The weather was hot and sunny. As Klein was sulking alone in his room, the attendants and Aksian forced the prince outside to improve his mood.
“Why don’t you take a walk in the garden?”
“Prince, being shut in here isn’t helping anyone. If you’re inside, you won’t even be visible to the Emperor.”
But while they were barely able to coax the prince outside for a leisurely walk along the doughnutshaped building, wouldn’t you know, Guesta appeared walking towards them with his servant.
They say enemies often meet on a single log bridge, and so did Klein and Guesta, encountering each other on a single path.
Since their entrance into the palace, their relationship had been poor, so not only Klein and Guesta, but even their servants exchanged stiff glances.
“Move.”
Fortunately, this time Klein didn’t have the strength to fight Guesta, he wearily spoke and gestured with his hand.
“Go away.”
Of course, while he had less energy than usual, his words were still harsh. But Guesta neither moved nor disappeared.
“I heard that the Emperor went to see you, Klein, but left in less than 5 minutes…… Klein, you look unwell. Is it because of that……?”
Rather than doing so, Guesta ripped open a fresh wound with his creeping voice, and the veins on Klein’s forehead began to throb.
“What?”
“But…… However, Klein is very handsome, so the Emperor will surely come to you soon. Don’t be too disappointed.”
Then, Guesta consoled as if trying to comfort, quickly sidestepping. His voice was soft and gentle, but to Klein, it sounded as terrible as the scratch of chalk on a chalkboard.
The precarious rope in Klein’s mind had already snapped.
“Is this bastard mocking me!”
[This is the time separator]Latil, who came to the harem to ask Tasir about the black magician, let out a short hollow laugh at the unbelievable sight she saw.
“Is that troublemaker really…… a demon?”
Klein was pulling at Guesta’s hair, and Guesta seemed to be on the verge of having his neck ripped out instead of just his hair being pulled.
Guesta’s servant cum guard, Tri, was screaming and trying to pull Klein off, but he was being blocked by Klein’s guard Aksian, and couldn’t even touch Guesta’s robes.
“Prince, no, Prince, hit him where it can’t be seen!”
Klein’s guard was only advising his master not to hit him in public, but was not of much help.
“Klein!”
When Latil raised her voice coldly, then finally the five people quickly separated from each other.
Everything was piling up and giving Latrasil Valertain Tarium, or Latil, a headache as well. However, when Prince Klein, the annoying younger brother of her exboyfriend, came and caused a ruckus, Latil became very angry.
She did not openly express her anger like Klein, but her gaze was colder than usual.
“Guesta Rhodes, take your master away.”
It seemed she couldn’t insult Klein in front of Guesta, so Latil first ordered Guesta and his servant.
As soon as the empress commanded, Tris quickly supported Guesta and moved him somewhere else. Once they were out of sight, Latil asked Klein in a cold voice.
“Do you lack restraint? What are you doing where everyone can see? Why are you tearing at other people’s heads?”
“But that snakelike thing made fun of me!”
“Then play along! Entertain with your mouth, not with your fists!”
“But I…!”
“If you can’t do that, then leave. I’ve taken in a harem, not a group of buffoons. I don’t need buffoons like you. Pack your things and go back to your country right now.”

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.”
