holy shit Phil, why are you trying so desperately to seem like the most suspicious person possible? first you not only hire but also protect the assassin that tried to murder the royal princess but you also refuse to hand him over when the foreign king who's daughter he tried to murder demands it but now when the person who hired the assassin is revealed you say that he should not be punished or killed but only not be allowed to go into politics... it's like you want people to think you are behind it, the only reason the audience doesn't is because we actually see shit through your eyes but everyone els doesn't. any sane person in that world would find him extremely suspicious.
