The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 190: Cheese and wine...lots of it.

King Raff once again turned to the duke. "Your grace, what say you? | am certain that you are aware of the effect

accusations like this will have on the reputation of the crown princess if left unchecked. You also know the gravity

of the crof which prminister accuses you of. As the king, | have a duty to keep so as reluctant as | am

about this, | grant permission for the search."

His decision was exactly what the Thorin’s expected. They had known that this day would be coming for a long

tnow.

Prminister Windrider had a malicious smile on his face, greed glittered in his eyes. As he eyed the sad

looking Thorin’s he drooled over the thought of their downfall. Perhaps, when all was said and done, the king

would reward him greatly. He had always admired the Thorin estate, and with all those large coffee plantations

now, it was as good as a gold mine.

The other noble Lords that had cwith him had agreed to split the gains from the sugar factories and the port

which were owned and run by Lord Paxton Thorin.

One of them held a torch for Lady Iryne, if she was willing to divorce her husband after the Thorin’s were found

guilty, he did not mind harboring her as a mistress.

Prminister Windrider thought of his daughters, he still had three unwed__four if Emmah was included. Maybe

two could marry the corn prince. What better way was there to secure the throne than to have two sisters

married to the sking? No matter whose son sat on the throne eventually, he would have Windrider blood in

him.

All of the noble Lords salivated, they were waiting to feast on what was left of the Thorin’s.

"I have no objections." Duke Thorin said in a weary voice.

With that decision made, the king sent royal knights along with the Thorin’s, and Roland.

For the citizens of the kingdom, it was a sight to see when the procession of royal knights, led by the prime

minister Windrider rode through the streets in a hurry and headed to the Thorin estate. They were in so much of

a hurry that they crushed into a carriage transporting chicken but did not stop anyway.

It was Roland's white knights that stopped and attended to the coachman and helped him collect the birds that

had not died in the accident. Sflew away, running through the streets and causing chaos.

Chaos also visited the Thorin estate as the knights stormed it and stopped all the workers from doing there jobs.

They were gathered in the courtyard and watched with keen eyes after their bodies were searched for any

hidden gold nuggets.

Nothing annoyed Lady Iryne more than the rifling of the knights through the drawer where she kept her

undergarments.

"There is no gold in my bra." she told the young knight that looked more interested in measuring the size of the

bra than finding gold nuggets. "I am a noble lady, you all have no right to touch my things like that."

"It’s okay, we will burn them as soon as their fruitless search is over." her husband whispered.

His words did not wipe away the stinging feeling of embarrassment that Lady Iryne felt. Now, more than ever,

she wanted to set fire to the new residence of the Windrider’s. Her humiliation had to be avenged.

Meanwhile, Elowin and John took it upon themselves to "assist" the knights by leading them around the estate.

They even took them to the main location where the dark rise of Lady Blanche was shot. On meeting the actors

and actresses, the knights turned the search into a fan meeting.

They even took turns sitting on the king's throne which was ironically made with real gold. It was tall and wide,

with thorns on the back_ golden thorns.

"Well, does this gold count?" Elowin asked them.

The knights had no idea if it counted.

"I have documentation for all the gold that was used in the building of the throne. From its purchase at the bank

to the smelting and molding, the whole process was captured on a video. We have pictures if you want to see."

The pictures were on the set and produced by John quickly.

"We are searching for gold nuggets." The leader of the knights said. "Let's go."

They were led to the attic where chests were removed. There were one hundred twenty three chests and each

was opened. In all of them, bottled wine in crystal glasses was found.

From there, they traveled to the wine cellar and found more wine! one hundred more crates of it. Shelves had

been built into the walls and they also held wine! The knights had not seen so much wine outside of a place

where wine was brewed or served. Not even the kings castle had as much wine as this.

"How much does your family drink?" One of the red knights asked in a puzzled voice.

"What can | say, we love our wine." Lady Iryne chuckled.

"Especially when we are playing games." Deanne said.

"Or watching TV." Nathaniel contributed.

"I drink wine when | am picking coffee." Lord Paxton shrugged. "It is like tea but better."

PrMinister Windrider, growing increasingly frustrated sent the knights to the cellar. His source had also

mentioned a cellar.

As the knights approached the cellar, they were attacked by peacocks. The birds were not very pleased to see so

many strangers. It took a few minutes to calm the birds and knights down.

"One of these days someone is going to stew those peacocks." Roland commented.

Even Roland was surprised to see the cheese, so much of it in every size and shape.

"I will be damned, its actually wine and cheese." he guffawed.
