The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 325: The Nithercott sisters.

Lord Alexander knocked on the table with his knuckles, demanding for the attention of all those at the table. "Laughter is good, but I beg that we depart from it for a few minutes and consider the seriousness of the issue at hand. Akia Imogen Nithercott is not a woman to be trifled with. She single handedly changed Medoris, politically, socially and economically. Now that the emperor is dead and some nobles are openly expressing their displeasure on her involvement in the political affairs of the empire, she is seeking an alliance with your crown prince.

There are two types of alliances between men and women, one which is based on mistrust but rooted in mutual benefits so it is strictly economical or political. And then, there is one that involves a deep personal relationship. Eldoria’s laws, like those of Medoris still allow for a man to have two wives.

When it comes to relationships between no neighboring and warring empires, the best alliance is a marriage alliance. And if that marriage alliance is with an emperor it is even better."

Ethan leaned forward and said, "My father fears that your crown prince will be charmed by Akia and help her become empress of Medoris. After getting the throne, she will turn her eyes to the throne of Eldoria, seeking to merge the empires and she will become the empress of the largest empire in the world, as far as we know."

Cracking the shell of a hard boiled egg with a spoon, John said, "We are confident in dealing with this Akia. She will not be the first divine messenger to attempt to manipulate the royal family. With my sister here, I am sure that we will send her back to Medoris with her head bowed in shame in no time."

"You speak too soon Mister John." Lady Isolde put down a spoon and she looked at Sigrid even though it was not her name that had been said. "Akia is not the one you have to fear, her sister Anita Nithercott is the one you should dread. There is a reason as to why Akia is not coming alone. She is the kind of woman that makes three plans, if the first one fails, she initiates another and then another. After three failures, she secretly takes other measures to uproot the source of her failure."

"So she will kill me if her plans fail." Sigrid said in monotone.
