The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 35: The king needs a new whore.

There was no such as loyalty in the royal family, except to themselves and even then it could vanish at the snap of a finger, this everyone knew. And yet, it still surprised them to see the king, for the first time ever making a moved against his precious consort in public.

It was all to save his own face, of course but still, it was unexpected and deeply satisfying to watch. The feeling did not last long.

"I fear that I have come down with a headache, I need to retire and take care of it." king Raff said and he turned to the queen. "I believe that you can handle the rest of this court gathering without me, like the crown princess said, it is a matter that concerns women."

He stood up and walked out of the hall, the last words that were heard from the king as the doors closed was the order for a royal doctor to be sent to him in the chambers of the secondary consort.

It was why the satisfying feeling that the lords and queen were enjoying did not last long, obviously the king had gone off to search for his consort, to grovel and pamper her.

It set off a new wave of whispers, snickers and a plethora of looks were sent the queen’s way, as if they were all waiting for her to breakdown.

The queen clenched her jaw and attempted to look as natural and unbothered as she could.

"Let’s continue." she ordered curtly.

Lord Bailey laughed awkwardly, "Err, I had only one law in mind but we can use this opportunity to overhaul the old laws and make new ones. Uhm, perhaps the crown princess would like to share more of her ideas."

Sigrid waved a guard over and whispered to him that he should find Lanai and bring her materials over. While that was being done, she calmly joined lord Bailey and took the floor.
