The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 236: Reassuring the citizens.

Roland and Sigrid remained in an embrace until the royal advisors came in search of the crown prince. The time to address the citizens had come. Every member of the royal family was present for what was equal to a press conference in these times. It was held in the throne room, Roland did not sit on the throne but his royal seat.

Sigrid was beside him to show her support for her husband. Both of them were wearing their crowns to remind everyone of their positions as crown prince and princess.

Nobles from the strongest and oldest houses that lived in the city or close enough to rush to the royal castle had been invited and briefed on the situation.

A war that we never dared to fight ever since the loss we suffered at the hands of Medoris fifty five years ago. We have reclaimed our lost city and expanded the boarders of Eldoria, restoring them to what they once were.
