Kapitel 215: Sharing the Burden - I

It was the next morning and as the past few days, Adeline was in the King's Court. She was sitting on her own throne by the side of the King's throne.

Today, a meeting was going on regarding the tax embezzlement that had been taking place in the village. Adeline was the one to raise the issue in the court and bring the matter to light in front of the King and the councilmen.

The first day in the court was a little difficult for Adeline. But by now, she had already been habituated to the hard glare from the councilmen and she was addressing today's agenda to the council, "In today's meeting, I would like to raise the issue which has been kept hush for a long time."

"I would like to make the King and the council aware of the fraudulent activities of Prince Edwin. He was involved in tax fraud for the past four years. He has been illegally accumulating the hard-earned money of the innocent villagers."
