I Fell for the Temptation of the Evil Crown Prince - Chapter 204
“Let me tell you, it would not be good for the church if the royal family was publicized.”
“If it is known that she is the shield of God, it will help the dignity of the royal family, it will not be our…….”
“Then you’ll cling to us and beg to release curses?”
Cecil snorted and said.
No explanation will work for the desperate. Focusing only on the power to fight off curses, they might rush in.
In addition, Rowena had to avoid being known about this fact because she had a soft spot for the weak.
“On the pretext of raising the name of the denomination…… I hope there is no one there who is bold enough to sell the name of the imperial family.”
The high priest, who was determined to publicize this fact, turned his eyes away from the stinging face.
The current emperor was a person who saved the face of the temple, but the crown prince was able to come out as mean as possible.
“Of course, there will be no such thing. Your Highness won’t have to worry.”
“……I’ll trust you.”
Cecil, who said so with a face of no trust, finally got to the point. After examining Rowena’s energy, the High Priest, who was endlessly excited, looked serious at Cecil’s words.

The marquis hasn’t returned home for days. The Marquis of Hassler’s possessions, which were confiscated, had long since left the capital.
Marquis Wenson’s carriage, which was hanging around in front of an empty house with no owner, turned again.
“What should I do now?”
The butler was ashamed, but he had no choice but to think of Lady Liliana, who had been forcibly taken by the Marquis of Wenson. He seemed to be able to find the Marquis if he used connections to the Crown Princess.
‘Even if we have a bad relationship, isn’t Liliana her friend? I’m sure she’ll give us a boost…….’
What if Lady Liliana inherits this marquis?
The aristocracy of the empire was basically the inheritance of the eldest son, but it was possible for a woman to inherit it when she had no other children or the owner recognized it.
Marquis Wenson had no other children. He was thorough in not making children outside. It was to protect the pure blood of the aristocracy.
After much thought, the butler decided to send a letter to Liliana. He is only a butler, but in this situation, he was able to use Marquis Wenson’s letter paper.
However, the Marquis seal was used only to seal the letter. He was afraid this would be a problem later.
Marquis Wenson’s butler was loyal, but not bold. He was a person who got used to the role by helping in a marquis from generation to generation.
“This to the imperial family.”
When he handed the letter to the servant, the employees thought that this moment had finally come. They vaguely guessed that the Marquis had attempted a dangerous task, and that he had been caught up in a crime and died.
This is because there was a rumor that he seemed to have ordered something strange to the butler before he disappeared. The butlers never told them, but they sometimes knew that their owner was doing dangerous things.
“I’ll be back, butler.”
The butler stared blankly as the servant put the letter in his arms and climbed into the Marquis’s carriage. He was just hoping that the Marquis of Wenson would return safely.

Liliana’s body was slowly recovering. Although her imperial doctor and healer were excellent, they couldn’t even change Liliana’s natural constitution. When she asked if she could go on her implicit tour, they shook her head as one.
“You’d better postpone your trip until later because you’re in the early stages of pregnancy.”
The imperial doctor recommended that she be more careful. And to think about it after the child has settled down.
However, Liliana thought it would be better to do it right now.
She was afraid she would stay here longer and bother Rowena. Already Rowena was defending her by any means she could.
‘I’m afraid of how my father will retaliate.”
According to Kian, Marquis Wenson intended to abort her child secretly. She was shocked, but she thought it was something her father would do.
Kian, who was coming up to the capital, also seemed to have encountered assassins several times already. When she asked because he had an unknown wound on his body, Kean had no choice but to confide.
Even now, Kian was careful whenever he went out of the palace. It was because he didn’t know when he would encounter the assassins released by Marquis Wenson.
It was safe inside the palace, but he couldn’t drink a sip of water freely outside.
Kian tried to hide this fact from Liliana, but Anna carefully told him so that he could know. That the Marquis still had a bounty on his neck.
