The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 59: I have a popular back.

Sigrid regarded the princess slowly as she wondered what the woman wanted with or from her. Nobody in the royal family was what they seemed.

The king had four siblings that were still alive, the others had died in childhood, or met their death at Raff’s hand in the struggle for the throne.

After he took the throne, he had all of his sisters and brothers that were still alive removed from the capital. They were practically imprisoned in castles in other cities far apart from each other.

They were also forbidden from ever stepping foot out of those cities, the result of attempting to do so was death. Only their dead bodies would ever be allowed to enter the capital to be buried in the royal tombs.

Romilda however was the only one of king Raff’s siblings that was allowed to live in the capital. She visited the royal castle frequently and her relationship with the king was very strong.

"I am nobody’s opponent." Sigrid answered casually. "I am just a crown princess that is doing her best to navigate the complicated twists of being royalty."

Princess Romilda raised the crystal glass to her lips and and took a sip of wine, a soft smile was playing at the edges of said lips when she put it down. "Complicated you say, might you care to share some of those complications with me?" she replied, her tone layered, each word chosen with deliberate care.

Sigrid shrugged, her expression one of innocence. "You are royalty princess Romilda, you have been here far longer than I have. I am sure that you understand better than me."

"You are quite the good speaker, every time you open your mouth someone almost loses a head." Romilda tilted her head slightly, her eyes were filled with curiosity as she looked at Sigrid.

"And yet nobody has lost a head so far, I guess I am not that great at speaking, not like some others. With a few tears, red knights can be commanded to take the life of a crown princess. There is nothing wrong with self preservation, unless you think it’s wrong. Do you?" Sigrid replied, equally curious.
