Here is the English translation of the given text:
“…So, no matter how much Hister Butler is of the emperor’s bloodline and even rose to the position of crown prince, he is now nothing more than a wanted criminal.”
The square of the market.
The reactions of the merchants who had gathered around Ryan in a black mass were quite diverse.
Among them, there were some who nodded their heads as if they fully agreed with Ryan’s words, and there were also those who glared at him, wrinkling their faces as if they could never agree.
“But even so, to think that Prince Sinclair would ascend to the emperor’s position!”
Just like this man.
“Does that even make sense? I can’t believe that Crown Prince Hister killed the emperor!”
“That has already been announced as fact by the palace. Quite a few people who were there all saw the video…”
“Even if Crown Prince Hister is really the culprit, my opinion won’t change! There will be many more who think the same as me!”
“No, how many times do I have to say it for you to understand…!”
“…Lord Voltaire, just stay quiet. I don’t think anything will get better even if you intervene now.”
It was Marquis Dwain who swiftly pulled Denhel Voltaire back as if telling him to shut his mouth.
…The four people, including Perin, had successfully finished their tasks as previously discussed.
Voltaire struggled alongside his father to gauge the mood of the nobles, while Marquis Dwain not only provided numerous troops to the soldiers going to subjugate Hister, but also deployed the remaining private soldiers to the palace.
The tasks of the two men were not particularly difficult.
Fortunately, the nobles did not object to the current situation as much as expected.
To be precise, they thought that since Sinclair had survived so many wars, the result would be no different this time.
So they must have judged that there was no reason to unnecessarily open their mouths and incur the displeasure of Sinclair, who would seize imperial power as soon as he returned.
‘It’s true that Prince Sinclair’s reputation was not good, but I thought it had improved a lot compared to before…’
Marquis Dwain, with a troubled expression, let out a light sigh and looked at Ryan, who was having a hard time persuading people.
“I can’t believe it either. Wasn’t it Prince Sinclair who beat Yuria to death in broad daylight!”
“Everyone, please listen to me for a moment. That’s because Concubine Yuria…!”
“Come to think of it, wasn’t it strange last time when His Majesty was attacked by a lion? I thought it must have been Prince Sinclair’s doing.”
“Right. If someone who killed a favored concubine can’t kill his own father, what reason is there? But Crown Prince Hister had no need to do that!”
“And even if, by any chance, Crown Prince Hister really did such a thing, there’s still Prince Chase! Prince Chase is also of royal blood, so why should Prince Sinclair take the throne! What about him can we trust…”
“With all due respect, if Prince Sinclair becomes emperor, it might be more of a threat to us! Do you know what the prince’s nickname was on the battlefield? They called him a crazy murderer! Because he killed so many people!”
Once erupted, the distrust and discontent began to burst out like a flood, as if they had been waiting for the right time.
“At least Crown Prince Hister is not that kind of person! Only the royal family and nobles saw the video, so how do you know if they’re not conspiring together to deceive us!”
“That’s right! Who knows? Maybe Lord Ryan is also colluding with Prince Sinclair to say these things!”
“Wait!”
Above the people’s clamor pouring out like a machine gun, Ryan’s voice, much thicker than usual, rang out.
It wasn’t just the merchants. Voltaire and Dwain also flinched greatly and looked at Ryan.
“…It’s true that Prince Sinclair has heard bad things on the battlefield, but if it weren’t for the prince, we would have suffered even greater damage!”
Ryan, standing in front of everyone, had a face completely different from his usual gentle and kind appearance.
“I’m not just talking about the royal family and nobles. Look back at the past few years. Prince Sinclair has participated in every war without exception. If he had returned defeated, the enemy forces would have invaded Edenbell directly.”
“Even so…!”
“Look. Even now, you are all objecting like this! But if Prince Sinclair had really killed the emperor, would the nobles and royals have just stood by and watched? They also had a negative view of the prince, just like you!”
Ryan shouted loudly.
“The video contained everything about Hister brutally murdering His Majesty the Emperor! Not only nobles and royals, but also soldiers were present at the scene! Even when His Majesty the late Emperor was attacked by a lion, His Majesty himself spoke about it in front of everyone! It had nothing to do with Prince Sinclair!”
“But it’s true that Prince Sinclair killed Lady Yuria!”
Ryan flinched slightly.
“That’s the point from which we can’t trust Prince Sinclair. No matter how bad their relationship was, how could he kill the concubine favored by His Majesty in broad daylight at the palace…”
“That was an unavoidable situation.”
“What?”
“I would have done the same if it were me.”
“H-Has Lord Ryan gone crazy? Why would you say such a thing now…”
Voltaire, so shocked that his face had turned pale, looked at Dwain, and Dwain slowly shook his head as if telling him to be quiet.
“You see. Lord Ryan is just blindly taking Prince Sinclair’s side, isn’t he!”
“Do you know who killed the late Empress?”
“Why are you bringing up the late Empress here…!”
“It was Concubine Yuria.”
As Ryan slowly continued, people’s faces subtly turned pale.
“I’m sure I’ve also thought about whether Prince Sinclair really has the qualities of an emperor or not. So right after the prince left to subjugate the rebels, I looked into everything that had happened at the palace.”
“…”
“At the time of the incident, Prince Sinclair kept insisting that all of this was Concubine Yuria’s doing, but no one listened.”
“How can we believe something without any evidence!”
“Aren’t you ashamed before the late Emperor, Lord Ryan!”
“The evidence is right here.”
Ryan gave a short answer, then quietly rummaged through his chest. And not long after, he took out two neatly folded documents.
It was a secret letter.
The one that Sinclair had once shoved at the emperor while threatening him.
[After killing the child, disguise it as an accident and deliver the body. Make sure there are no mistakes like last time, completely.]“With Concubine Yuria’s seal clearly stamped on it.”
As Ryan waved the secret letter as if to show it, the surroundings became quiet in an instant. People began to fall into confusion with an expression of disbelief, and Ryan silently looked at them.
“…And you asked if I’m not ashamed before the late Emperor?”
Ryan slowly continued, handing over the secret letter he was holding.
And then…
“Eliminate both the child and the mother.”
In a calm voice, he spoke the contents of the remaining secret letter.
“This is a secret letter written directly by His Majesty the Emperor. His seal is also clearly stamped on it.”
[…I found a knight who served Yuria most closely, and after his mother passed away, he fled to another empire as if running away. But I finally found him and sent Schuler. And do you know what came out? As if thinking that his life might be in danger someday for keeping his mouth shut, he had kept that secret letter despite fleeing Edenbell like a debtor. It’s quite interesting.]Even after the emperor’s death, Sinclair continued to keep the secret letter he had found.
Of course, Sinclair would not have known.
That in this situation, Glen had handed over the secret letter to Ryan to use it most effectively.
[And if this fact becomes known to people, more interesting things will happen. Not only was it the emperor who instigated the empress’s death, but the current crown prince’s mother tried to kill the eldest son of the enemy. There’s no bigger scandal than this.]Anyway, Sinclair’s words spat at the emperor had also come true nicely.
“…Although Prince Sinclair’s actions cannot be considered absolutely right, you should now be aware that there is a discrepancy between what has been known so far and the truth.”
“Wh-What… What’s going on…”
“Hister previously tried to kill Prince Chase by poisoning his medicinal wine. The person who prevented that was Princess Consort Elaina… and Prince Sinclair has also been protecting the two of them ever since.”
“What did you say…?”
“In addition, just before being kidnapped, Prince Chase even wrote a document stating that it would be right for Prince Sinclair to succeed the imperial power in case of any unforeseen events. Even so, do you really think Prince Sinclair has no qualifications at all? Sincerely?”
“…”
“The reason I’m even persuading you all like this is simply because… I hope that Edenbell, which will welcome a new emperor, will be at least a little more peaceful. That’s the only reason.”
Yes, she had hoped and wished to live in such a peaceful Edenbell.
That poor woman who dared not even reach out her hand.
“…It seems to have been wrapped up to some extent.”
Marquis Dwain, who had been watching the situation, finally let out a sigh of relief and muttered softly. Voltaire was the same.
“It’s fortunate, but… why is Lord Ryan going this far? He’s not even on good terms with Prince Sinclair himself.”
“Well, we can’t know.”
Marquis Dwain shrugged and said.
“He may have circumstances that he can’t tell even us.”
Yes, that young master. Marquis Dwain snickered.
“Hmm…”
“Well, anyway… I wonder if Lady Perin is doing well. I just hope she doesn’t come back looking like she got beaten up on the street like last time.”
“…Isn’t the order wrong? Before that, we should be worried about the safety of Prince Sinclair and Princess Consort Elaina.”
“Those two will return safely on their own. When has Prince Sinclair ever returned without victory?”
That was true.
“Since it seems the talk is over, I should take Lord Ryan back. He’s been running around the capital doing this for days. If left alone, he’ll go somewhere else without a chance to stop him…”
And it was at that very moment.
“The palace soldiers!”
From far away, someone’s resounding voice was heard.
“All the soldiers are returning!”
“Already? Much faster than expected… Wait, Lord Ryan!”
Ryan began to run like crazy, leaving behind his friends who were calling for him.
Gasping for breath, he climbed a high hill and belatedly caught his breath, looking ahead.
The soldiers returning triumphantly, as someone had said,
And the carriage that Sinclair and Elaina would likely be riding in.
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…?
