The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress-Chapter 300: Roland was given bad advice.

Bringing with him all the fury he was carrying after being told off by Mauve, Roland found Lord Aberdon and punched the man suddenly.

Sir Rudbeck pulled Roland away from the noble Lord. Lord Aberdon was one of Roland’s new advisors, from the council of the king’s advisors.

Lord Evermore stepped in front of Lord Aberdon. His hands were up in a defensive maneuver, ready to stop the crown prince from pummeling a noble lord into the ground.

"Roland, calm down." Sir Rudbeck urged in a deep bellow.

Roland threw his friend off and tried to leap at Lord Aberdon. Galen threw himself into Roland’s arms instead hugging him tightly. "Brother, beating up a high ranking noble lord at a time like this is not a good idea."

"I said that I did not want to interact with Keeley Valerius. He insisted that I just act friendly and soothe the feelings of that old bastard Sir Valerius. Look where that has landed me now. My wife won’t speak to me...."

"I thought that you two were not on speaking terms." Galen jumped in like a fool, bringing up a true fact at the wrong time.

"Shut up Galen." Sir Rudbeck growled. He turned to the other knights that had gathered and shouted out an order, "Remove Lord Aberdon from the royal castle. Take him to see the lord mage and make sure that he doesn’t leave his house for a week at least or else I cannot guarantee his safety."

"You dare!" Roland barked.

"Move." Galen barked.

He had barely shouted the order when Roland threw him off and once again headed for Lord Aberdon like a quarterback. Lord Evermore, like a line backer, tackled Roland from behind. Roland fell down and then Galen and Rudbeck threw themselves on top of him to keep him from moving.

To prevent him from chanting any spells, Galen put his hand over Roland’s mouth.

"Say one word and I will stuff your mouth with my smelly socks." He threatened.

"Or he will spit on you." Rudbeck quickly warned.

"In the mouth." Lord Evermore added.

The disgusting threat was so successful that Roland stopped fighting them completely.

At any other time, the scene could have been comical but at the moment, it was not as everyone was too concerned about the crown prince murdering a noble lord.

After Lord Aberdon’s successful removal from the premises, Roland premises, the men let go of Roland. None was too eager to stand, they remained on the ground, arms spread out, looking at the sky.

Galen felt uncomfortable looking at the sky, what had happened was still too fresh in his mind. "I will never get the image of those swords raining down out of my mind."

"That is because you have not been to war." Rudbeck told him. "We once fought a mage that used a spear as his weapon. He could divide his single spear into a thousand. He gave me the nasty scar I have on my ass."

"Can I see?" Galen asked.

"I would rather not see Rudbeck’s ass or talk of it." Roland said. "I just need to know if any of you has any good advice for me on how I can win back my wife. She has moved out of the castle. She even took her chubby horse. That is the sign that she is very serious about this."

"A horse!!" Lord Evermore exclaimed.

"It is to Sigrid what dogs are to Roland." Galen felt the need to mention this. "In this matter, if we are allowed to assign blame, you get it all Roland. I warned you as soon as Mauve told me that you gave the breakfast your wife personally cooked for you to the servants."

"I did no such thing." Roland spit out harshly.

"She saw you." Galen responded strongly, defending his girlfriend for she was no liar.

Roland cursed silently. "I changed the plate and put the food the cook had sent on it. That is the food I gave to the servants. This whole thing is a misunderstanding. I am going to kill Aberdon. Mauve accused me of flirting with Keeley Valerius! Did you see me flirting with her?"

"You are blaming the wrong man. This is all your fault Roland." Rudbeck said.

All heads turned to him. Lord Evermore even sat up to look at Rudbeck as he explained why Roland was to blame for all of it.

Rudbeck also decided to sit up as he explained himself. "When you first started this so called cold war with the crown princess I warned you. Silence between a couple should last only one day, two maximum. If it exceeds then uglier emotions creep in, pride takes root and suddenly nobody wants to give in first. You were lucky in your case that the crown princess still put aside her emotions and tried to talk to you and yet you still felt the need to punish her for a while."

"Is that the pride you are talking about?" Galen asked.

Rudbeck nodded. "And then you decided to share your worries with us and Lord Aberdon. You told us that you wanted to know if Sigrid really loves you. Lord Aberdon suggested that you make her jealous. I believe that it is for that reason that he invited Keeley Valerius to the courtyard when her old man showed up.

Your first crime in the eyes of your wife was not excusing yourself the moment Keeley approached you. The second crime was laughing at her jokes and the third was teaching her archery when she pretended not to know it.

For fucks sake, she is a Valerius, they start training in swords and archery while in the wombs of their mothers. As soon as they learn to walk, they are handed swords and weapons."

"I was being gracious." Roland defended himself.

"Well I hate to be the one defending you but I am going to say something that most of you here are going to hate." Lord Evermore chimed in. "Roland is practically the emperor now, he does not need to explain his actions to anyone. He can flirt with any woman as he wishes and nobody will say a word."

"That depends on who his wife is. When my wife is jealous, she pinches my waist and calls me a block head and that is the end of the matter. When we return victorious from wars, I accept handkerchiefs from maidens but before I go home, I throw them away to avoid misunderstandings." Rudbeck laughed. "Our crown prince is married to the most powerful female mage in the empire. If he pisses his wife off she can bury all of us alive. That bird she rides has the ability to split the earth and send men to their death. If he wants to take another woman, I advice him to think twice."

"I don’t want another woman!" Roland exploded in anger.

His slammed his hands on the ground and a burst of energy from his palms ripped the palm trees in the courtyard out of the ground.
