Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 355
A few days ago, when Representative Caruso approached her seeking cooperation for delivering a massive blow to the high nobility, Countess Ariadne de Mare had asked him the very same thing.
“Can you cut off their air supply?”
She looked at Representative Caruso with a thoughtful gaze.
“If you provoke them but fail to eliminate them, they won’t just sit idly by.”
Ariadne voiced an utterly sensible concern. It was impossible for a mere merchant, no matter what he did, to eradicate the nobles all at once—not even the king or the pope could accomplish such a feat.
“The recent trials have thoroughly disgraced the high nobility, yet they haven’t actually lost anything.”
Since enforcement hadn’t yet occurred, their grand mansions, antiques, and ancestral heirlooms remained perfectly intact—merely marked with red tags.
“If we withdraw forced execution here, their property will revert to its original owners, making this whole affair just an exchange of measured blows. Perhaps it’s best to stop here.”
“No.”
Representative Caruso’s reply was succinct.
“We’ve already provoked them.”
He shook his head.
“You, of all people—who understand nobles so well—should know better. To them, honor is more precious than life itself. The nobility… will never forgive me.”
Ariadne had always believed honor came after life, and life after wealth, yet she had to concede that Caruso was right about certain members of the high nobility.
Representative Caruso continued calmly.
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
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…
Trigger warning: All men in this novel are yandere style.
