The Secret Night at Unyeon Palace (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 97
Chief Manager Choi’s face gradually stiffened.
Though she desperately feigned composure, her trembling gaze betrayed her.
Her low voice quivered faintly at the edge of her lips.
“What… what do you mean by that?”
Eun Seol wiped away her tears, then took out the baby blanket wrapped in cloth.
She unfolded it on the floor so the embroidered side was visible, then placed the newborn’s vest on top.
“Not long ago, I discovered the embroidery on this blanket. It was stitched in an inconspicuous spot, so I hadn’t noticed it until now. Did you really embroider this yourself?”
“Yes, I did embroider it. I adore red plum blossoms so much that I often stitch them absentmindedly, with no particular meaning. But is there… some issue with it?”
Eun Seol pulled a handkerchief from her sleeve, placed it atop the blanket, and looked at Chief Manager Choi with tear-blurred eyes.
Overwhelmed by emotion, her voice faltered, and her chest tightened with sorrow.
“This is the only item my mother—who gave birth to me—left behind for me.”
“…!”
“As you can see, all the stitching was done by the same person. Do you… remember?”
Chief Manager Choi couldn’t answer.
She simply hung her head, gripping the handkerchief tightly.

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.”
