Not to mention the ability to deal with those entangled in daily work. Compared to them, trying to act sophisticated but unable to shed their rural origins, was not difficult at all.
Unlike the vague impressions that are easily forgotten when you turn around, women have a strong desire in their eyes. And a man was someone who could more than adequately fulfill that desire.
“Is the child healthy? According to the doctor, she’s very healthy.”
Luzen turned his head again. He smiled like before, but the slightly rushed tone made it sound like he was trying to turn the conversation quickly.
As if he were pretending not to notice the strange atmosphere that he was deliberately ignoring in the room.
“It’s all thanks to Your Majesty.”
“What did I do? I just have a mischievous spirit. Don’t trust me too much. It’s just because I have a mischievous spirit that I have a mischievous spirit.”
Luzen made a frightening expression.
However, Margaret no longer hunched her body. She could subtly sense the atmosphere.
“I exclude everything else and think only of you and the child. What decision should we make?”
“…A decision for you and the child?”
“Lord Crayton is currently not in the capital.”
“…”
Margaret’s expression quickly stiffened for a moment. Luzen didn’t miss the opportunity and immediately continued speaking.
“Don’t be too sad. This is also an opportunity.”
“…”
“The moments of crisis can be a means of good judgment. If you look at who abandons me and who helps me, you’ll see who my real people are.”
“…”
“Especially in times like this, you need to make good choices. It might be a mistake once, but usually, that’s not the case. That’s why the same things happen over and over again.”
Luzen’s gaze fell on Margaret’s belly. Although she was wearing a dress made more generously than her measurements, her contours weren’t visible. However, her stomach was gradually swelling as time passed.
The child was growing day by day.
“I don’t give anyone a second chance. You have to quickly cut out the rotten parts so that other parts don’t rot.”
“…”
“Of course, this is just my judgment.”
Luzen stepped back with a smile. Margaret hesitated for a moment and cautiously covered her belly.
“The child needs a father.”
“That, too, depends on the father. Just because someone has a child doesn’t mean they love all their children. Especially among men, depending on which woman they fancy, the affection for the child can be misunderstood.”
“…”
“In situations like this, you have to make good choices. It might be a mistake once, but usually, that’s not the case. That’s why the same things happen over and over again.”
Luzen raised his hand to his shoulder as if to show off. Margaret followed the movement of Luzen’s hand with her eyes.
On Luzen’s shoulder pad, the emblem of the empire, a golden lion, was engraved with pure gold. Engraving the lion so large and splendidly was a luxury only the emperor among the imperial people could afford, and it was evidence that he had survived.
“My father used to play around and flirt with many women, but there were only three children because there was a reason for it.”
“…”
“Children can be born at any time, but it’s rare to have a child born safely. Especially if the child has siblings.”
“Siblings, you say…”
“Lady Crayton already had a child once.”
“But because of that, her body was completely ruined. So, since giving birth, there has been no relationship between them…”
Margaret stopped speaking for a moment, realizing her mistake. But it was already too late.
In an instant, Luzen’s eyes flashed.
“So, it seems she did.”
“…”
“Recently, too.”
“…”
Without needing an answer, just by looking at Margaret’s expression, it was clear enough. Luzen clenched his fist, seeing Margaret’s raised eyebrows.
“Even if you look at it, it’s just a meaningless relationship. She has a child—”
“Maryel Crayton was like that even before she was born. Everyone thought Lady Crayton couldn’t have a child.”
“…”
“Maybe she found a way. Initially, Lady Crayton not being able to have a child wasn’t a congenital problem.”
“Do you know about it?”
Margaret’s eyes widened. Luzen casually stroked his chin.
“It happened in the imperial family. It’s strange that I don’t know. Rather, it’s more surprising that you’re not surprised.”
Margaret rolled her eyes here and there before cautiously speaking. Unlike the first time, her guard seemed somewhat relaxed.
“I took care of her when she returned from the imperial family. She received treatment in the imperial family, but because she forcibly lost a child, her body suffered a lot. Even after returning, she had to rest for a while.”
“…”
A child? Luzen was about to say the word without realizing it but barely swallowed it. After that, he immediately continued speaking with an even brighter smile.
“From the father’s perspective, he can’t help but worry about the aftermath. It’s a precaution for unforeseen situations, in case the child is born and seeks revenge against the father. It’s just preparing for any possible circumstances.”
“Didn’t he even know whether she had a child, despite taking the medicine himself?”
Covering her mouth slightly, Margaret squinted her eyes.
Luzen quickly opened his mouth. It was subtle, but his tone had definitely become faster than before.
“He didn’t know?”
“It’s a bit amusing. In front, she pretended to be a modest lady, but in the end…”
Margaret hastily stopped her words. However, instead of blaming her, Luzen responded with a smile.
Rather than blaming, Luzen responded with a smile.
In response, Margaret lowered her hand slightly.
“Those who don’t seem to do such things do it even more. Especially since they were considered a naturally married couple. That’s how much my father probably made his own decision.”
“Yes, yes. After all, Emperor Sun is unlikely to have done that with bad intentions.”
Margaret quickly nodded her head, knowing that what she said was contradictory.
With just drinking from one bowl, Riviana not only lost the child in her womb but also received a diagnosis that it would be difficult to have another child. Although it was unclear exactly what kind of medicine was mixed, it was clear that it was an extremely potent drug. There was no way to see the emperor’s actions as entirely without malice.
But whether like this or like that, the fact that the emperor was Luzen’s father did not change. It was foolish to curse his father in front of him.
After taking a quick deep breath, Margaret quickly picked a story that would suit Luzen’s favor from her mind.
“Despite being a scion of a family that committed treason, you generously forgave her. And not only that, you lifted the suspicion of her playing around with her body before marriage.”
“Generously forgave…?”
“If she has any sin, it’s that she was ignorant. How could any woman not notice when she is holding someone else’s child?”
“…
“She simply wasn’t qualified to become a mother.”
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
