After her duties for the day were over, Adeline returned back to her quarter feeling content with what she had accomplished today. Edwin was kept under house arrest and a lot of his illegal properties were brought back to the King's Court. He had collected so many gold coins that it took two carriages just to bring those coins to the Court.
With that much money, Edwin would have been able to buy out a few Generals. There were in total 8 Generals under the King's command. And each General commanded a hundred thousand soldiers. If he had even bought 2 Generals with that black money, then he would have been able to lead a coup and could have taken over the throne a long time ago.
Adeline was surprised that he had stayed quiet even with that much money that he had leeched from the villagers. But she was thankful that he did nothing of that sort.
