“Even if I were a knight of the enemy country, are you saying you don’t regret saving me?”
“Of course. I know. You will reward peace, Sir Enoch. No matter the size.”
(This is a time delimiter.)
“Your Majesty, you are too late. Do you know how worried we were! Are there no other injuries?”
That day, Kun returned from the foolish Enoch to the ruler of the empire.
As soon as Kun arrived at his tent, the knights guarding the place approached.
The knights’ eyes were shining brightly. It seemed they thought their lord had accomplished his mission.
Unfortunately, he could not fulfill their desires. Moreover, he had to deliver the disappointing news.
“The mission failed.”
“……Yes?”
“Moreover, I’m ending the war.”
The knights’ expressions were dull. As if Kun had said something obvious.
“I will declare a truce with the enemy country.”
Kun opened his mouth again to clear their misunderstanding. Only then did the knights begin to be shocked.
Suddenly the inside went quiet. Kun, who had been sitting alone, looked around the empty tent.
The knights who had filled the tent, looking discontented with their lord’s decision, left, drained of energy.
The knights were strongly opposed, as Kun had expected. There was no reason to declare a truce when success was right in front of them.
Then the knights tried hard to persuade Kun, but he did not give in.
‘I won’t be understood.’
Before leaving the tent, the looks in their eyes were clear. The pupils that always shone with admiration were only dry then.
Strange reactions scared Kun.
He was an unfamiliar ruler who was used to being hated.
As a child, he lost his parents suddenly and was crowned, receiving a lot of contempt. Reactions always followed him, questioning what a crown prince who had just come of age could do.
He sweated a lot to stand up, as if to prove himself, and saw a lot of blood.
Also, he worked to be perfect not only as a knight but also as an emperor.
He eradicated corrupt officials from the root and created a clean imperial court.
He promoted only ability, and if there was a proper vessel, regardless of status, he gave the opportunity to enter the imperial knight’s corps.
On the contrary, he donated business support money to the aristocrats who had lost their nobility, allowing them to continue their own strengths. This also facilitated smoother exchanges with other countries.
He satisfied everyone by creating a fair system for both the imperial citizens and the aristocrats.
Thus, Kun Preeheid was recognized. Within the empire, he became an extraordinary emperor, so much so that no one could disparage him.
But what he is about to do now will not be a mere mistake. He would have to bear enormous losses on the subject he himself started.
Kun’s dream was to unify the vast continent, and Balront Kingdom would be the stepping stone.
A state closest to the empire, and not so weak an entity. A place optimized for minimalization of force, yet serving as a prime example.
Kun planned to announce the beginning of imperial unification by subjugating the Balront Kingdom.
Everyone dissuaded the emperor, calling it nonsense, but they fully supported him at the word to trust his ability.
“If you give up, you’ll look ridiculous.”
If he fails, the emperor’s plan will remain but a vain dream. Who would continue to support the plan if he tasted defeat from the beginning?
“You might have to hear those wriggling things you hated to listen to again.”
Not only that, the emperor’s status will crumble if the mission fails, and the hardearned public sentiment will collapse.
But he wants it even if he has to give up everything.
That mesmerizing mirage, just once.
“He’s mad…….”
It seems like my whole life will be happy if I have just that.
“You’re in love. Kun Preeheid.”
What does it matter if the world turns its back on me if I can hold that woman in my hand?
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.
