In the unlikely event that Denver finds out that Canaria’s child is not the emperor’s, and she is thinking of running away, what would happen?
Denver’s support would also be cut off.
‘That won’t happen.’
Canaria clenched her fist.
“Is there tea for the medicine Lexes is taking?”
“If it’s a medicine that clears the mind and purifies the heart… Although I am continuously taking it, I have no words about the tea. I am not a doctor.”
Denver’s Marquis shrugged his shoulders.
“It seems that the baby is growing. The child must be born healthy.”
Denver’s Marquis glanced at Canaria’s belly, smiling brightly.
It seemed like that was all he intended to say.
Canaria gently stroked her belly.
No matter how much she thought about it, choosing to get pregnant at that time was a wise decision.
With the child, Canaria became an empress, and now she was even preparing to buy a mansion abroad.
She had also experienced using honorifics with high nobles like Denver’s Marquis.
It could also make Renisha bow her head.
Canaria seemed unlikely to regret the decision she made at that time.
“Don’t worry about that, Marquis. I’m taking very good care of our prince.”
“Are you sure it’s a prince?”
“I called the midwives and asked. Midwives with a lot of childbirth experience can tell whether it’s a son or a daughter just by looking at the shape of the belly. They gathered and unanimously said it’s a son. You will have a son who resembles His Majesty, the Emperor.”
Denver’s Marquis suppressed a laugh inwardly.
The one who first suspected when Canaria had a child would probably be him.
Lexes hadn’t had a child until now.
And suddenly, Canaria got pregnant at such a cunning timing?
It would be more natural to say that she made the pregnancy happen.
Denver’s was naturally suspicious.
Once he had suspicions, he didn’t let go, and eventually, he heard from Renisha that the child was likely to be a village bastard’s seed.
‘Ridiculous.’
It was too lacking to become the empress of the empire.
And now she was bragging about giving birth to a child resembling Lexes.
Of course, it would be a disaster if a child resembling Lexes was born.
But more than that…
‘No. Perhaps watching Lexes suffer with a child that isn’t even his own might make me feel a little better.’
Denver’s Marquis’s lips twisted at the thought of Jeils.
To hide that, Denver’s took a sip of tea.
“When the baby is born, I will do a lot for him. Since he will be the child of the emperor, he naturally has to study a lot… And he should learn horseback riding. Should he also learn swordsmanship?”
Canaria counted off one by one.
‘Ugh, I can’t breathe.’
Rather than living such a life, it would be much better for the child to leave with Canaria.
“…Of course. If that’s what you wish, the child must do so to become an emperor.”
Denver’s roughly matched Canaria’s tone.
“By the way. Marquis, what about what I told you back then?”
Canaria cleared her throat.
“Are you talking about preparing to welcome the envoy?”
“Yes! That’s it.”
Canaria nodded.
“I’ve been studying Geltan diligently lately. To welcome the envoy, you know. Actually, who else in the imperial family would do such a thing now? Do we have anyone other than me? Although His Majesty, the Emperor, still doesn’t trust me… If Denver’s Marquis helps, I’m sure he’ll allow it.”
Canaria spoke with a dreamy expression.
Among the things Renisha did, the most enviable one was receiving the envoys.
Renisha conversed with them fluently in foreign languages.
They tried their best to exchange more words with Renisha, and her surroundings overflowed with gifts they brought.
Even the magnificent, high-nosed Prince Meteo of Shandir ended up becoming Renisha’s captive.
It was undoubtedly due to her excellent social skills.
Canaria believed that she could do the same.
“… I will try my best.”
Marquis Denver spoke.
“His Majesty, the Emperor, hasn’t been in a good mood lately. It wasn’t a situation where something could be done.”
“Oh, right. There’s a festival soon. Many people will surely come…”
Canaria pursed her lips.
It was true that a grand festival would be held a month later.
It was a festival to honor the three snake gods known for correcting the chaos on the continent.
Many foreigners would visit to participate in the continental festival.
“Just trust me, Empress. I will help you.”
“Promise?”
Marquis Denver nodded.
To a subject who couldn’t even handle the duties of a proper empress.
While concealing such ridicule.
Henry’s gaze shone ominously.
Now is the chance.
He couldn’t stay trapped here any longer.
He might be able to escape with Isabella, but that would probably be difficult.
He put a sleeping pill in the food during dinner at the restaurant.
He also replaced the handkerchiefs used by Helena and Jane using Isabella.
Everything was going smoothly.
Eventually, Isabella’s head dropped with a thud as she succumbed to sleepiness.
Henry’s smile deepened.
“…Well, Isabella. Have sweet dreams.”
It was when Henry affectionately stroked Isabella’s head as a final farewell.
“…So who is managing Hilosha? They said there is a temporary lord now.”
“Do you really intend to emigrate?”
“Well, if possible.”
“Right now it’s someone named Brick. It seems that Brick is temporarily taking over the position of temporary lord while the duke is away. I don’t know who it is either.”
Brick…?
Henry’s blurry eyes widened.

Wasn’t the male lead described as a cold and otherworldly figure in the book?
Then who was this poor little thing crying with swollen red eyes and tear-stained face?
Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
