Knowing how his wife will react now, Raksheet asked Shreyansh to leave but instead of leaving he said.
"Sorry your majesty, but his majesty Dhishva has told me not to leave his majesty Viraaj's side at all."
Hearing him talking back to her husband, Ira's pain turned into anger and before Raksheet could say anything, she yelled at Shreyansh.
"GET OUT OF HERE!!!"
Hearing her sudden yell, Shreyansh flinched on his place and left from there immediately. Raksheet saw his wife slowly breaking down and sitting beside her grandfather, who had regained some consciousness. He walked towards her and held her shoulder, rubbing her arm gently and she leaned on him, crying silently.
Hearing her sobs, Viraaj opened his eyes and tried to look around. As Ira saw him opening his eyes, she leaned forward towards him and called him.
"Grandfather..."
Viraaj recognised her voice and looked at her. "Ira...." He whispered in weakness.
Ira smiled hearing him calling her and wiped her tears. "Yes grandfather. It me. I am here to meet you."
Viraaj smiled at her and tried to raise his hand to hold her hand. She immediately grabbed his hand and tears again found a reason to fall from her eyes.
"You promised me you will take care of yourself. Then why you let this happen to you?" She complained.
"I am fin-"
"No you are not!" She scolded him. "Stop saying that you are fine because you are not."
Viraaj's smile grew even more wider as his granddaughter is scolding him as always. He missed her scolding alot. He knew his time is about to end and he wanted his granddaughter to be close to him during this time. But he didn't wanted to bother her or scare her so he didn't told about it to anyone.
Viraaj then looked beside Ira and found Raksheet looking at him with a worried look.
"Raksheet...how are you?"
Raksheet came closer to him and held his hand "I am fine grandfather. How are you feeling now?"
"I am feeling great now that....you and my granddaughter is with me." Viraaj replied.
Ira wanted to stay with her grandfather but since they had travelled for long time, Raksheet asked her to take rest. And Viraaj forced her to leave saying that he want to sleep.
After a while, Agastya and Ankush entered inside Ira and Raksheet's chamber as Raksheet asked them to come to meet him. Ira was sleeping because of tiredness and Raksheet sat down outside the bedroom with Agastya and Ankush so that their conversation won't wake her up.
"They forbade us from entering in his majesty's chamber. May be has suspected us of being your spy." Agastya said
"Your majesty, I don't trust that man Shreyansh. He looks too sly to me." Ankush said "I am sure prince Veer will ask him to do something with his majesty." He addressed Veer with respect as he is Raksheet's brother-in-law and may be he won't like it if they disrespect him.
Raksheet nod understandingly and asked "Did you saw them meeting in person or doing anything?"
They shook their head as no and Ankush said. "Vikram has seen prince Veer meeting a man in forest but that man disappeared and prince Veer never went to meet him after that. At first, he tried to enter in his majesty's chamber but Agastya stopped him. He even beated Agastya." He looked at Agastya who was looking down at his hands, remembering how he controlled his anger that day.
Raksheet looked at Agastya in shock that he got beaten by Veer but didn't told him about it. "When did he beat you? And why didn't you told me?"
Agastya looked at Raksheet and smiled bitterly. "We spys are used to it. Getting beaten by people who are superior than us. And what would have changed if I had informed you. It would have only caused problems."
Raksheet understood what Agastya is trying to say "But you should have informed us about it. We would have been carefull about your safety. What if he had done something to you or Ankush?"
"Don't worry about me your majesty. He is always with me to protect me." Ankush said, pointing towards Agastya.
Raksheet chuckled to see their bonding. He then looked at them and started to discuss about the war. "As you must have heard about the war Bayar has announced on Jwalana."
They nod in response and he continued. "I am here to ask help from Ira's father in war. Till the war ends, princess Ira will stay here. I hope he will help me. And if he didn't, I will leave immediately to war as I don't have any other reason to stay here as it will only waste the time. You two have to take care of princess Ira and her grandfather. Veer may try to harm her thinking that her husband is in war and will not know anything he will do to her and the chance of me returning back is very low because of the difference between Bayar's and Jwalana's army."
Ankush and Agastya looked at eachother and then at Raksheet worriedly.
Seeing the worried look on their faces, Raksheet chuckled "Don't worry, I will try to come back alive. I have already asked Ranyav, my grandmother's kingdom to help us. They have a large and powerful army too."
Finally they felt relieved and smiled a little.
"But if something goes wrong and I don't come back, don't stop the mission and continue it until you find strong evidence against Veer."
They nod and Ankush said "We will find the evidence no one can reject and will throw him behind the bars."
Seeing the excitement in Ankush's eye, both Raksheet and Agastya were surprised and laughed.
Dhishva stepped out of the palace with his soldiers to take a round in the market and meet people but the main reason was to get the powder.
His son has told him that the man who provides him that powder will come in forest to meet him but as their plan has changed and Dhishva has asked Veer to stay out of it and he will take care of everything, instead of Veer, Dhishva is going to bring that powder. Because if he get caught while getting that powder and later get accused of killing his father, it won't affect him much as his son will be safe and will save him after becoming the king.
But if his son gets caught, his all hard work will go in vain and he will have to find new heir for his throne which could be either Ira's or Veera's child. Most probably Veera's child because of the affection and love he have for her and he can't let his father's dream of seeing Ira and Raksheet ruling his kingdom come true.
Vikram saw Dhishva stepping outside the palace. He wasn't aware of Dhishva's deeds so he didn't thought that it is necessary to follow him or he can find anything by following him. But his guts were forcing him to take his steps towards Dhishva and follow him. He was in dilemma whether to follow Dhishva or wait for Veer to come outside.
Pushing all the thoughts behind and following his gut feeling, he started following Dhishva. For an hour, Dhishva was looking normal and doing all the expected things like meeting people and store owners in market. View the changes that have been made in few days. But after a while, he started walking in the same direction as Veer when Vikram followed him last time.
Vikram's eyes widened in shock but he was expecting things to not turn out how he is thinking. Because if his mind is taking him in right direction, then the most trusted person is the biggest threat for Viraaj's life.
