I'll Abandon the Fake Savior (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 22
“His Royal Highness Crown Prince Benjamin Ludwig Offenhide enters!”
Amidst a grand fanfare, the guest of honor of tonight’s banquet finally made his appearance. Yuricien, who had been leaning on the railing and gazing beyond the garden, hurriedly returned to the Hydrangea Hall.
‘To attend as the clan head’s representative and then leave my seat unattended for so long!’
No matter how shocking her conversation with Heathcliff had been, public duty and personal matters must remain distinct. Yuricien quickly slipped into the crowd of nobles and waited for the crown prince to appear through the wide-open doors.
“We finally get to see His Royal Highness.”
“It truly took quite a while.”
“Now that he’s returned, he’s surely here to stay, isn’t he?”
While clapping along with the nobles’ welcoming applause, Yuricien suddenly thought:
‘But… wasn’t my marriage a public matter?’
Could the marriage of a Windsor princess ever truly be private?
Yuricien decided to reexamine once more why she so strongly resisted marrying Marquis Hopgrand.
The first reason was that Kendali had orchestrated this marriage. If Yuricien married another man and ceased to be a Windsor, the house of Windsor would belong entirely to Kendali and her daughter. Yuricien could not simply stand by and allow that.
‘But now… that’s been resolved.’
Though he’d lost his memory, Jorgen had returned; though declared missing, he had divorced Kendali. In a society where divorce was frowned upon, Jorgen had dared to do it.
In other words, even if Yuricien married Marquis Hopgrand, the house of Windsor would not collapse.

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.”
