The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 87: Better than expected.

"Father-in-law, I hear many things, some I have come to 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.

Some of it is correct of course, but I believe most is inaccurate. The only way to know for sure is to find proof of what is said and I 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.

I wanted to bring this information to you, but I 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? I took my husband’s last name after wedding him, I am now Sigrid Maximus, I am loyal to both of my families.

Please understand however, I am helpless in this matter, while I can relay every nonsensical thing that I have heard to my family I cannot do the same with you. I am afraid that you might think that I have other ambitions."

"That is not your decision to make, I 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, I 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. I will not leave a single thing out, if you wish I 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.
