She told me to get Princess Agatha to pledge allegiance to the kingdom, doing that before the goddess isn't like the normal one, it puts her under a spell that shifts her entire being into serving Tersian alone, even if all she did was an act, her pledge changes that and it becomes true loyalty.
The Prince returned before this process, and he was aware of what he had done, he didn't know how to face her which was why he was absent at the feast last night, but on hearing that we plan to make Agatha pledge allegiance to the kingdom, he requested that we make her pledge to be married to him as well.
That was to secure her for himself before he meets her again and tries to fix things with her, and you know how that turned out. So you see, Sage, I am not a wicked or greedy King, just an old man trying to save his favorite child.
