Crown of the Empire

The life of Elena, the first lady-in-waiting to Her Majesty, isn't so much about balls, corsets and fancy hats as it is court intrigue, secret service and life-threatening covert operations for the good of the Empire. For example, Elena's last mission was to safely recover stolen ancient relics. An unknown thief had ransacked the national museum and got away with the namesakes of the empire's oldest rulers. A team of detectives picked up a trail that led across the border, but then disappeared. The Queen summoned Elena.
"The items stolen are of paramount value to the empire and crown," she said in a slightly wavering voice. "We mustn't lose them."
"I understand, your Majesty," Elena answered, knowing full well the trouble spent acquiring them, and how much they meant to the Queen personally.
"But announcing their disappearance would only complicate the matter, so you must carry out your duty in the strictest secrecy!" The queen continued, slowing down slightly towards the end, as if double-checking her plan as she laid it out. Then she leaned back in her chair and continued.
"You shall at once be sent abroad under the guise of an ambassador to carry out your investigation in secret. You must track down the perpetrator and force them to return what was stolen," the Queen concluded in a stern, powerful tone, as if Elena herself was the culprit refusing to return the stolen relics.
Elena soon found herself on a top-secret covert mission of vital interest to the Crown. The first leg covered half the country by train, then on a steamboat across the bay, followed by another exhausting train ride in the neighboring country. Her first order of business upon arrival was notifying the local police of the missing valuables.
"Were the items stolen from your hotel or at the port?" Asked the chief of police, his moustache twitching like a walrus'.
"Neither," Elena answered, trying to look disheveled and disoriented by the situation. "They were stolen on the boat, but I know for certain the culprit is still here.
"Hm...very well," the officer let out with an air of authority. "We'll get on the case at once, don't you worry. There isn't a criminal out there who can slip away from me..." He paused for some reason, almost as if pondering his own words, and after taking a deep breath, concluded at long last "...and escape."
By evening, the list of suspects had been narrowed down to a few names. Elena asked the chief if she could accompany the detectives to identify the culprit, and he granted the victim permission. At first the detective team was far from excited about the idea of a civilian with no special training tagging along, but changed their tune after just a few hours. Elena was not only sharp as a tack, but was well-versed in the new deductive method, which helped her along the way solve five robberies, two murders and one case of destruction of property in the hotel. In the end, Elena and the detective team tracked down the artifact thief and were just waiting for the judge to sign the arrest warrant, when an urgent telegram came in from the Prime Minister with orders to meet that very night. She had no choice but to return home that very instant and put her operation on hold. What was it that happened in the palace that forced her to abandon her job and return immediately?
