Picked Up a Beast, Turns Out He's an Emperor (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 80
Count Corald burst into the tent, clutching a charred sheet of parchment in his hand.
He opened the leather satchel resting on the sleeping bag inside the tent and pulled out a book, flipping it open.
Carefully holding the parchment tucked between the pages in one hand, he raised it to eye level with the scorched letter in his other hand.
“Why are you doing that, Father?”
Timothy, who had followed Count Corald into the tent, asked his father, who was comparing the two letters.
A soft exclamation escaped Count Corald’s lips as he alternated his gaze between the parchments in each hand.
“Haa… She knows the ancient tongue… She actually knew it. Could this truly be fate…?”
“Who knows the ancient tongue, Father?”
Timothy asked in a tone of astonishment.
In the empire, fewer than five people were known to understand the ancient language.
Count Corald was one of them, and even the most renowned scholars who claimed some grasp of it knew only enough to resemble a child just beginning to learn how to read—barely able to piece together context from scattered known words.
Handing both parchments to his son, Count Corald replied.
His usually calm voice trembled slightly.
“Do you remember? This is the letter we found in the cave while chasing the Black Panther.”
The count’s index finger, which had been pointing to the letter he always carried tucked in his book, shifted to the parchment Timothy had just thrown into the fire.

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…
