The Regressed Empress Tames the Hunting Dog (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 72
The walk to the Central Palace felt unusually short today. Perhaps it was because my mind was full. I felt as though my tangled thoughts refused to settle.
Erzé had promised to return from sightseeing in the capital by a certain time that morning. She was probably already waiting at the agreed spot by now.
She had asked for my help to visit the greenhouse, but after hearing various rumors from the maids, it no longer seemed entirely innocent.
Bellia let out a quiet sigh.
“There’s the guest. But…”
The maid walking beside Bellia trailed off, unable to finish her sentence.
Bellia saw the same scene as her maid.
Why was Erzé with Raoul right now?
“…I can’t imagine what she’s thinking, talking with His Highness like that.”
“Enough.”
Bellia cut off the grumbling maid, lowering her voice.
“It’s not even confirmed—don’t keep adding to the rumors. The Imperial Palace is always a place where one must guard their words.”
“Yes, Your Highness. I’m sorry.”
Though Bellia said that, she couldn’t deny that the current situation weighed on her mind.
With a cold gaze, Bellia slowly approached them.
After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.

After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
We are waiting for it too. I am happy that both Kalid and Bellia ended up happy together
Ahahaha 😂 It’s my first time reading that emperor, empress and prince sneaking out of the palace for fun
