Her normally calm and elegant demeanor was nowhere to be found.
Zer stepped back from the bed, opening the way for the Queen.
The Queen’s eyes were already filled with tears as she ran from the hallway.
“Delia, pull yourself together. Your mother is here.”
The queen’s delicate dress spread around her as she sat next to the bed.
The queen continuously wiped her daughter’s cold sweatstreaked cheek with the hem of her dress.
“Look at me, please.”
It was a more desperate gesture because her tears blurred her vision and she couldn’t see Del.
The Tarence Mountain was like a front yard for Iorenti.
It was like a playground where Delia had been playing with her grandfather since childhood.
What on earth had happened there that made the child unable to regain her senses?
The Queen had no idea.
“Please open your eyes, Del.”
Despite the Queen’s desperate pleas, Delia couldn’t open her eyes.
She just huddled herself, her body trembling and clutching her stomach.
As the Queen’s wailing shook the room, the king entered the room with his cane in a limping manner.
“What the hell is going on?”
Thanks to Delia, the Iorenti Castle, which had received the news of the Imperial Army’s surprise attack in advance, was in full swing preparing for the siege.
The king, who had been leading the defense of the capital, had stopped everything and rushed here when he heard about his daughter.
“What the hell happened? No, why is she lying down like that?”
The King’s gaze turned towards Delia, who was lying down.
She couldn’t come to her senses, sweating profusely with a pale complexion.
It was clear that something had happened.
“Guard Captain, I sent a messenger to call me back, how did things come to this?”
The King’s harsh rebuke was directed at Zer.
Zer bowed his head, he had no choice but to endure the King’s anger.
Even if he had ten mouths, he had nothing to say.
It was his mistake that the princess of Iorenti was taken away.
“What is the reason for the child, who was perfectly fine, to be like this?”
“It seems like she has eaten a toxic plant.”
“Why? Why on earth?”
“Well….”
With a feeling of shame and anger, Zer spoke with difficulty.
“The Princess was captured as a prisoner while trying to save us.”
Bang.
In the end, the king who couldn’t hold back his anger hit the floor roughly with his cane.
The room echoed with his voice full of anger.
“Didn’t you say she was just going to scout? But why is someone captured, who is saving who?”
Zer, as if it was his fault, bowed his head and spoke.
“We aggressively executed the plan to steal the Imperial Army’s weapons box….”
“Why didn’t you stop it?”
“Princess was so adamant that we couldn’t overrule her.”
“You should have come back as soon as you found the Imperial Army. You should have returned even if you had to drag her.”
The king knew that his harsh words were meaningless.
Who in this palace could overrule Delia?
The king’s gloomy eyes moved from Zer, who had bowed his head, to Delia, who was lying in bed.
Two weeks ago, thanks to the messenger sent by Delia, they learned that ten thousand Imperial soldiers were crossing Tarence Mountain.
While hurriedly preparing for the attack of the Imperial Army, he continuously sent messengers to Delia.
Telling her to come back to the castle.
Every time, Delia sent a message back saying she was okay and that she would only observe their movement route and return.
But since a few days ago, the king’s messengers returned without meeting Delia, and the Imperial Army rushed close to the capital.
Fortunately, thanks to the news Delia sent in advance, they were able to prepare for their attack but….
What the king was faced with was the sight of his daughter in danger.
“So.”
The king’s hand shook as he held back his anger.
“So, are you saying that they tried to kill Delia by feeding her poison?”
“That’s not it.”
“Then what?”
“To escape their surveillance, she took the poison herself.”
“What? What does that mean?”
“Seeing the princess suffering from the poison, the commander let her go.”
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
