Canary’s malice towards Lenisha had a reason.
Canary despised herself more than anyone for being a maid who used to wipe Lenisha’s feet.
The selfhatred had spread to Lenisha.
So Canary acted more refined and despised the maids who took care of her, and she still hated Lenisha, who ignored her.
It was an inferiority complex that could not be revealed to the Emperor.
Especially since the Emperor seemed to harbor a sort of inferiority complex towards Lenisha as well.
If Canary revealed this, she might be miserably abandoned.
Canary’s lips quivered.
She spat out with sharp eyes.
“Even so, isn’t my situation better than the abandoned Empress? Do you know what the Emperor is thinking?”

Canary walked over and sat in the chair across from Lenisha.
“This is topsecret information I’m telling only you, Empress. The Emperor is thinking of sending you to the slave Casius.”
Canary smiled softly.
Canary had no desire to leave this imperial palace.
Her absolute standard was in what she enjoyed here.
Certainly, the Empress would feel insulted by this now.
Moreover, she was a slave! Wasn’t that a lower status than Canary?
When she had seduced the Emperor last night and found out, she couldn’t contain her soaring elation.
Finally, Lenisha would be beneath Canary.
“Really? That’s… unfortunate.”

Lenisha responded calmly.
Canary clenched her teeth. It was not as she had expected, and she felt a scratch at the calm reply.
Canary glared at Lenisha menacingly.
“……Since we have been together for a while, reveal your true feelings. I, Canary, will kindly console you. How much must your heart be hurting? It’s almost like being kicked out of the palace.”
“Ah. I’m fine. I’m grateful that you’re worried about me.”
What’s going on?
Has Lenisha become stupid?
Canary bit her lips.
“It’s a slave.”
Canary whispered in a soft voice.

“A slave beneath my status, Empress. You’re going to him, aren’t you? And he’s from the barren Hilosha, right? You’re going to the most barren land that Loterra once had. Did you think that’s all? The castle of Loterra will be handed down to that slave. Loterra!”
There, even Lenisha paused for a moment.
But it was so brief that Canary did not notice.
Lexsus closed the doors of the Loterra family with his own hands.
But he’s giving the castle of Loterra to Casius?
It was malicious enough.
But, thinking differently… it was rather a grateful thing.
No need to strive to regain Loterra.
He knew there were many things that could be done under the name of Loterra, and he wondered what secret plan Lexsus had.
‘Or is he really ignoring Loterra? To insult me, he makes this wicked move?’

A name that could move the old nobles, a name that allowed him to rally the knights who had drawn swords for the Chorpa Plain under Loterra.
‘Or… he may be trying to sweep it away at once.’
Lenisha might even be hoping for her to move as planned.
Gather people, revitalize Loterra.
And then once again cover it with rebellion.
‘That can’t happen.’
Loterra is not to be fooled twice by Lexsus’ will.
Lenisha smiled smoothly.
“Canary. You are still full of worries. Just like when you were serving me as Jessica.”
Canary’s face turned pale.

Jessica was the name she used when she was working as a maid.
As soon as she entered the Emperor’s bedroom, she seduced Lexsus.
Asking for a new name.
Certainly, here is the translated passage following the guidelines and character details provided:
Now it was time to live as the Emperor’s person, so she needed a beautiful name befitting him.
Lexsus, thrilled with excitement, bestowed a name.
It was Canaria.
“Don’t utter that name, Your Majesty the Empress.”
The one who was rather angry was Canaria.
Canaria revealed her true feelings in front of the calm Lenisha.

“Why? I think that name is better. Canaria is the name of a bird that has lived in the royal family for a long time. A pitiful bird whose wings were clipped and never once left the cage. Do you really like that name?”
Lenisha nonchalantly touched Canaria’s sore spot.
Canaria gnawed at her red lips.
Canaria knew that too.
She couldn’t hold back tears when she got the mere name Canaria by acting coy.
However, it’s a name given by the Emperor who raises a monster inside him, even pretending to be kind.
Canaria had no choice but to be Canaria.
“Do you know what happened to that bird in the end?”
“……”
“Everyone forgot about it. Even the gardener. It no longer received food or water, and the bird stopped singing. It died lonely, forgotten.”

Canaria couldn’t not know what Lenisha meant by saying that.
That Canaria would meet the same fate as that bird.
The consort who will eventually be abandoned, singing only when the Emperor wishes.
In an elegant way, Lenisha once again exposed Canaria’s stigma.
Canaria’s vision was dyed red with anger.
Canaria slowly closed and opened her eyes.
Lenisha gestured towards Lindey.
“I’m thinking of having a new tea. Are you planning to stay longer?”
Canaria shook her head as she rose from her seat.
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
