Time Travelling: My Love from the Royal Family

After the imperial court session got over, Matthew stopped Felix and offered to leave the palace together. This was something rare.

Felix felt flattered and overwhelmed by this unexpected offer. It was known to everyone that Matthew was somebody who rarely walked with others. To be more precise, he never paid much attention to anyone. But now, he himself proposed to leave with Felix. Although Felix felt quite unbelievable hearing Matthew's offer, his gut feeling was that Matthew was up to no good.

"Uncle Matthew, do you have something to tell me?" Felix asked calmly. Despite the fact that Matthew was his uncle, deep inside, his feelings for Matthew was complicated. He would end up being very happy if Matthew's offer were to team up with him or help him. Matthew had his own army and what Felix wanted the most was an additional military power. If Matthew really supported him, then Felix could really secure his throne.

"Yes. Has your inspection trip to the south been decided? When will you set off?" Matthew asked. The look on his face was cold, and he sounded quite businesslike. Nob

taste of the tea lingered around his tongue. After swirling it in his mouth for a while, he swallowed it. "Fantastic tea. I didn't know that you are so good at making tea."

"Let's cut the crap. We have something to tell you, and that's why we invited you here today," Matthew interrupted and went straight to what it mattered. Although he was happy to hear his wife being praised, he felt quite sullen when a man praised her like that. Felix's words were not truly in appreciation to her but he was just being polite.

"Please go ahead, Uncle Matthew," Felix responded at once.

"I got information that Hoffman is planning for a strike at you halfway during your inspection," Matthew told him.

It seemed that Felix had already known about this news. He was not at all surprised after hearing Matthew, and he said, "Since Hoffman had stayed in the south domain all the time, he is not fully aware of the situation in the imperial capital. There is just one way to secure the support of the officials as fast as possible—either killing me or replacing the crown prince with somebody else."
