“Lorisha told me that we should oppose exporting iron ore to Agael. But I answered arbitrarily!”
“This wicked thing!”
“Empress Dowager…”
“Where are you performing a play? Why are you shouting about iron ore? What do you know about it? That lowly one spouted nonsense to you, and you swallowed it. You don’t even know what you’re thinking!”
In my miserable state, I pitied Crown Princess Miliora, who was struggling for breath beside me. I had never heard a mother favoring one child so dramatically, like Empress Dowager did.
However, Crown Princess seemed determined today.
“Empress Dowager, that’s not true! Although what Lorisha said is true, you shouldn’t respond like that…”
“Then, did that wretched girl try to hide the emperor’s plan even though she knew about it? What a ridiculous thing!”
“That’s not it…!”
Crown Princess began shedding tears.
‘Just shut your mouth.’
I said that to myself, but she couldn’t hear it. Although she showed tremendous courage, I became increasingly angry.
Anyhow, it would end up like this. Why bother coming here to hear more harsh words…
Empress Dowager, looking down on us, smiled coldly and said, “Miliora, look at this. See what results your foolishness brings. Start.”
The maid approached me and sternly said, “Lift your skirt higher.”
Empress Dowager undoubtedly intended to beat me to death in front of Crown Princess Miliora.
My life was going to end here.
Staggering, I lifted my skirt, and the blood-soaked underskirt fell from my calf, making my body tremble.
Seeing my calf, Crown Princess Miliora’s face turned pale.
The maid, after flaunting the new cane in the air to create a whistling sound, struck it high in the sky.
At that moment, a servant entered and reported, “Empress Dowager, Empress calls for Crown Princess Miliora.”
“Why!”
“His Majesty ordered Crown Princess Miliora to attend the tea time where Agael’s envoy will be present.”
Empress Dowager’s face stiffened.
“This useless thing becomes more wicked the more she’s allowed to go!”
Crown Princess Miliora, not understanding the situation, sat with a lifeless face. I glared at her intensely.
‘Go when you find an opportunity to escape!’
Crown Princess Miliora turned her head to me as if possessed, then lifted her head.
“Empress Dowager, to avoid embarrassment in front of Agael’s envoy, we need Lorisha. I don’t know what to say there…”
“Sigh…you arrogant one. Fine. Let’s see how lucky you are.”
As Empress Dowager stood up and left, the maid threw the cane in frustration and followed her.
“What are you doing, you fool!”
The Crown Princess’s voice as she scolded me sounded strangely distorted.
I stared blankly, and tears fell steadily onto her porcelain-like cheek.
“Yes… Your Highness.”
I mumbled, descending from the stool.
Seemingly afraid that I might fall, she extended her hand towards me. The tip of her hand was trembling.
However, she hesitated to touch me directly and instead bit her lip. Among the nobility, it was inappropriate to casually touch those of lower status, requiring courage even for such actions.
Not being able to touch anyone freely, nobility was quite troublesome.
Even if I were to collapse, I didn’t want to do so here, so I walked out with all the strength left in me.
Upon exiting, Lord Rond, who had been waiting, widened his eyes at my appearance.
Following closely behind, the Crown Princess scolded Lord Rond.
“What are you doing! Lorisha is dying! Rond, quickly.”
Lord Rond embraced me abruptly. I made a groaning sound and muttered weakly.
“Lord, no. My back…!”
Lord Rond glared at me and clicked his tongue. Terrified, I bit down on my lips.
“Why are you concerned about my back, Lord Rond?”
The Crown Princess, alone, confidently walked ahead of us.
The strength emanating from her felt formidable, causing me to believe I could lift and wield her like a weapon. In fact, I decided to remain still. In reality, I couldn’t walk even if I were told to.
However, the Crown Princess started limping as she walked.
“Like this, how will we get to the Imperial Palace… Huhuhuk.”
Lord Rond replied, “Once you enter, a servant came and reported that Her Majesty and the envoy’s tea time was canceled.”
“Really? Huhuhuk. That’s good. Thank heavens. I cried so much; my face would be swollen now.”
Hearing this, something seemed odd. How could a state affair involving an envoy be canceled so easily, and the news spread so quickly…
Observing me with a suspicious gaze, Lord Rond whispered as if he found it distasteful.
“The young lion was busy today.”
This was Kaidel Master’s ‘conspiracy.’ He dared to lie to Empress Dowager to save me from being beaten to death.
Relief and disbelief overwhelmed me at the same time.
How much poison is he preparing to feed me later, saving me like this each time…
Even though I was in pain and irritated, I couldn’t resent him. What Empress Dowager’s living intention meant was clear. She was undoubtedly willing to send me to my death if it satisfied Crown Prince Orel’s anger.
My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.
The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
2. Fantasy cultivation world setting.
