The answer to that is...It depends.

With some who cannot afford the travel or do not care to make the effort it
may indeed releive them.  

OTOH the Crown may feel a different responsibility to their subjects and
undertake the effort anyway.  Let me give you a specific example.  

HM Talymar of the middle believed in a period practice called "The Kings
Progress" or just "Progress".   He made sure that during his six month reign
he attended an event or populace meeting for _every_ group in the realm.
When Calontir became a principatity he said it became even more important to
make sure he made it to all the Calon locations.   IIRC he completed his
progress each time he reigned.  Quite an undertaking but it made everyone in
each place feel special.   

>Just a thought.
Good, keep at it.  If you keep asking, we all keep learning.

Tschuess,
