The large four poster bed is adorned with the finest linens that Europe has to offer.  Gold is liberally woven through the fabric of the duvet and the tassels that drape to the floor on each corner of the duvet.  A gauzy purple fabric hanging from the bed posts sets an opaque tone to the room.  One window is shuttered by large wooden planks that can be thrown open to allow the mid day light to illuminate the room.  A large chest of drawers holds a small portion of the King's clothing.
Kings chambers, Inside Palace
a royal prince
advisor
I advise the king if they ask for my input on something. I am well educated and know many things. I am greedy and look for ways to increase my own power.
You thief! You know fully well that the tax money cannot be taken without the king's consent. He will hear of your treachery Know your place, fool! I am your prince! You will tell the king what I say you wil tell him! Now, kiss my hand. Kiss the hand of a traitor? I think not! Your father is blinded by his affections for you, but I am not. When your crimes come to light, you will be removed from this court. The King would have done well to listen to me when I told him of who you really are So, you, in fact, are the one to be labeled "traitor". Tell me, betrayer, do you value the welfare of your children?  You think you can threaten me, how funny. It is your word against mine, and would the man who saved the King's life ever lie to him? Anything you do to me I will have done to you a hundred times over when you are cast out and can no longer compete for my influence. Dead men cannot speak! Take this! No weapons allowed in the kings court? Only for those who cannot improvise! You will not leave this room with that. You will not leave this room alive. Then that will make two of us Let's finish this, betrayer! You prove a worthy adversary, but in your struggle you have become distracted, and have lost your prize. You know full well that when this goes missing, the King will have both of our heads. Unless his power is taken. Leave with me and speak of this never, and surely you will be king by morning. You are a strong man, sharp and powerful, unlike your father. Together we will conquer the realm. I don't trust you. You're as ambitious and as manipulative as myself, which makes you the most ambitious and manipulative person in the entire kingdom.
