The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 15: Counter measures of a schemer.

Sigrid raised her eyebrows, oh look another detail that was forgotten in the book, Emmah was raised on the

funds of the Thorin family. They basically raised the child that would lead to their downfall.

In addition to that, they sheltered her mother, fed her, clothed her and protected her reputation. When a filtered

version of this story was released to the public, Duchess Mila got the identity of a villain for cruelly forcing

Mirena and Emmah to separate because she could not let go of her servant while Mirena was seen as the poor

humble servant that suffered a grave injustice.

Mirena's soft beauty coupled with her sob story and Emmah's halo all contributed to her white washing and she

won the heart of the king's widowed brother who married her in a grand wedding fit for nobility.

All this of course fattened up Emmabh's identity even more, she went from a woman with unknown roots to the

daughter of a prince.

Before getting married, there were sdisasters that Sigrid wanted to take care of, like this one. The sooner

Mirena was removed from the their home, the better.

"Duchess, pardonfor interrupting but if we do not hurry the lady will miss the auspicious tfor the

wedding." Lanai interjected into the conversation.

They were not talking anyway, all of them were thinking about what Sigrid had said. Thad really moved fast

however and the sun had cup, the wedding was to be held in two hours time, followed by festivities, a

banquet and then the couple would set off for Stormwind castle.

"We can discuss this next time, perhaps we we should have a talk with Mirena first." Iryne suggested.

"No."

The duchess and Sigrid both responded at the stime, rejecting the suggestion strongly.

"Lanai go and take Mirena further away." Sigrid ordered. After ten seconds, she grabbed her grandmother's

hands and said, "Grandmother, you need to get rid of her or else someone will take advantage of this matter to

ruin my reputation later. How many of these noble families are waiting for an opportunity to send their daughters

to Roland's bed and win his favor?

| paid a very large price to make the king decree that he cannot have a secondary wife and many nobles are

unhappy.

If they cannot have their daughters take up the position of secondary wives the only option they have is to get

rid of me, the main and only wife. Any negative information they can get on our family, however small is a

weapon."

Deanna nodded, as did the duchess but Iryne was a little skeptical.

"Grandma, after my wedding, assemble everyone on the estate, especially the servants on this list and let them

all go. Start with Mirena, make sure that you mention her child, tell her that you are letting her go so that she

can enjoy the rest of her days with her daughter.

Give them a house, a small cottage somewhere and be sure to mention the orphanage and how you have been

taking care of her daughter. Do not mention the father of the child, it will be best if people speculate about that

matter and draw their own conclusions.

If the story comes to light later, everyone that was present at her termination will testify as a witness to your

kindness to the mother and daughter."

Duchess Mila was no fool, all the reasons Sigrid laid out for her made a lot of sense. Their family had given up

the salt mines to secure Sigrid's marriage. It would not be worth the sacrifice if it was ruined.

She was even more impressed by the way Sigrid was articulately and cleverly laying out a plan. When she heard

about how Sigrid had talked the king into granting their family a death free medal, she had skeptical but now,

she was convinced. Indeed, marriage made changed of women, and in Sigrid, the changes were good.

Her granddaughter needed to be more cunning than a fox to survive the cunning nature of the royal family.

"What about the rest of the servants? Should | compensate them too?" she asked.

Sigrid nodded. "But make sure that they receive less than Mirena and do not give them any houses. You can

plant a few of the loyal ones among them to express their dissatisfaction of Mirena's special treatment.

She has created an image of innocence all these years, we need to turn it into one of cunning. The more they

resent her, the better for us.

People will be suspicious when we let go of thirty servants at the stso in their place, hire new ones,

younger ones whose minds have not been infected with rumors and presumptions about our family.

We should also hire more farm hands, | met a business man at the Eastern boarder that gavesnew

seeds which have never been planted in Eldoria. | think we should grow them and see what surprises they can

bring us.

The emperor is very suspicious of our family, our military might makes him wary. If we take up part tfarming

and give up sof our military power, he is bound to relax."

Sigrid got off the bed and stretched her arms.

"lI am ready to get married now, mother helpprepare."

The three ladies got up, Deanna left first to start working on tracking down the servants on the list while Iryne

and Mila stayed behind to help Sigrid dress up.

Having maids assist her when she was taking her bath was new to her but she did not stop them, when one was

in Rome, they had to do as the Romans did.

After her bath, Sigrid was helped into her wedding dress which was a long flowing white gown that had been

tailored and changed in the last two days.

Sigrid opted to design her hair personally, choosing to do a slightly messy bun with a few escaped locks of hair

trailing at the front neatly.

Instead of a veil, she chose a floral crown which was made from white flowers with a little green here and there.

It was a little more modern without being too modern to cause alarm and grab the notice of Emmah, alarming

her to the presence of another transmigrator.

"So, what do you think?" she whirled around in a single elegant move.
