This is more an issue for the previous Volume, but eh, probably better chances for people to see it here. It's about the timing of Lanzenave wanting to send a princess to the Adalgisa villa.

King Chiaffredo is old enough to have an adult grandson, so shouldn't he have arranged for a successor long ago? Does Lanzenave wanting to send another princess mean that something happened to the crown prince, are they just building up the next generation early, to be on the safe side or is it part of a ploy?

If it's the first, I wonder if Leonzio was involved in the death, or if he's just taking advantage of the opportunity it opens up.

If it's the second, why is Leonzio claiming that it's so important and time-sensitive? Is that Lanzenave's actual position, or is it just part of his manipulations?
