Long Live the Emperor, Minus Me (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 146
The news of victory from Cartian was swiftly delivered to the homeland. Langrisha, who received a letter from her “younger sister” even before the official victory report arrived, widened her eyes in astonishment.
“My goodness, she actually did it.”
Blanche had aggressively exaggerated Cartian’s provocations to justify initiating war and relayed this interpretation to Langrisha.
Though Langrisha had granted permission for Blanche to assemble a small force, agreeing with her argument that armed conflict was now inevitable and they must strike first, she never truly believed Cartian’s entire territory would fall completely into her hands.
At best, she expected Blanche to mount a strong counteroffensive against Cartian’s army and secure a favorable peace treaty.
Given the obvious disparity in national strength, even that outcome would have been impressive enough.
Yet Blanche had fulfilled her own promise—she had taken full control of Cartian.
And she had succeeded even faster than she’d indicated to Langrisha.
“This truly deserves grand praise.”
“Your Grace’s acknowledgment of Her Highness’s efforts is most gratifying.”
Tula, standing in for the absent Blanche, responded politely.
She had been assisting Langrisha in her duties during Blanche’s absence and happened to be present when the letter was opened.
“But that discussion can certainly wait until Her Highness returns. For now, Your Grace should focus on stabilizing internal affairs without undue concern.”
Internal stability. Upon hearing those words, Langrisha recalled a particular passage from Blanche’s letter.
[“I am managing things for now, but since I hold no official position, I would be most grateful if you could appoint a proper governor and send them soon. I hope I’m not overstepping my authority too severely.”]
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.”
