Reforming the Villain Family (5 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 206
“I, too, deeply agree that we must be concerned about the security of the Empire.”
Duke Crustel, who had thus far merely observed the situation in silence, finally spoke up.
“That is precisely why I believe even more strongly that the vacant Imperial throne must be filled by someone with legitimate authority, not merely a regent. A regent is just a regent—not the Emperor, is that not so?”
This was a clear declaration of support for Elijah. The most powerful among those who had maintained neutrality had now shifted sides.
This fact sent shockwaves through the ranks of ministers who still hadn’t made up their minds.
Yet they were not the sort to back down so easily. With the imperial throne now empty, this was a perfect opportunity—one that would never come again. Their first and final chance to seize power.

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…
