After Linking the Villainess and Male Lead (5 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 105
Soon after the doors closed, the conference hall, which had been in an uproar due to the Empress’s outburst, fell silent.
The Emperor, seeming to suffer a headache, frowned deeply as he pressed his fingers against his forehead.
Seeing him like this, no one dared to speak first.
They merely darted their eyes around, sizing each other up in silence.
After a brief pause, the Emperor let out a deep sigh, scanned the nobles in the chamber, and finally spoke.

“No. As Emperor of this realm, making the right judgment without being swayed by personal emotions is only natural. Moreover, as a token of apology, I have prepared gifts for both of you—I ask that you accept them.

When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem

This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
