in the name of the queen.

Chapter 315 Is the letter forged?

Sitting in the carriage heading to the Queen's Palace, Lisa frowned, unable to hide her anxiety.

She hadn't received a letter from Roland for more than a month.

This is not normal.

Even if Roland was very busy, he would at least write a simple letter to let everyone know he was safe.

What is he busy with? He is too lazy to write a letter?
If he just didn't write to her, Lisa would just laugh at herself, but she heard that Roland hadn't written to Queen Sylph for more than a month.

Roland and Sif have only been in a relationship for a short time, why are they so distant from each other, like an old married couple who have been married for many years?

Lisa was really a little flustered.

Although Roland and Sif had made an engagement so that she could drink to calm her emotions, she knew it was part of the plan.

Only if Sif accepts Roland first can she accept herself who is inseparable from Roland.

However, things seem to have changed recently.

She didn't know whether Roland's going to Jinyuan Country to help was planned or an accident, but Roland's current situation must have been an accident.

Lisa, who was frustrated because she encountered a bottleneck in her magic practice, simply walked out of the laboratory and came to Sylph to discuss countermeasures.

Unconsciously, she had put herself and Sif on the same front.

Sif didn't seem surprised when Lisa stood in the doorway.

She stood up to greet him, asked the maid to bring tea and snacks to Lisa, and asked her to sit down.

"Ms. Lisa, long time no see. Are you doing well at the Magic Association?"

It’s been a long time indeed.

They haven't seen each other for more than two months.

Although Lisa was anxious, she still kept smiling, "Thanks to your majesty, I'm fine."

Before Lisa could continue, Sif interrupted softly, "It's Sif, not Your Majesty."

The corners of Lisa's lips rose slightly, and her originally depressed mood improved a little.

Although it was for Roland's sake, Sif was willing to treat her as a basically equal.

This was a good start, and she certainly wouldn't refuse.

"Okay, Miss Sif, I'm fine, but you look a little busy."

The mountain of documents before Sif didn't lie.

"It's OK. The cabinet has already done most of the work. I'm only responsible for signing. But the recent coalition with the Golden Kite Nation is a bit complicated, so I have to worry about it."

Sif casually circled a document and put it aside.

Drawing circles was the way she learned to sign from Roland.

First of all, signing is fast, and secondly, drawing a circle is also a kind of attitude.

If she is very satisfied with the handling solutions of some things, she will give positive affirmation such as "I have read it, please execute it immediately".

There are also some things that Sif has her own ideas about, and she will write something like "Read, suggestion XX, please consider it appropriately" on the document.

The word "please" is a sign of respect to the cabinet ministers, not a real request. If the emperor asks you to do something, you'd better do it immediately.

If someone remains indifferent, they will have to face Sif's questioning next.

Fortunately, there is no such tactless person in the cabinet.

There is also another type of opinion that recognizes but does not fully agree with the proposal, but due to lack of professionalism cannot provide constructive suggestions, so the cabinet ministers are reminded to consider it carefully by circling the proposal.

The circled documents can be handled directly according to the content of the document, or they can be slightly modified. Sif drew a circle to hand over the initiative to the cabinet and let them decide for themselves.

After circling the document, Sif rang the bell to call the Secretary of State and asked her to take the reviewed document back to the cabinet for execution.

After watching the Secretary of State leave, Sif breathed a sigh of relief, and her expression changed from stern and serious to a smile.

"Government affairs are now taken care of, and now it's personal time."

Sif sat down opposite Lisa and asked with a smile, "Ms. Lisa, because of Roland, we will be a family from now on. You must have something to ask me, so you might as well just say it."

The term family made Lisa's cheeks blush slightly, but she knew that Sif must have been talking about her being Roland's sister and becoming a family.

"Sif, are you and Roland getting along well lately? I haven't received a letter from him for two months, and I'm a little worried."

Unable to think of any tactful way to break the deadlock, Lisa simply went straight to the point and expressed her concern from the perspective of an older sister.

"We are fine. But I haven't received a letter from him for more than a month. In the last letter, he just said a few casual greetings and didn't write much. He must be really busy."

Thinking of this, the expression on Sif's face changed from sunny to cloudy.

Seeing Sif's expression change, Lisa also felt a little depressed.

Oh no, Roland couldn't possibly be so addicted to the gentleness of the romantic girl from the Kingdom of Jin Yuan that he couldn't extricate himself.

Although Sif's charm is irresistible, men like novelty. Having just tasted the beauty of a woman's gentle embrace, it is also difficult for them to resist temptation outside.
Not normal at all!
What would Sif think if Roland was really seduced?
Seeing Sif's somewhat flustered eyes, Lisa secretly regretted that perhaps she should not have come to Sif, but should have discussed it with Roland first.

She was surprised to find that in some ways, she would rather stand on the side of Sif than Roland.

Now that she was here, she couldn't just turn around and leave, so Lisa had to come up with Plan B.

"Sif, do you want to bring something to Roland? I want to go to the Kingdom of Golden Kite recently. I haven't heard from this guy for a long time, so I have to go check it out."

Sif didn't say anything, just remained silent.

Seeing that she didn't care, Lisa became anxious and blurted out what she had been holding in her heart.

"Are you really not worried about him being with another woman in Jin Yuan's place?"

Lisa stopped talking halfway through, and she even regretted speaking so directly.

"Go to bed?" Sif asked calmly.

Lisa nearly fell to the ground.

This is too direct. It is somewhat strange to hear such words coming from the mouth of a noble queen.

Sif looked at Lisa calmly and asked softly, "Ms. Lisa, are you and Roland together?"

Lisa was stunned for several seconds before she realized what Sif was asking. Her already rosy cheeks instantly turned red and her tongue was almost tied in her mouth.

"Sif, what nonsense are you talking about? I am Roland's sister. We are neighbors, friends, and family, but it's not the kind of relationship you think!"

"You are not related by blood."

Sif looked at Lisa calmly and said as if nothing had happened: "Even if it is true, it is nothing. Some royal families have many blood-related marriages to ensure the purity of their bloodline."

"No, absolutely not!"

Lisa answered in panic, her heart beating wildly.

She clearly hadn't crossed the line with Roland, so why was she so flustered?

"I understand. You like Roland, but you haven't expressed it?" Sif suddenly realized.

Lisa almost fainted. She almost forgot the purpose of coming to see Sif. She was dumbfounded and wanted to defend herself, but found that she was not innocent at all.

After hesitating for a few times, Lisa couldn't say a complete sentence.

"As long as he likes it, I don't mind."

Sif's voice was calm, but each word she spoke was more explosive than the last.

Lisa looked at Sif blankly.

This was indeed the result she wanted, but when Sif really said it, she still found it absurd.

Why not? Roland is Sif's current lover, can she really accept it?
Sif motioned for Lisa to sit down and said calmly, "Ms. Lisa, the environment in which one grows up will shape one's perception of the world."

"In the world I can see, men of noble status can have many partners, and women of noble status can have many partners as long as they want. Loyalty is an exception in marriages of the upper class." "Thank you for your honesty, Lisa. At least I know that Roland was not as happy as I was before me."

The corners of Sif's lips slightly raised, revealing a smile.

"In return for this loyalty, I allow him to do some less loyal things, such as having a non-blood sister or having several lovers."

what?
Lisa's head was buzzing.

Sif was right. The environment in which a person grows up shapes their perception of the world. In her world, although her parents often quarreled, they were loyal to each other, and so were Roland's parents.

This may be the most beautiful aspect of civilian love.

But not every civilian can be loyal to love. Lisa has also seen many of her parents' peers having affairs outside of marriage.

Some people go in and out of the pink streets, and some people share the passion of the night with other people's wives.

Lisa was a little confused. What was Sif thinking?
Sif of course knew why Lisa was confused, she smiled and said:

"Lisa, you are no longer a commoner. You are an important member of the Magic Association and may become the next leader of the Magic Association in the future. Even if you are not, as Anthony's disciple, you will have a lofty status."

"You should know that love is not everything in life. Or, in other words, the more love occupies in life, the more boring that person's life will be."

"Roland's appearance is my luck, and Roland's favor is my happiness. But besides that, I hope to stand on the top of the mountain with him. This is more meaningful than a love affair."

Sif walked to the window, looked at the busy people outside, and sighed softly: "If we can't be together until the end, no matter how passionate the love is, it is not perfect."

Sif's understanding of love is very consistent with the mentality of a strong person.

For example, after being subjected to cold violence by her husband, Sophia certainly did not think of finding a lover who cared about her, but rather froze her emotions and became an absolutely strong person who was not trapped by love in the process of climbing to the top of the mountain.

Roland is an irreplaceable and important existence in Sif's life, but what is important is not love, but companionship, trust, and growing together.

Looking at Sif's slender back, Lisa suddenly had an illusion that the Lisa standing in front of her was no longer the helpless girl waiting for Roland to save her.

Standing at the window, she seemed to blend into the vibrant spring outside the window and become a part of the vitality.

Lisa sighed and smiled helplessly: "You are so open-minded, which makes me look a little narrow-minded. It seems that we don't need to go to the Golden Kite Country."

"No, Jin Yuan must go. She must go."

Sif turned to look at Lisa and said softly, "I don't want to fall behind Roland, and I also don't want anyone to hold Roland back from flying. Please help me go to Jin Yuan and find out what caused him to change in the past two months. If it's a bondage, please tell me and I'll take care of it."

Sif didn't say how to deal with it, but Lisa could probably guess.

If someone let Roland indulge in the land of tenderness, Sif would probably destroy this illusory dream with her own hands.

"As ordered!"

With Sif's approval, Lisa felt much better and even had the leisure to make jokes.

She made an exaggerated gesture of accepting orders, which made Sif smile a little more.

The two chatted for a few more sentences, and Lisa seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked:

"Sif, can you let me see the last letter Roland sent you?"

"This?" Sif instinctively wanted to refuse. Although there were not many sweet words, it was a private letter written by Roland to her after all, and she was not willing to share it with outsiders.

Well, Lisa is not an outsider, so just take a look.

With great reluctance, Sif took out an exquisite safe from under the desk, found the key reluctantly, and inserted it into the keyhole.

Seeing her awkward look, Lisa almost couldn't help laughing.

At least half of Sif's coolness just now was fake.

It would be strange if the husband, who had just gotten married, was not worried when he went on a business trip abroad and was surrounded by romantic and passionate Golden Kite girls.

It seems that Sif is still normal.

Lisa took Roland's handwritten letter from Sif and was a little curious. What did this guy write?
The first sentence just now made Lisa feel a little sad.

The letter to her began with "Sister Lisa", but the letter to Sif began with "Dear baby Sif". This is such a huge difference in treatment.

After reading the letter with bitterness in her heart, Lisa bit her lips angrily and couldn't utter a word.

You call this writing nothing?
The full text has more than a thousand words, only more than three hundred words are related to work, and the rest of the words are about expressing longing.

This is not showing affection, it's clearly spreading dog food.

Is this what a man does when he forgets his sister after getting a wife?
Seeing Lisa's changing expression, Sif was also curious, "Ms. Lisa, what did Roland write in the letter to you?"

"Nothing was written. I have burned it."

Seeing Sif's suspicious eyes, Lisa gritted her teeth and reached into her pocket. A dancing flame emerged from her palm and she burned the letter she was carrying.

To be fair, in terms of her mastery of fire magic, she has surpassed Anthony. She can burn a letter in her pocket without any heat leaking out. She is indeed a hero in burning letters.

It's a pity that Xiu'er's mother opened the door for Xiu'er, but no one appreciated her superb performance.

Looking at the ashes in Lisa's palm, Sif knew what to do and didn't ask any more questions.

How could Elisa burn Roland's letter considering her attachment to him?

Feeling the residual warmth of the ashes, even a fool would know that they were freshly burned.

It was obvious that Roland's letters to her contained much more content than those to Lisa.

Sif was in a good mood after winning again inadvertently.

However, Lisa was right across from her, and she could only try hard to hold back her laughter.

Fortunately, she is an experienced actress and generally no performance accidents will occur unless she can't help it.

Seeing how hard Sif tried to hold back her smile, Lisa felt uncomfortable but also relieved.

She could never be compared with Sif, because Sif was Roland's white moonlight.

No one can rival the white moonlight with a gentle smile falling into your arms.

Lisa was a little annoyed, but she couldn't find a way to vent her anger, so she had to continue reading the letter, trying to find something out of it.

Hard work pays off, and she really found it.

"Sif, this letter may be fake."

"What did you say, fake? That's impossible. The handwriting is clearly Roland's." Sif's eyes gradually narrowed. She would never forgive anyone who dared to forge a letter like this.

"Roland has a few spelling mistakes that other people don't know about. Look here, he always misses letters in this word, but not here."

Sif didn't say anything, but walked directly to the bookshelf.

Here is the original manuscript of the novel written by Roland himself.

She pulled out a book, flipped through it carefully, and found the same word.

Sure enough, the spelling error was just as Lisa said.

She continued to flip through the pages unwillingly and found the word again, with the same spelling error.

Obviously, Roland thought this spelling was correct, so he always wrote it that way.

Making a mistake in reading a consonant letter does not affect reading, but it will greatly affect your mood.

Sif calmly put the novel manuscript back to the bookshelf, walked to the desk, picked up a pen, and was about to write something when she found that the pen had been pinched and deformed.

She endured it again and again, but finally she couldn't bear it anymore.

"Ms. Lisa, please go to Jinyuan immediately and find this person. I will kill her with my own hands."

This was what Lisa was waiting for. She nodded and left quickly.

Watching Lisa leave, Sif's eyes showed a bit more frustration.

"Roland, where is the real letter? Would you write it like this?"
