Yurik’s eyebrow slightly raised at Jeremy’s words.
The expression disappeared from his face in an instant.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t kill her……”
The sound of Yurik’s thick and straight fingers tapping the armrest regularly, tap, tap, was terribly clear.
“It sounds like a sin that must be paid with death?”
His speech was slow, but Yurik was urging the next words.
At least he was genuinely interested.
Jeremy’s voice softened.
“It’s not an easy task to recite the national shame as the crown prince of a country.”
“You must explain to me, nevertheless.”
“Yes, that would be the right thing to do.”
Jeremy extended his words politely.
Yurik’s attitude was still cold.
However, Jeremy knew.
When he apologized for not killing Bianca, for a moment, Yurik’s gaze mixed with faint contempt.
Yurik, the young emperor of Kartan, was as delicate and particular as he looked handsome.
What he wore now was a snowwhite Kartanian formal dress.
To travel between Termina and Kartan, one had to cross a rugged mountain range, and Yurik looked unbelievable that he had come from there.
The wrinklefree formal attire looked as if it had just been put on, and the ebonylike black hair was not disheveled at all.
A person who pursued extreme perfection.
That was Yurik.
Jeremy knew why he wanted Bianca.
The empire’s first beauty.
Some insane fool dared to compare the founding emperor, the first emperor of the empire, with Bianca.
The reincarnation of the first emperor……?
That mongrel, who resembles a perfect person like the goddess descended, except for her eyes and hair color.
One, what if you knew nothing and heard that rumor?
You would undoubtedly desire it.
But what if that perfection is gone?
Jeremy, feeling the excitement boil, lowered his eyes.
“You will know, Yurik. Empress Sabrina, who once had Bianca, originally……”
“I know.”
“It was not an easy marriage, so the emperor really cherished Empress Sabrina.”
Yurik signaled with his chin to continue.
Jeremy picked up the teacup in front of him and took a few sips.
And after hesitating for a while, Jeremy was finally able to speak again.
“Then Bianca was born.”
“And?”
Yurik quickly lost interest in what sounded like something significant but turned out to be trivial, and his tone became cold as the remaining curiosity evaporated.
But Jeremy smiled at Yurik’s appearance.
“6 months later, very healthy.”
Yurik’s angry face stiffened.
“6 months later?”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Jeremy tied his gaze to the tip of his foot to avoid eye contact even by accident.
“The child was born healthy?”
There was no one on this continent who did not know that Termina’s Emperor Eckliff ravished Sabrina Holshyr’s beauty and committed a forced marriage.
No one cared whether Holshyr’s baron had died earlier or not.
It was simply the concern of the moment that the widow, less than a year after being widowed, the new head of the Holshyr family, received the emperor’s ardent courtship.
“I have decided to become the head of the Holshyr barony. Your Highness.”
“What if you use your charity for Termina instead of Holshyr?”
The conversation between the two spread across the continent through the mouth of a bard.
The east, blocked by rugged mountains, was no exception.
Yurik sprang to his feet.
“That means!”
Jeremy bowed his head deeply at the young emperor’s furious shout.
“The emperor may know, but he does not much care about lineage.”
You will know by looking at Empress Sabrina.
The words added as if painfully were very intentional.
“Last year, while touring the southern provinces, His Majesty paid a visit, I believe. Had I kept my post then…….”
“No, no, no, wait.”
Izar’s face turned red with confusion, embarrassment, shame, and anger as he stammered on.
He wandered around the grandest sun hall of the palace several times, trying to catch his rough breath.
How much time had passed like that?
With urgent steps, he approached Jeremy again and opened his mouth.
“Wait, wait. So…… I understand.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“But what I don’t understand is, what’s the connection between not killing her and sending her to Duke Barlock?”
He’s caught.
Jeremy grinned.
This time, he didn’t hide his smile.
Rather, he fully revealed a bright expression as if pleased.
“The former Duke was executed due to discord between the Emperor and Barlock.”
“Oh my.”
“One, I couldn’t abandon the beast, so I needed a sacrifice to soothe the upset creature.”
Izar nodded silently.
It was a brief explanation, but his expression showed that he understood everything.
“But what I didn’t expect was that the beast took Bianca alive.”
“But, isn’t it natural for Princess Bianca……?”
Duke Barlock’s actions seemed understandable, and Izar’s tone was somewhat flat.
Perhaps he was recalling the fact that Bianca was the empire’s most beautiful.
Jeremy snorted softly.
This fool.
As if someone as extraordinary as Barlock would care for someone like Bianca.
Maintaining a flawless expression, Jeremy suddenly nodded.
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
