Madam and the Stable Keeper (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 130
“Surely the Emperor didn’t summon Edith out of some other interest in her?”
Patricia posed the question to Elizabeth, who trailed behind her. Though this walk was meant to calm her anger, her thoughts kept spiraling, one after another.
Elizabeth swallowed a laugh inwardly and offered her own answer.
“That… I’m not quite sure. Even Viscount Portrion, after all, saw Edith’s appearance and spent a fortune to buy her despite his limited means.”
Hearing Elizabeth’s anxious-sounding reply, Patricia grew even more disturbed.
She hadn’t yet realized that Elizabeth had deliberately given a suggestive answer meant to unsettle her.
“True. If she managed to tempt Viscount Lexion, how difficult could it be to catch the Emperor’s eye?”

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…
