The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 87: Better than expected.

"Father-in-law, | hear many things, s| have cto believe are false. A lot of nobles are sending servants to

my restaurants so that they can gossip deliberately for other people to overhear and spread wrong information.

Sof it is correct of course, but | believe most is inaccurate. The only way to know for sure is to find proof of

what is said and | don’t really care to look into gossip.

For example, someone got drunk in one of the private dining rooms and apparently claimed that the Silberuss

family had a map of another piece of the Eclipsion sword.

| wanted to bring this information to you, but | am afraid that it is just gossip. They are descended of royal blood,

I have seen people kneel before arch duke Karlton in reverence, princess Livia respects no one in this kingdom.

Lord Douglass has trampled ten people to death with his horses in the city because they did not make way for

him. Everybody says they are untouchable and all powerful."

She shook her head and sighed, "I cannot afford to bring baseless rumors about them before you. My Thorin

family cannot afford to offend them."

"Your Thorin family!" The king snarled and slammed a hand on the table. "Crown princess, do you have no

loyalty to the Maximus family?"

She pretended to be stunned and blinked a few times. "Father-in-law, what do you mean? | took my husband's

last nafter wedding him, | am now Sigrid Maximus, | am loyal to both of my families.

Please understand however, | am helpless in this matter, while | can relay every nonsensical thing that | have

heard to my family | cannot do the swith you. | am afraid that you might think that | have other ambitions."

"That is not your decision to make, | am the king and I decide what to do with any information out there

circulation the royal family and all of our relatives. From now, on, | expect a daily report on anything that you

have heard." He gave the command sternly.

Sigrid nodded and replied in a soft voice, "Of course, your highness. | will not leave a single thing out, if you wish

| can begin right now."

She could now understand why the king had invited her into the palace, it was for this reason. He wanted to take

advantage of her restaurant and use it as an information farm.

"Well, since you have volunteered then you can go ahead and tellwhat you have heard. Has anything else

been said about uncle's family?"

She touched tapped the table slolwy with just one finger as she pretended to think, meanwhile she was farming

for information from Cosmos.

"They have a secret room. " he said.

She looked around pretentiously as if she was going to share secret information that could not fall in the ears of

anyone but them.

"Leave us." the king commanded.

They waited for the knights and maids to step away and the king moved closer to Sigrid, he maintained a

respectable distance however so as not to be perceived as inappropriate.

Sigrid lowered her voice to a near whisper and said, "They have a secret room in the main house of their estate,

it is a war room where arch duke Karlton has laid out all his plans"

"He has already made royal outfits prepared for when he becomes king." Cosmos told her.

Sigrid relayed the information to the king, "He has a royal robe like yours, it is deep blue velvet with those

intricate golden birds embroidered into it. They use threads from a ten legged magic spider so it glows just like

yours."

King Raff curled his lips downwards in displeasure. "Hmph, he doesn’t even have a single mage in his family. He

doesn’t understand the significance of the royal robe."

The royal robe which was sewn with magical threads was only used by kings that had magic or had sired a child

with magic. King Raff had no magic but his son Roland did, Karlton Silberuss did did not have a single

descendant with magic flowing in their blood.

"What else?" he demanded.

Sigrid sighed, this was going to be one long breakfast, she shared everything that Cosmos deemed necessary to

make her useful in the eyes of the king. When she finally finished sharing that information, he was back to being

suspicious.

"So, people just walk into your restaurant and share all this?"

Quickly, Sigrid shook her head. "Of course not, when | started hearing these rumors two months ago | started

snooping around, | put my ears to the ground. | planned to share my doubts with Roland on his return, | never

thought that | would be having this conversation with you directly."

King Raff poured himself a fresh cup of tea from a silver teapot. Somehow, the tea was hot despite the fact that

the water in there had been sitting for over an hour.

Steam rising from the cups carried a hint of lavender which irked her, it smelled like Rina. She guessed that this

tea was provided by Rina, it was another thing that needed replacing.

"Your highness why don’t you try the Royal Raff coffee?"

She widened her eyes and gave him a look of great expectation like an excited child. There was a sense of

eagerness in as she took charge and directly mixed two cups of coffee. Her eyes sparkled as she handed the

king one cup and took the other.

"Should we toast?" she asked.

King Raff scratched the side of his

neck, he had never felt more pressure

to praise and reward Someorie like he

expressive so he picked up the cup

He took one tentative sip and savored the flavor which he immediately found pleasant. It was different from

what she sold at her coffee house and what she had sent to the royal kitchen.

"Mmm..." he mumbled and took a second sip.

Sigrid smiled knowingly into her cup,

this was bristot coffee, she had

simply purchased, t from the Bark.

Whether the king caught on to what she meant or not was left to see.

"So, what else have you heard?" he asked.

He found himself enjoying his breakfast with Sigrid, the conversation was of good quality as was the coffee.

"That's all on the Silberuss family, as for other random things, | heard princess Romilda took in a new lover..."

she stopped her mouth and laughed nervously. "My apologies."

"Next," The king laughed as he gestured for her to move on.

She looked up and then said, "Uhmm, that you are Emmah’s father. Emmah is the woman that saved the crown

prince, the fake divine messenger."
