Her words shocked all people here.
“Girl,” Madam Priscilla looked at her and said, “Can you tell me the whole story?”
Tanner was not sympathetic towards the deceased King, so she was brutally frank about the stories of the deep love between Calamity and Williams, the marriage arranged by Queen Eliza, and Calamity’s helplessness of the King’s order in front of the people here. She was a pragmatic person, so her impartial comments sounded particularly convincing.
Everyone was silent for a while.
Foster’s three sons were not officials, so they generally ignored the affairs of the court. Hearing what Tanner said, they were more thankful for their choice. Working for a King was tantamount to living with a tiger. This was true. The deceased King treated his son badly, let alone the officials.
Madam Priscilla was also silent for a while and then sighed, “What's so strange? He is cruel by nature. I have experienced and know his evil.”
