"finding a new home, say, do you know any man of marriageable age?" Ellen asked.

"There are a few that I am familiar with," Lady Catherine replied.

"good, I do not want him to have outstanding quality, as long as he has a family name, that will do," Ellen smiled.

She knew that even If she is the Queen lady Catherine had more connections than she did. So having her help carry out this plan will make it more successful.

" The Second son of the Brain family, he is obedience but his ability is average at the most," Lady Catherine gave a name.

Hmm, the Brain family is too good, do you know a smaller family? " Ellen asked.

"The head of the sliow family just got married to his mistress, since none of his wives gave birth to a girl. His son used to be my friend. To bring him back home he had to marry his mother.

Although that my friend is now a noble, he is looked down upon," Brighton explained.

" This means your friend will find it difficult to get a wife from a family with equal social standing? " Ellen asked.

"yes, Your highness. His father has been tr to get him engaged but it has been difficult. Most families just shy away. While others told him, his son is not worth," Brighton replied.

Ellen was excited when she heard this answer. "Will this your friend be willing to do something a little indecent to marry a girl from a good family. After all, he will be at a better standing if he marries a woman from good social standing," Ellen said.

"well, My friend is not hard-working, his ability can not even be called average. Most importantly he always visits the inn to look for new beauties. This further made it difficult to get a noble lady that will want to marry him," Brighton replied.

"Then let me trouble you to call your friend over, it happened that the rat I want to get rid of has this quality his father wants," Ellen had a beautiful smile on her face as she spoke.

Lady Catherine began to feel sorry for the person who had irritated Ellen. She knew that Ellen is not the type to strick first. But when she decides to rave revenge she does not leave a way out.

" Alright, I will go look for him, your highness," Brighton bowed and walked away with Lady Catherine.

This was a good opportunity for his friend and he will benefit from it as well.

"Grater, Rose, I want you to look for the maid earlier. When you see her, you should deliberately increase your voice as you speak," Ellen said.

"your highness, which message do you want us to pass across?" Grater asked. She could already guess what Ellen was planning.

Ellen smirk and whispered something to them. Soon the two of them nodded their head and walked away to carry out the task.

A few moments later Brighton arrived with his friend.

" Your highness," they both bowed.

Ellen nodded her head. "the both of you realize that I am helping you and whatever we discuss can not be respected after now?" Ellen said.

"of course your highness, I will not dare go against you," Brighton was the first to make the promise.

"who is your friend?" Ellen asked.

"He is Brad, I already told you of his situation," Brighton reply.

"Brad, can you do some a little unethical to get yourself married to a wife from a good background?" Ellen asked.

"your highness, as long as the crime will not cause me to lose my life, I am willing," Brad answered honestly.

Recently, his mother has been nagging him, especially since the young wife of his father got pregnant. If that young wife managed to give birth to a boy, then their position in the family will be at disadvantage. As long as he manages to get a wife with a good background then their problems will be solved.

"I will not ask you to do anything big, I will only give you a chance. It's up to you to be bold enough to get a wife or not," Ellen said.

"I understand," Brad nods.

" Good, remember if anything goes wrong you can not mention me," Ellen said.

" I understand your highness, " Brad bowed once more.
