The Secret Night at Unyeon Palace (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 72
Her feelings toward the King were sincere and untainted by falsehood.
Yet why was her love repeatedly rejected each time?
She truly loved the King—with sincerity—and without that, she could not explain this emotion.
Even if her methods were flawed, her love was certainly genuine.
At that thought, sorrow welled up inside her, choking her throat.
“If I say my feelings were sincere, will Your Majesty believe me? From the very beginning, there was never a place for this lowly servant in Your Majesty’s heart. Had Your gaze toward me ever been even once tender, I would not have gone this far.”
“So all of this is now My fault?”
“This lowly servant sincerely loved Your Majesty. It was Your Majesty who misunderstood my heart.”
Her voice sharpened with pain. Her tightly pressed lips trembled faintly, and her eyes glistened with tears.
A heavy silence lingered for a moment, then the King spoke in a suppressed tone.
“You claimed you sincerely loved Me? You, Royal Noble Consort, claim you loved Me?”
He seized her chin. His gaze upon her was dark and unreadable.
“If you truly loved Me, you should never have laid a hand on My child. And yet you speak of misunderstanding? How is it possible that you differ not one bit from your own father?”
“What do you…?”
“Do you truly intend to claim ignorance of what your father did? What am I to do with a Consort who murders My child and then professes undying love for Me? Tell Me.”

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.”
