As soon as she was on the list of successors to revenge, she didn’t hesitate to take up the sword and pass through the door Hayden had left open. But she didn’t swing the sword.
“I can’t guarantee it this time.”
In the prison covered with numerous mirrors, Carlos could see whatever he wanted to see as long as Hayden allowed it.
He couldn’t endure his miserable appearance reflected in the mirrors and, at the same time, learned about the people who had seen his hidden facts and, above all, kept stealing glances at Rua through the mirrors.
Even though Hayden hid Rua so well, in scenes where everyone saw, like the wedding, he didn’t bother to hide it.
The new empress, Rustica Gennus, whom Hayden loved so much, smiled happily throughout the wedding.
Rumors circulated that it was because of the emperor’s well-endowed dignity or because the empress mama was so charming that the emperor was so happy, and vice versa.
While watching the mad Carlos, Milene stood quietly for a while. She observed how much he had fallen apart, how crazy he had become, and then came out without any regrets.
The emperor said he could do whatever he wanted, but Milene didn’t see the value in it. Ethan didn’t draw his sword either and came out.
“Anyway, there’s no need to worry about that guy.”
Carlos, who once longed for an eternal empire, had ‘eternity’ taken away from him and was now being deprived of ‘power and dignity.’ He was deteriorating horribly.
Sometimes, when Ethan’s anger surged, he would go to see that guy at the emperor’s request.
Upon seeing that filthy sight, some relief came over, and it was also pitiful. Did they become like that just to shed crocodile tears in other people’s eyes? It was futile.
“What if you let it be?”
What makes the emperor so busy whipping like this? Ethan had to find out. Hayden put down his teacup and stroked his chin. The unexpected answer came after a while.
“I keep thinking I should finish it quickly so that my child won’t suffer. But there’s no child yet. I’m unnecessarily in a hurry.”
The emperor, overly wise, thought that he might be the problem, along with Rua, which could lead to another abnormally long reign.
They shouldn’t create a country that would decay without them. Rua and his child would govern the country. Excessive tranquility is also poison. Such thoughts led to more things to be done.
“Even if you organize well, not everything will be fine.”
That’s probably true. It’s pointless to say this.
“Rua doesn’t know anything about it.”
Hayden cut it off, telling him not to say anything, but Milene thought, ‘Well…’
Would Rua really not know about it?
Perseita had already put her hands on it several times while suppressing rebellion, so there was almost nothing more to do. However, the old Kaleta region had many areas to be improved.
So, Rua toured the southern region several times a week.
She suppressed those who rallied behind Carlos, showed herself directly to those who distrusted the new emperor as the empress.
Although it had not been long since she got married, it was a good thing that the new empress and a southern sage, despite being a giant presence in the south, showed herself steadily.
‘What should I do?’
Anyway, while Rua was busy with her work, she was thinking. Just like her husband, who has been busy lately.
They are newlyweds, and there is nothing lacking.
Hayden faithfully performed the role of a reliable and capable younger husband.
If there was anything lacking, it would be that he was too engrossed in work these days. Nevertheless, he stopped it cleanly when he finished work, so it was okay, but he worried about creating more work by trying to finish what he had to do in a few years.
‘Should I suggest taking a break?’
These days, both of them seem busy, and there is a lot of official business to be done.
Rua, who has been digesting official duties tremendously as the empress for the past few months, walked around the city of Catart in a daze.
Leaving the Imperial area at least to some extent, she walked freely. There was no one with the ability to harm the Southern Sage.
“Yikes…!”
So, it’s suspicious that someone makes a sound of dying as soon as they see her.
Rua immediately noticed the person trying to avoid her. Her vision, with the power of the Southern Sage, was incomparably broader than that of ordinary people.
“Mama?”
Delote, always guarding her, asked. It was a question like, ‘Should I chase them?’ Rua smiled brightly. She recognized the face of the person running away right now.
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
