I Will Live for Your Death (20 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 190
Though it hadn’t been an extravagant event, Ilyd collapsed into the carriage the moment she climbed in, utterly exhausted, barely able to lean her body against the seat.
They had only invited a minimal protocol delegation and a few reporters, yet crowds had gathered anyway, having heard rumors and come to gawk. Had there always been this much interest? Or had people simply never expressed it until now?
‘Does Your Imperial Majesty believe Melphiram is innocent?’
A reporter pushed through the crowd and asked this. It was less a question and more a trap. If she declared outright innocence here and now, it would likely cause serious complications later.
Should the investigative committee fail to properly uncover the truth, her answer would be used as grounds for censure or to seize leverage against her.
Yet before Ilyd could even reply, jeers erupted from various corners of the crowd.
‘Sir reporter, are you really asking something so obvious! Don’t press Her Majesty with pointless questions!’
‘Melphiram is innocent! The committee must prove the innocence of the Melphiram comital house!’
‘Justice for those unjustly sacrificed!’
Judging by the atmosphere, a full-blown riot seemed imminent. Ilyd stepped forward first and curtly dismissed the question.
‘I trust the investigative committee will reveal the truth.’
Now, they needed to locate those connected to the incident, record their testimonies, and persuade them to appear as witnesses if a trial were ever held. For now, the committee decided to start by tracking down their whereabouts.
Ilyd recalled her private safe.
Inside the long-empty vault wasn’t jewelry, gold, or any physical asset—but a paper bearing Limres’s testimony. The very document Rivel had barely managed to smuggle out after Tamil’s death. Bloodstains, like tears, dotted the page.
What Limres had written amounted to little more than a collusion between Claudius, the nobles, and Tamil.
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!

This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”
