Seducing the Tyrant Instead of My Favorite (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 22
Nikolai regretted it.
Looking back, dragging Franz into this had been cowardly.
Though it was to keep watch over Douglas, the boy was far too young to be used as a spy.
“Leave it to me!”
Franz wanted to prove himself at all costs.
He was desperately, heartbreakingly earnest.
Nikolai had always told his half-brother it was fine, hoping to ease his discomfort.
That very attitude might have deepened Franz’s insecurity about not being the legitimate crown prince.
‘Elizabeth said to observe carefully and consider things from his perspective.’
Following her advice, Nikolai gazed deeply into Franz’s jade-green eyes.
When he met that fervent, sparkling gaze, he realized just how much he had longed for that very light.
“Count on you, Pinch. You’re… the only one I can trust.”
The only one he could trust!
It was something Nikolai would never normally say aloud.
“Please trust only me, Your Majesty!”
After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”

Hahaha, wow, Elizabeth is totally blowing it up and doesn’t care at all.
Oh my God, poor emperor! What is this tomb flower? Why is this wolf with him?
What a pathetic emperor! I hate Douglas; how repulsive he is, feigning kindness before Elizabeth.

Hmm, I think the emperor has many enemies who want to overthrow him.
