The Terminally-Ill Princess Holds the Leash of the Mad Dog (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 098
“……The task I assigned?”
Dietrich asked the man in the robe.
As he removed his robe, Sir Anderson’s face was revealed.
“It’s done. When I said I saw with my own eyes that Ileon burned down the Grand Temple, people turned their attention immediately. I never expected they’d believe it so readily.”
Dietrich gave a faint, knowing smile.
“To the people, what they need now is a scapegoat to ease their anxiety. How symbolic the figure is doesn’t matter. The more someone who once seemed untouchably high falls, the more comfort they feel.”
It was an ironic situation.
Yet, watching those who once praised Celia now call her a witch with the same mouths—weren’t people truly double-faced?
“Crowds quickly turn their backs when you no longer satisfy their desires. The more unstable the situation, the more they seek someone to place their anxiety upon, rather than relying on others.”
At Dietrich’s words, Sir Anderson let out an “Ah.”
“And besides, since I claimed to have fought with Duke Portman, Ileon’s side might assume it wasn’t me spreading the false rumor about the Grand Temple—it was Balt.”
“……I see.”
Whoosh—
Dietrich gazed at the rain-streaked window.
It had been overcast since morning, and by afternoon, rain poured down as if the sky had torn open.

My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”

Nice ending, with the glimpse of the future. I’m really expecting a lot from about extra stories. I just wonder is there connection with “Political Marriage with a Friendly Enemy”? Thank you about the translation.
