After that, we have talked with Gab-san and others about many things.
Oniisama has sent Giselle-chan and me to the dormitory.
「…… Letty」
「Let’s study」
Eeh~! Why that all of the sudden~! Is what I thought, but.
Yes, as a matter of fact, I don’t understand a thing.
「Shall we first review about our country?」
「Then, do you know about last year’s wheat harvest?」
「This raised the hurdle a bit」
It’s not just a bit, right? Swallowing these words, our country comes first.
Fertile grounds with many crops. It’s a place where textile goods are developing and place with silver and gold mines.
If it’s too severe, the Royal Family takes over. Incidentally, there’s a secret inspection going around.
Jewelry and high-quality clothes also seem to be popular in the foreign countries.
Because the Royal Families belong to this religion, the surroundings follow.
Four big Duke Houses. Giselle-chan’s and Bel’s Houses are one of them. Our House is also one of them.
Because there are aristocratic factions, it’s troublesome…… Giselle-chan thinks it’s troublesome too.
Not ours, but the one which conducts diplomacy.
Leads us to the talk about Fantail.
「The House conducting the diplomacy is the Jajal House, but that Julia-san’s House is part of the Jajal faction」
I don’t hear good stories about Jajal House often. There’s more bad than good, Giselle-chan says.
Giselle-chan who lives in the capital knows a lot about this.
「Do they work behind the scenes?」
「Crushed? Why?」
「They were spreading a dangerous medicine. That House wanted to test it out on the related House or something. Those people went missing, it’s said that they are under the protection of the Royal Family」
It was a very respectable thought, Giselle-chan says honestly.
「………… Giselle-chan. That, do you know where the house which suffered the damage is?」
「Yes, in the capital……」
I ask about detailed location. I also ask when did it happen.
Hearing dangerous medicine, it reminds me of narcotic drugs. I don’t know which it is, but I understand that it’s dangerous.
Oniisama sent us there while knowing about this, right?
I don’t know whether he did something about it himself, though!
Oniisama, what have you done? No, it’s not a bad thing, though.
But, isn’t this dangerous?
「Wha!?」
「Eh, no, un. No, a bit un. A, ah, something that is not supposed to connect has connected」
I suddenly recalled Oniisama’s and His Highness’ plot.
Something like, villain extermination.
Haa! Haa!! It absolutely looks similar!!
「Letty?」
「…… Giselle-chan, I will make sure not to get you involved!!」
I will show you that I can protect you from Oniisama’s grasp!!
When I calm down, Giselle-chan continues with the story, but it splendidly passes through.
Oh no, this passing through may become a habit.
「Fantail is a neighboring country. According to the map, there’s one country between us」
「That’s right. Because there’s a sea near that country, we are getting salt from them」
「Un, un」
A coastal country.
However, it’s strong. Because salt is something absolutely necessary.
There are many more marine products, but this is the number one.
「Because Fantail is an Empire, It’s Emperor, Imperial Prince, and Imperial Princess」
Right now, Gab-san’s Oniisan has the right of the first imperial successor, while Gab-san is the second imperial successor.
However, because of this imperial succession problem, his life is being targeted.
「The Emperor is alive at the present time, so everything is all right, but when he passes away, Gab-san’s Oniisama will become the Emperor」
「Yes. And if the Emperor doesn’t have a child in the first five years of his rule, his position as the first successor will be locked」
When I ask about ‘locked.’
However, in the situation where there’s no child.
If a child is born in the five years, it will become the first successor. Gab-san would get cut off.
For Giselle-chan to know so much about a foreign country…… sugoi.
「I think that the succession of the Fantail Kingdom is a bit special, but…… if that gentleman is hiding here, it must be about the succession」
Although the Emperor is still alive, he could die at any moment! That’s the story.
I naturally don’t know accurately, but I have to be cautious when visiting Gab-san.
「I understand that Gab-san is in a delicate-ish position」
「Un, Giselle-chan, thank you!」
You are seriously reliable, my number one friend.
