Her Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 973

Chapter 973

After a while, Winona appeared at the entrance of Concord Lodge. It was likely she hadn’t come alone. When Carissa had seen her earlier, she had been dressed in stealth attire. But now, she wore her usual attire and her stealth attire was nowhere in sight.

Carissa hurried over to greet her and asked, “What’s the situation, Winona?”

“I stayed on the roof of Grand Princess Lisandra’s quarters for a while. She’s unconscious. There are a few maids by her side. I overheard them talking–she came back from the Diplomatic Affairs Department not long ago and suddenly went into a fit. She even bit someone. After that, she lost consciousness,” Winona replied.

“She went into a fit and bit someone? Could she have gone momentarily insane?” Violet exclaimed, astonished.

“Did you hear what they said in the main courtyard?” Carissa asked.

“They were arguing in the main courtyard. Some wanted to summon a royal physician or Sebastian, but others opposed it. Since I was on the roof, I couldn’t tell who was for or against it.”

“Was there a woman among those opposing?”

“Yes,” Winona replied. When she saw Travis, she knew Carissa and the others must already know that one of Lisandra’s female officials was involved. “But I can’t be sure if it was Penny.”

“Were many people opposing calling for a physician?” Carissa pressed.

“About three or four people. But it wasn’t just opposition–they were weighing the situation. One woman, though, was adamantly against it. She argued that our Starhaven physicians were no match for their royal physician, and there was a risk of harm.”

“So, the people opposing are mainly concerned that Grand Princess Lisandra might suffer if the wrong decision is made, and they’re worried about the consequences?” Carissa clarified.

Winona nodded. “That’s one way to put it.”

Carissa didn’t hesitate. “Then, let’s go!”

Travis stopped her for a moment. “Should we inform His Highness? Perhaps he should make the decision.”

“No,” Carissa said firmly. “This is my decision, not His Highness‘.”

She immediately sent a message for the Capital Guard on watch to come over, and ordered, “You will go in with Mr. Travis and Ms. Spencer Try to avoid any conflict and do not

engage with any envoys.”

“Understood!” the capital guards responded in unison.

Travis and Violet led the way with the Capital Guard, while Carissa and Winona followed closely behind with Sebastian in tow.

The Westhaven guards saw them coming in full force and immediately stepped forward to block their path. Violet and Travis tried to communicate with them, but it was like a conversation between a chicken and a duck–neither side could understand the other. This led to the envoys from the main courtyard coming out.

“What are you doing? What’s going on?” Leroy shouted as he appeared, visibly furious.

Carissa stepped forward. “We’ve learned that Grand Princess Lisandra is unwell, and we’ve brought Starhaven’s renowned physician here to treat her.”

“No need for that.” Leroy waved his hand dismissively. “We have our royal physician. Step

back.”

Penny’s expression changed slightly as she approached. “How did you replace out?”

Carissa looked to Winona, her eyes silently asking a question–was it her?

Winona recognized the voice–it was the same one she had overheard earlier, the woman who had opposed summoning a physician. She nodded in confirmation.

Upon hearing Penny’s words, Leroy snapped out of his thoughts and turned to Carissa with renewed fury. “That’s right, how did you know? Did you break in? Or have you been spying on us? Eavesdropping on our conversations?”

“During the negotiations, we were aware that Grand Princess Lisandra was unwell,” Carissa said, raising her voice. “We came in just now to use the restroom and overheard your guards discussing her condition, saying it was quite serious. Hence, we brought Sebastian here to treat her. We’re doing this because we don’t want Grand Princess Lisandra’s health to affect the negotiations.”

“Absurd!” Amos scoffed. “How could it affect the negotiations? Tomorrow’s talks won’t be canceled. We aren’t reliant on just Grand Princess Lisandra for negotiations.”

Garrick stepped forward. “Since they’re already here, we might as well let them in. Her Highness hasn’t woken up yet.”

“No!” Leroy immediately objected. “Who knows what they’re really after?”

Penny’s face was also filled with suspicion.

“I don’t agree, either,” she said. “Our royal physician, Mr. Glover, is the one who understands Her Highness‘ condition best. How can we allow just any physician to treat her? Even though we’re not at war, the relationship between our two kingdoms is still

somewhat hostile. Also, we’re in the middle of a delicate negotiation. If they take advantage of this and harm Her Highness, can we take responsibility for that?”
