The body examination would be held three days before the wedding.
As expected, the person who would perform the body examination on Miss Vera was Queen Aisha.
Although the king and Prince William were not satisfied with this candidate, they could not find a more suitable candidate.
Naturally, the location of the body examination was Queen Consort's palace. It was a private and solemn place.
When Colin led Vera into the palace, he found that all the high-level officials of the half-elf kingdom were already there.
There was an oval bed in the middle of the palace. The bed was neatly covered with dark purple silk. The pillow was a light beige color with rose patterns embroidered on it. It looked dignified and elegant.
There was an opaque curtain around the bed. It was probably specially prepared for today's body examination.
Colin suspected that when the curtain was closed, Queen Aisha would not even need Vera to take off her clothes before she announced that she was innocent.
"Is there a need for so many people?" Vera looked at the half-elf nobles in the room and frowned. She was a little speechless.
"Okay, why don't we all leave and let Her Highness Queen Consort perform the body examination on Miss Vera alone? Your Majesty, what do you think?" Duke Müller asked the sleepy king.
The old king opened his sleepy eyes and seemed to have just come to his senses. He nodded slowly and said, "Okay … Okay, we'll do as you say."
"I want to stay," the Knights Of Telde said immediately.
The knight of the House of Saint Hilde had never left Vera's side.
Of course, that was except for the night at the Red Maple Manor …
Duke Müller was stunned for a moment before he said, "Okay, then we will have to trouble the Knights Of Telde."
He then looked at Prince Tupé and said, "Your Highness, why don't you stay and entertain the guests?"
Prince Tupé naturally did not refuse. "Okay!"
"Then I will stay too," Colin said immediately.
Everyone had a strange look in their eyes, but they didn't say anything.
Prince William seemed to want to stay as well, but he did not have a good excuse to do so. After all, unlike Colin and Ted, he was not responsible for Vera's safety, and unlike his younger brother, he was not Vera's fiancé.
Thus, he could only support the old king and walk out with the rest of the half-elf nobles.
From Prince William's point of view, this body examination was just a formality.
Would Queen Aisha say that Vera was not innocent?
The Earl Of Avon's plan was so easily neutralized?
Prince William suddenly realized that the Earl Of Avon's plan was too perfunctory …
After everyone had left the palace, Queen Aisha invited Vera and the others to take a seat before she said, "Come on, let's have a cup of scented tea to relax your mind."
"Thank you, Your Highness Queen Consort!"
Colin also sat down at the round table and drank the scented tea that Queen Aisha had personally brewed for him as he looked around Queen Consort's palace.
The overall layout of the palace was not deliberately luxurious. Instead, it had a refreshing and elegant style.
In addition to the bed in the middle of the palace, there was only a sandalwood wardrobe near the wall and a dressing table near the window.
In addition to a jewelry box and toiletries, there was also a pot of blood rose on the table.
"Your Highness Queen Consort, that blood rose is really beautiful!" Vera could not help but exclaim when she saw the pot of blood rose.
Indeed, although Colin had seen a lot of blood roses in the Hyacinth Chamber of Commerce and the Royal Garden, it was obvious that none of them could be compared to the one in front of him.
That blooming posture and that beautiful color made it seem like a burning flame that was consuming its own life just to leave a trace of beauty in this world.
"Yes, it is really beautiful." Queen Aisha also sighed.
She slowly walked to the window and reached out to touch the blooming blood rose with a proud look on her face, "This flower was personally cultivated by me."
"You are really amazing!" Vera could not help but exclaim.
"This flower is mother's treasure!" Prince Tupé also laughed and said, "My naughty little nephew, Charlie, once accidentally plucked a petal from this flower. As a result, mother smacked his buttocks and he was bedridden for ten days!"
Queen Aisha smiled and shook her head, "That kid still hates me because of this. A few days ago, he even ruined the blood roses that I planted in the garden."
Prince Tupé quickly said, "Mother, don't worry. I will go to the Hyacinth Chamber of Commerce tomorrow and ask Sith to send you some more blood roses."
Queen Aisha shook her head and said, "There is no need."
Prince Tupé suddenly felt puzzled and just as he was about to ask why, Queen Consort suddenly said, "Do you know why this blood rose is so beautiful?"
"Why?" Vera asked curiously.
Colin suddenly remembered the method of cultivating the blood roses that Queen Aisha had told him before. He smiled and interrupted, "Don't tell me that this blood rose was watered with the blood of a knight?"
Queen Aisha glanced at Colin with her big charming eyes and chuckled, "Yes. And it is not just blood. "
Colin frowned and suddenly felt that Queen Aisha's state seemed a little strange today.
"Not just blood, what else is there?"
Queen Elsa leaned against the windowsill. The bright sunlight shone in from outside the window, covering her with a layer of god-like halo.
Today, she was wearing a silver low-cut dress with slim shoulders, showing off her curvaceous figure without a doubt.
Her face was also obviously carefully dressed up. Her pink cheeks and soft red lips, together with the gorgeous blood roses, exuded a breathtaking beauty.
Queen Aisha smiled when she heard Colin's question.
"And … the head."
"What?!"
The other four people in the room were shocked by this answer.
Prince Tupé smiled awkwardly and said, "Mother, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Queen Aisha smiled brightly and suddenly the whole palace seemed to be illuminated by such a bright smile.
"I am not talking nonsense."
Colin's strange feeling was getting stronger and stronger.
The half-elf Queen Consort in front of him was very strange!
Vera seemed to have realized something and quickly changed the topic, "Your Highness, why don't we start the body inspection? It is not good to let the others wait outside for too long."
Queen Aisha did not move and was still caressing the blood roses' petals. Her tone became a little uncertain.
"I am not talking nonsense. If you do not believe me, you can break the flower pot and see if there is a …
The head! "
"Mother!" Prince Tupé stood up suddenly, as if he wanted to stop Queen Consort who was talking nonsense.
But as soon as he stood up, he swayed and it was as if he was going to fall to the ground in the next second.
The Knights Of Telde saw Prince Tupé's condition and were suddenly frightened. They immediately stood up and touched the sword at their waist. At the same time, they wobbled and reminded him.
"The tea … there is a problem with the tea!"
Colin blinked and also realized that the situation was not right.
However, he did not panic too much.
He had already experimented with it and he was immune to poison.
Moreover, he did not feel any discomfort until now.
"Bang!"
On the other side, Prince Tupé had already fallen to the ground.
After that, Knight Ted did not hold on for long. He wobbled and fell to the ground.
Vera, on the other hand, was already lying on the table, unconscious.
Facing such a situation, Colin sighed secretly and quickly closed his eyes and leaned back.
"Bang!"
He fell to the ground.
