Hyacinth fiddled with the envelope of the letter and then set it down.
‘This matter can be investigated by both sides. The matter of the harem… what now?’
The ‘average response’ Latrasil mentioned meant severing ties. If you look at it personally, it would seem ridiculous to sever ties over a single harem member, but if you look at it from the perspective of a country, it’s a denial of the emperor’s request.
Usually, wars can occur between countries with just a small spark, and there have been many wars that occurred under similar circumstances in history.
Given the situation, it was hard for Hyacinth to refuse Tarium’s demands any further in a matter involving state against state. It was hard but…
Hyacinth held his head with both hands. Although Latrasil refused his fiveyear promise and left, he had been trying to keep that promise alone all along. He wanted to resolve the situation quickly and ask Latrasil for another chance.
But how? How could he tell his beloved woman to accept another man as her consort? Moreover, his own brother?
[This is the time separator]“Klein. I’ll let you go, but remember, this is only temporary.”
In the end, after discussing with the minister for a few days, Hyacinth decided to send Klein first. However, he would go not as an official harem member but as a temporary one, and they had included a formal letter asking them to make sure of this point.
A temporary harem member, unlike an official one, wouldn’t have their child immediately recognized as a member of the royal family, and they themselves would be treated as a quasimember of the royal family, but there was the advantage that they could request a divorce from the harem at any time.
Originally, this system was brought in after seeing the difference in rank between harem members in Huayue, the origin of the harem system, but now it has almost become distorted and was often used by foreign royal harem members.
Especially when they had to go to an enemy country as a harem member, it was most often used.
“Did you understand? How many times are you repeating the same thing?”
“I’ll ask for you to be returned when the time is right…”
“I get it, brother.”
Looking at Klein, who was calm beyond belief, Hyacinth sighed.
“Tone down your temperament when you get there.”
“What’s with you worrying about me?”
“…Don’t get angry with whatever Empress Latrasil says.”
“Are you really worried about me?”
“It’s complex.”
“Are you worried about me then? Who’s the other person you’re worried about?”
“I don’t mean complex in that way, I mean, half of me is worried about you, half of me isn’t.”
Klein frowned at him, but Hyacinth did not explain in detail. Even so, he couldn’t honestly tell his brother in this situation that he was ‘jealous’.
“Klein. Just in case, remember this.”
But looking at Klein, who was grinning, Hyacinth eventually couldn’t hold back and whispered into his ear.
“You’re going temporarily, so don’t lay a finger on Empress Latrasil.”
The corner of Klein’s mouth twitched. What was his brother the emperor saying?
“What if Empress Latrasil comes to me?”
“That, won’t happen.”
“You don’t know.”
Klein grinned confidently. Empress Latrasil will probably try to kiss me the moment I get there. But he didn’t brag about this confident thought to his brother.
After all, it seemed his brother wasn’t happy about sending his younger brother to a foreign emperor as a harem member.
“I’m leaving.”
With a light smile, Klein climbed onto the lavishly decorated carriage.
Normally, it was customary to leisurely follow about a week to ten days after the departure of the harem embassy, but Klein was annoyed and decided to simply leave with the embassy.
To be more precise, he was anxious after hearing from Count Breta, the representative of the embassy, that there were many men wanting to enter our Majesty’s harem, and hence, decided to follow along.
Of course, Emperor Latrasil already loved him, but one couldn’t rule out the possibility that cunning men might wag their tails and sway her heart in his absence. He had to quickly go to the side of Emperor Latrasil and firmly block the other men.
Klein, who finished his greetings roughly, sat in the carriage like the wind. His heart was in a rush, so his body kept fluttering. However, he opened the window again and stretched his head out.
“Ah, by the way, brother.”
Hyacinth, standing with a complicated expression, turned his head.
“Why so?”
Klein looked around, stretched out his upper body a little more, and whispered into Hyacinth’s ear.
“Are you really divorcing sisterinlaw?”
Hyacinth’s face hardened. Klein awkwardly scratched his forehead.
“I know sisterinlaw and you… aren’t in good terms. But she doesn’t seem to be a weird person or anything, so why don’t you just live with her?”
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
