The Doomed And Blessed, 13th Young Miss Chapter 87

CHAPTER 87

 

Matthew had told the truth, even though now he couldn’t use this potion as evidence, having the Emperor know, was still just as good.

The Crowned Prince had chosen a very good time to want to use this potion, three years ago. The Crowned Prince had been far away, leaving a few of his physicians knowing about it, that were there to get rid of the disease before it would have got out of hand.

Having the perfect alibi, because of his month in seclusion, that he does once a year to cultivate, he would have come back as the new Emperor of Green Haven!

Matthew had destroyed this plan of his, and kept the evidence in good condition…Sadly, he was unable to take this evidence easily and the Crowned Prince had found out then, who had stopped his plans. Before then, they were behind curtains, but after that incident, the Crowned Prince willingly got a.s.sa.s.sins to wait in corners, to kill this thorn!

Having been so close to becoming the Emperor, only to lose it, because of the person that he hated the most!

 

As they waited for Band Two to return, Matthew gave the Emperor more information on why he was unable to bring what he had to become known straight away. The Emperor was unhappy to wait, as criminals were loose and still did what they wanted!

But, as he understood the complexity of it, he still gave Matthew his faith and stated that he was feeling better already, that he had come back.

Matthew had told the Emperor that if one evidence and one witness was there for a crime, the Crowned Prince may deem it easily false, and secretly kill the witness and destroying the evidence.

Matthew’s plan, was to bring everything up in one go. There were at least several circ.u.mstances that Matthew had evidence and witnesses for, and if they all came up at the same time…Was the Crowned Prince going to kill and destroy it all? And wouldn’t doing that just state he was absolutely guilty?

With the Crowned Prince having so many people behind him, Matthew had to make sure that the Crowned Prince had no way out!

Even taking in the idea that the Crowned Prince’s followers may want to try something, Matthew also has one or two things on them as well…

 

When Band Two returned, the process of administering the ‘sickness’ had already been done and the Emperor nodded, breathing out in relief.

Matthew bowed and looked back at the Emperor, “Your Majesty, I will return in approximately five days to report to you. This subject will now take his leave.”

Within moments, Matthew jumped out and headed into another direction.

The Emperor then went straight towards his desk and promptly wrote his decree.

Unable to wait, he called someone in, before he had even finished writing it and made them wait…

 

With many people most likely on the lookout for him, Matthew went to a quiet but large establishment…That was owned by a General, a very sick General.

Matthew had been uneasy if this General would survive this long, but there he was, laying on the bed.

“You…”

Matthew sat on chair, beside the bed, “Mmm, I’ve returned.”

“Not…”

Matthew looked at his friend and sighed, “I have not found anybody to help you. I know why the physicians in the capital will not help…They are the Crowned Prince’s people.”

“Worry…”

Shutting his eyes for a short time, Matthew looked back at the General, “I will look harder. You know my life would be boring without you in it!”

“Idiot!...” The General started to cough, very loudly.

Before Matthew could be seen, he jumped out of the opened window area, before someone ran in and tried to help the General.

 

Looking through the window, Matthew really couldn’t believe his good friend, Shaun, was still alive. The last time they had met, the General was very fit and healthy looking…

He had a very straight forward personality that Matthew liked. He was very proud of his strength, which may be the reason why he was a General at the age of 28. Even though there were years between them, they were closer than that of brothers, and they even had married two women who were close friends as well. Having lost one of their people, who had been Isabella, they no longer had dinners together or outings. Instead, Matthew only saw the General, but hardly his wife, making everything unbalanced…
