A Fallen Holy Knight Is Obsessed With Me (12 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 122
Odette’s method of sneaking into the Imperial Palace wasn’t much different from the tactics Kasha and Lion had used.
She’d hidden herself among the goods being delivered by the Tyroite Trading Company to the palace, and happened to run into a palace knight she already knew. After pressuring him, she learned that Simon had entered the Crown Prince’s quarters.
“I… also found out you were in this room thanks to that knight. When I threatened him, he willingly arranged for me to get in.”
“Threatened him?”
“Well… we used to associate with each other before, so I know quite a few of his dirty little secrets. If I were to start running my mouth, he’d be kicked out of the knights’ order immediately.”
Odette’s eyes glistened faintly as she spoke, a flicker of the old venom briefly flashing across her expression. Strangely, Kasha felt reassured seeing that familiar look.
She had no desire to pity someone like Odette—and of course, Odette herself would rather die than accept pity from Kasha.
At that moment, Odette glanced cautiously at Kasha and spoke.
“Um… that knight also said, if you have any requests for His Highness the Crown Prince, you should go ahead and tell him…”
“…? What do you mean by that?”
“Well, I’m not entirely sure either… But he implied that today, just for this one day, His Highness would grant you anything you asked for.”
“…….”
Kasha was speechless, her mouth snapping shut in disbelief.
She had a rough idea of what the knight meant.
Apparently, the Crown Prince had been so consumed by lust that he’d dragged numerous women into the palace and toyed with them.
After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.

After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
I take it back, put him and crown prince on the execution block.
No one will be admiring you. Your ending in behind bars
Oh nice she finally found it. What a journey it was.
