Lord Preston's Secret Tutor (47 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 105
“It’s been a while, Lord Preston.”
“I greet His Majesty the King.”
“Please be seated.”
Windsor once again did not fall into his trap. He only sat down after the King had taken his seat.
The chief steward brought tea. The King silently drank only his tea. Windsor also did not rush him, quietly bringing his own cup to his lips.
“The aroma is rich. It doesn’t seem to be tea from Mount Noyard.”
“Hmm.”
At first, he hadn’t known the taste of tea. During his naval days, he often drank tea, but only as a substitute for alcohol rather than for its flavor.
He usually gulped it down quickly once it had cooled slightly and didn’t even know the different types of tea, let alone that each variety had subtle differences in taste.
Yet, after being forced to drink tea reluctantly over time, he had gradually learned to distinguish its appearance and flavor to some degree.
The King set down his teacup and faintly furrowed his brow. He had to admit that Windsor was not the type to be rattled by silence.
“How is Benjamin doing?”
“Quite well, Your Majesty.”
“He lost both parents at such a young age—how heartbroken that child must have been! Of course, I understand Lord Preston is raising Benjamin well, but he is still at an age that needs a parent’s touch, isn’t he? Especially lacking a mother’s affection—it troubles my heart. It would have been better if Amanda had stayed by Benjamin’s side longer.”
The last sentence sounded almost like a murmur to himself. Windsor slowly turned his gaze to look at the King. The King, who had been gently stroking his full beard with the back of his hand, suddenly spoke again.
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
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. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
