Latil thought she didn’t need to step in for such a matter, so she gestured to Sernaught, ‘Investigate those two and then tell me,’ and tried to go the other way.
But at that moment. She heard the voice in the servant’s head who was caught while watching the net.
[What should I do? If I am investigated, I’ll end up telling all sorts of stories! If I end up revealing ‘that incident’, I might die! I’d rather admit the truth than talk about that incident!]‘Seems like he has some kind of weakness?’
Latil was watching Sernaught and the captain of the guard trying to scold the scribe and the servant, but eventually turned around and stopped them.
“No, that’s okay. I’ll just continue.”
That seemed faster. If she could get the other party to spill the truth with just a few words, there was no need to waste time and mental energy torturing them.
Sernaught quickly stepped aside.
The captain of the guard also relaxed the force in his eyes that had been fully concentrated when the emperor intervened and made room.
Not only that. The captain of the guard looked at Latil with curious eyes.
The interrogation ability of Emperor Latrasil was famous for being outstanding. But when Emperor Latrasil interrogated someone, she went in alone and came out alone.
Latil did this to make the most of her ‘mindreading ability’, but people didn’t know that.
So, the guards occasionally made bets on what Emperor Latrasil’s interrogation method would be.
But now that Emperor Latrasil was going to interrogate right here, they became curious about how she would do it.
Whether they were thinking the same thing, the other guards, who had been standing with a stoic expression, also stared fervently at Latil.
Then, when Latil raised the servant’s chin with both hands and smiled chillingly, the captain of the guard unknowingly admired her. The threatening smile seemed good enough to be a textbook for intimidation.
In fact, the servant was already trembling just by meeting eyes with Latil. Of course, it would be more difficult to find someone who would be okay when they met eyes with the emperor in this situation.
“Shall I tell you the situation you fear the most?”
When Latil muttered coldly, the guards collectively focused on Latil’s eyes and mouth.
How will our emperor open the mouth of that man? She won’t torture him at the banquet, will she? Seeing Emperor Latrasil’s cold expression, the knights’ hearts pounded.
Will we see the ruthless figure who executed his halfsiblings as soon as he took power here!
“15 years ago…….”
When Latil muttered low as if she was reading the introduction of a horror novel, the soldiers swallowed their dry saliva.
’15 years ago!’
They didn’t know why the start of the threat began 15 years ago, but the fact that they couldn’t guess meant that a more terrifying threat would surely come out. The soldiers were terrified at the thought.
As Latil’s lips slowly opened again, the soldiers’ pupils grew little by little.
And the thing that sprang out of her mouth, what the other party was most afraid of……
“You thought your sisterinlaw proposed to you?”
A shameful history.
‘Huh?’
‘Proposal?’
The soldiers had prepared themselves to tense up, but looked at Latil. Everyone thought they had heard something wrong for a moment.
‘Crazy, what did she say?’
Latil also spat out an expletive after saying her words. It was because Latil, too, had read the servant’s mind directly who thought that the situation was getting stretched out.
Latil curled up one side of her mouth and laughed menacingly, the soldiers thought they must have misheard something. No one thought that Latil was forcibly maintaining this expression.
But once things had come to this point, Latil could not back down either. Moreover, as much as it was in this way, this was clearly the secret the servant feared the most.
Latil, having steeled herself, maintained a dignified expression and nailed it one more time.
“Even accepted it, did you?”
People, in their confusion, alternated their gaze between Latil and the servant. Latil still had a coldblooded expression. The servant was also truly suffering.
“How did Your Majesty find out about… my sisterinlaw absolutely did not tell…”
‘A plot twist!’
‘Is it true?’
Latil, like a villain, laughed quietly and threatened the servant by twisting his head.
“What will happen when your wife and brother learn this secret? Your wife will want to break your head and use it as a bowl. Your brother will mock you every time he sees you, ‘the one who got dumped by my wife’. Your parents will know about this as well, your nephews will look at you and say ‘the uncle who got dumped by our mom’…”
“Ah! Stop! Please, stop it!”
The soldiers were confused. Latil’s way of threatening was not the terror they thought, so they didn’t know how to interpret it.
But it was clear that the servant was truly afraid.
“Not that! Please, not that!”
“Then tell me.”
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
