The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 36: A collaboration between Sigrid and the queen.

Queen Maurelia stepped away from Sigrid, she raised her hand as if she was going to slap her and then she stopped herself.

"Presumptuous," she said sternly.

That word, along with her tough attitude would have sent people crawling on their knees and apologizing in tears but Sigrid did not quake. The relationship between her and the queen was not close, it was one of mutual benefit.

It had been no mistake that the original Sigrid had found Roland and peeked at him when he was bathing during the royal hunt. It was the queen that had her people leak the his location to Sigrid because she knew the woman was obsessed with her son.

Her plan had been to alert some people and create a scandal around the two, forcing them to marry which would bring the power of the Thorin’s to Roland.

When that did not work, she mentioned it to the king and warned him of what would happen if the duke found out his precious granddaughter had been together with a half naked Roland.

The king that had always wanted to control the Thorin’s military power saw an opportunity to do so immediately. It was safe to say that everyone in the royal family was a schemer.

"Do my words displease you, your highness?" Sigrid asked slowly. "I sure do hope not because you should be aware of the precarious situation that we all find ourselves in. If Rina does not lose the king’s affection and ear, sooner or later one of her sons will take Roland’s place and the throne. What do you think will happen to you, me and the rest of your children?"
