The letter

"That's not it my lord. The knights of the imperial palace are here. They have brought a summon for you!" George frowned but soon three deep lines on his face turned into relief and he laughed.

"You fool! Do you even know what a summon is? They must have come here with a letter of thanks or an acceptance letter.

It might even be a compliment from the prince that I have done a good job. And here you are spearing the negativity!!

Go and bring the convoy in and serve him tea. I will get there in a minute!" The servant was unsure as he could swear that he had heard the messenger saying that it was a summon. 

But he did not want to meddle in the affair further and get scolded. If his master said that he did not know anything, then he did not know anything! He nodded his head and left from there with hurried steps.

George turned to see his wife that was still staring at the place where the servant was standing a while ago and tsked!
