### Summary
This chapter shifts focus to a new political conspiracy, introducing a highly despised antagonist identified by readers as Princess Michaela, the king's niece. The central plot involves her secretly poisoning King Cayden, with the ultimate goal of framing Yessica's sister, Agnes, for the crime. Michaela is shown manipulating Agnes into serving the king, thereby creating a perfect scapegoat. Reader comments, including one detailing raw scans, confirm the plot's immediate success: the king collapses with a nosebleed after consuming food served by Agnes, leaving her as the prime suspect while Michaela is seen smirking. This development places both the king and Agnes in imminent danger. A secondary revelation notes that Alex remains unaware of his mother Edna's royal heritage, a detail readers anticipate will become crucial to his own legitimacy. The tension is further compounded by the news that Duke Frederick is now actively searching for Yessica.
