Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 398
Bianca’s letter was not long.
The Princess of Taranto briefly explained that Lucrezia’s former nurse, whom Ariadne had originally instructed her to pursue, was already deceased and thus could not provide any useful leads.
However, new witnesses had emerged who could prove both Lucrezia’s infidelity and that Ippolito was not the Cardinal’s biological son.
She concluded the letter with a tidy final line:
“If you return to San Carlo, dear sister, I’ll send the new witnesses and the evidence I’ve gathered over to you—please contact me anytime!”
Ariadne smiled faintly.
‘Well done!’
It was a noble’s official correspondence—flawless by any standard.
When Bianca returned to Taranto, Ariadne had encouraged her to personally handle at least part of her domain’s administration. The young princess had faithfully followed that advice.
She had taken over a portion of the estate management previously entrusted entirely to Viscount Gennaroso, and it seemed her performance had been quite commendable.
What once resembled a childish private note from the Princess of Taranto now clearly bore the hallmarks of a proper official letter.
But Ariadne’s momentary satisfaction over Bianca’s rapid improvement quickly gave way to focus on the letter’s contents.
‘Finally!’
Exposing Ippolito’s true parentage to the Cardinal had been Ariadne’s long-awaited goal ever since Lucrezia’s death. At last, she could drive that despicable leech out of the family.
She estimated how long it would take. If she dispatched the fastest courier to Taranto immediately, it would take about a week to arrive and another week to return.

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
