Margaery continued, “For example, some people do not deserve to die, but the circumstances demand their death. Such a person is difficult to save, and saving them may bring trouble upon oneself.

“Some people deserve to die, but the circumstances do not allow them to die so soon. In that case, one cannot rush to kill them. If I do, I must bear the consequences myself.”

Margaery looked at Dashnell as she spoke, sincerely saying, “Dashnell, I need you.”

Dashnell liked this aspect of her character.

She was straightforward, whatever she wanted or needed.

This always allowed him to clearly understand what she wanted.

It also made it easier for him to know how to love her and what he should give her.

Dashnell said, “The King does not want turmoil in the court, so he hopes Nathaniel will live well, at least for another seven or eight years, nearly ten years.

“At the same time, he wishes to abolish the Chancellor system, because the Chancellor is all–powerful, which stifles other voices and prevents him from seeing the truth.

“It also affects his authority. He feels unsafe.”

Dashnell continued, looking at Margaery, “So, what he wants now is to depose the Chancellor, but without implicating too many people.

“Because if too many people are implicated, the court will become unstable.

“Once instability arises, external enemies will seize the opportunity.”

Margaery understood and said, “So, this time Raul will be convicted, but the charge will not be severe enough to warrant his death, nor will it involve his sons.

“Because if that happens, it would mean the complete downfall of the Wallen family.

“Once all hope is truly lost, those who previously clung to the Wallen family will be gripped by constant fear. The political situation will become turbulent, new factions will form, and everything will spiral out of control.”

Dashnell nodded and said, “You are very clever.

“Therefore, this time the defense map must be intercepted. Someone from the Wallen family needs to handle this matter. Not to give them credit, but to balance things out and prevent them from being wiped out.”

Even if the Wallen family was to be destroyed, it must wait until Margaery was completely unrelated to these people, not just by her own will.

Everyone must believe that Margaery truly had no connection to the Wallen family.

Otherwise, Margaery would inevitably be implicated.

Even if Dashnell became the King in the future, when he chose his queen, it would be easy for others to criticize him and bring up the Wallen family.

These matters must be guarded against in advance.

Moreover, the King currently didn’t want the balance under the Wallen family’s influence to collapse, so some things couldn’t be rushed.

He looked at Margaery and added, “As for who should go, I’ll leave the choice to you.”

Margaery fell silent.

Raul was someone the King intended to demote, so he definitely couldn’t be sent.

Joshua was not righteous. If he were, he would not have engaged in an affair with Tessa.

Moreover, he was already an imperial guard and could only be demoted, not promoted.

Avery was a physician. Sending him to intercept the defense map was unrealistic.

Furthermore, although he appeared gentle, he was actually the least reliable.

Andrew was too young.

After much consideration, only Russell remained.

“Then… Russell.” Margaery looked at Dashnell and said, “But Dashnell, do not tell him this was my idea.”

She did not want any further entanglements with the Wallen family.

Dashnell nodded and replied, “It seems that, indeed, only Russell can handle this matter now.”

As he spoke, he glanced outside the door and ordered, “Leandro, you go.”

“Yes!” Leandro nodded and left.

Dashnell looked at Margaery and continued, “Regarding Raul harming you to rescue Tessa, I will tell the King.

“However, it may take a few days.

“News came from the Eastern Palace today that Nathaniel entered the palace to ask the King to annul the engagement. The King agreed to issue the imperial edict within three days. We must wait until after he annuls the engagement before making our appearance, lest he cling to us again.”

He did not want Margaery to be tainted by anyone again. How annoying!

Margaery nodded and said, “I shall follow your lead.”

Dashnell reached out and put his arm around her shoulders. He said, “Once you establish your house, Raul’s punishment will be handed down as well… Perhaps these two matters will occur in quick succession. Immediately after, the cabinet will be established.”

Margaery pondered his words and asked, “Then, how will these matters affect the Eastern Palace, Marcus, and Callum?”

In handling relations with these individuals in the future, she needed to have a clear idea.

Dashnell summarized the information received over the past few days and said, “First, we can only intercept the defense map sent out by the Southcroft Empire spy, but we cannot intercept the one in Callum’s possession.

“In other words, Callum will find another opportunity to trade with the Southcroft Empire.

“He has two objectives.

“The first is to have the Southcroft Empire attack the southern border, drawing me away so I am too occupied to interfere in

court affairs, allowing him to stay behind and focus on seizing the throne.

“The second is to eliminate Nathaniel and Marcus.

“However, if he wishes to ascend the throne, he will incite Marcus’s men to carry out the task of killing Nathaniel.

“As for Marcus, his intentions in marrying you have been exposed. Now, the King has sent him to the Hadley family. He is already anxious, sending secret agents everywhere to contact his faction, on edge, and suspicious of everything.

“If my guess is correct, Callum will soon create conflict between the Eastern Palace and Marcus, then kill Nathaniel and let Marcus take the blame.

“Once Nathaniel and Marcus are dead, Callum will be the eldest among the princes.

“The heir is chosen by seniority. Thus, his chance to seize the throne will be greatest.”

This was also why Dashnell was in no hurry to reveal himself.

He was the ninth prince. The throne was still a long way from falling to him.

Margaery had a rough idea in her mind and said, “In other words, if something happens to Raul, it will become a catalyst for Marcus to erupt.
