I Possessed the Wicked Empress (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 80
Ermedilin first headed toward the imperial palace gardens.
The garden was already filled with nobles who had gathered to attend the ball.
Each dressed in pastel-toned, vibrant gowns, they looked like walking bouquets of flowers.
‘Everyone is so pretty.’
As Ermedilin slowly looked around to etch this dreamlike scene into her memory, soft music soon filled the air, and Henri and Valière made their entrance.
Traditionally, the first dance of the social season was performed by the imperial couple, but once again this year, Henri appeared alongside Valière.

Just as she was about to smile inwardly, convinced of her victory today, she spotted Ermedilin surrounded by Pelio and her maids.

Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”

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.
