"Did anyone of you hear anything?" Lawrend asked and looked at each of them.
Immediately, they shook their heads. They were afraid of death, and it wasn't a bad idea for the kingdom to become an empire. At that time, they would be appointed to even higher positions.
No one sympathized with the Minister of Justice. His thinking was backward and not looking at the bright future ahead of them under Lawrend's rule.
"Your Highness, I wasn't thinking of committing treason!" the Minister of Justice shouted.
"Did I say you committed treason?" Lawrend asked calmly.
"I…"
The Minister of Justice's face fell, and he looked at Lawrend aghast.
"All of you may leave except for Mr. Verkoli," Lawrend said.
The Minister of Justice kept silent as he left the room. No one knows what he was thinking.
"Aezel, go before he reveals my plan to the envoys," Lawrend ordered.
"Fufufufu. My pleasure, Master," Aezel responded and left the room.
