Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 179
It was somewhat impulsive of the Cardinal to summon his youngest daughter to his study instead of his eldest son. He was in the mood for idle chatter, and his son was clearly not in the mood to oblige. Yet, his youngest daughter happened to be right before him.
The Cardinal sat down, poured himself a single measure of grappa into a wide glass—just enough to coat the bottom—and held it in his hand.
Had it been his eldest son sitting before him, he would have poured two glasses, but it somehow felt awkward to offer such a strong liquor to his now youngest daughter.
Ariadne, as if it were second nature, handed her father a glass of lukewarm water—the same manner she had learned serving drinks to Regent Cesare during the day. The Cardinal, wondering where his young daughter had picked up such habits, diluted the potent liquor with the warm water.
“The King has declared he won’t sponsor the Third Crusade, apparently.”
The Cardinal muttered a mild curse under his breath, something along the lines of “What a tightwad,” then took a sip of grappa. Ariadne’s eyes widened.
“Then what do you intend to do with the heavy cavalry already stationed at the border?”
“I don’t know. And it’s not just the heavy cavalry anymore—they say infantry units are now being reinforced as well.”
Ariadne’s expression grew increasingly grim. This was bad.
“Does that mean we’re now relying solely on Prince Alfonso’s diplomatic skills in the Kingdom of Galico?”
“If Marquis Valdesar hasn’t secretly sold some brilliant new plan he’s been hiding from me in Palazzo Carlo, then yes, that’s exactly what it means.”
The Cardinal shook his head slowly.
“As far as I can see, there’s no way out of this. I truly can’t fathom what the King is thinking.”
While the Cardinal sighed over the state of the realm, even resorting to drinking in broad daylight, Ariadne quietly reflected on how this life differed from her previous one.
In her past life, Pope Leo III had summoned Cardinal de Mare for aid roughly half a year from now.
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
Synopsis:
Meng Huan, a scumbag who has dated countless girlfriends, transmigrates to a female-dominated country.
Day 1: Whether it’s female dominance or not doesn’t matter. The beauties here are passionate and amorous. Isn’t it easier to date them than in modern times?
Day 2: After a night, Meng Huan discovers the differences in the female-dominated world. Men here actually have chastity locks and menstrual cycles. This hinders his ability to perform, damn it!
Day 3: What’s wrong with sleeping around? I don’t want you to marry me. I’m meant to be a playboy. I don’t care about male virtues… What? You want to drown me in a pig cage? Marry, I’ll marry!
Day N: Meng Huan inexplicably vomits and receives the shocking news of his life… He’s pregnant.
