“Don’t get angry, Cassius. You rescued me from all those moments.”
Renisha spoke as amiably as possible. As Cassius mentioned, Renisha was always exposed to danger. Lexis was a madman. At any moment, he could interfere and disrupt anything.
“From now on, Luna will be by my side. According to what I’ve observed, Luna is an excellent swordsman.”
“…….”
“They are no different from beasts that lack discernment.”
Renisha made a sarcastic comment.
“If I were in such a situation, Luna would probably kill Lexis. What do you think?”
She added a hint of laughter. Of course, before such a situation arose, Renisha would intervene. An agreement had been made with Luna to faint Lexis in case he came alone on a deserted night.
“……In contrast, Lexis is nothing more than a murderer. He has probably forgotten how to properly wield a sword.”
Renisha gently shook Cassius’s hand. Cassius, who had been holding his breath, let out a suffocated breath. It felt like things that had been blocked were coming down. Cassius wiped his face with the palm of his hand.
Renisha was unharmed.
“If it were Luna, it might certainly happen.”
“Luna will also accompany the evening banquet. I couldn’t bring her to this place.”
Renisha raised Cassius’s hand. She slowly kissed the back of his hand, which looked twice as big as hers, with a deliberate movement. Cassius’s back of the hand became as hot as if it were on fire.
“Are you still angry with me?”
Renisha whispered.
“…I wasn’t trying to get angry.”
“I know.”
“I wasn’t angry with you.”
“I know.”
Renisha reached out towards Cassius. Cassius willingly bent over. Renisha bent his neck closer. Cassius, who swayed and shook, grabbed the armrest of the chair where Renisha was sitting.
While hugging Cassius, Renisha said.
Renisha and Cassius.
“Kiss me, Cassius.”
Cassius’s eyes trembled. Until a while ago, there were many watching eyes. Lexis was sitting next to Renisha, and envoys from various countries and nobles from Hyentry were gathered. Moreover, servants could come in at any time to find them.
“Quickly.”
Bedeok-gam wrapped Cassius in an embrace. Renisha wiped her reddened neck with her fingertips.
“Are you just going to watch?”
Renisha subtly pressed her body against Cassius. The slowly bending pupils were provocative. Even sirens that lure sailors wouldn’t be as seductive. Renisha’s slender fingers teased Cassius.
In the end, the one who was captivated was Cassius. Cassius dropped his head.
“Umm…….,”
Renisha made a pleased sound after getting what she wanted.
Satisfaction surged heavily. No one here could pull Renisha away. Not even Lexis.
Renisha was shining as brightly as ever, as if nothing had changed. Cassius, feeling stifled, fidgeted with his tie.
Until just now, it was hard to believe that she was someone who suited him.
Even when the people brought by Madame Touriel were redoing Renisha’s makeup, she remained confident.
In any case, the meal continued. Princess Donata was no longer saying anything to Lexis.
Instead, it seemed like she was looking for another target, and Princess Gallerus seemed quite satisfied with her choice of Renisha.
In the midst of the heavy silence, someone intervened.
In fact, those who had been looking forward to meeting the Emperor of Hyentry couldn’t bear this silence.
“May I speak despite the rudeness, Your Imperial Majesty?”
Lexis raised cold eyes.
“I have been looking forward to meeting Your Imperial Majesty for a long time.”
“Why?”
He was the prince of Illian. The prince of Illian was a prince with a solid foundation as a hostile nation.
And the prince of Neryl, who came here, was born as a son of a concubine and was admitted by the queen. Since he had been held almost like a hostage, he had no backing.
Renisha narrowed her eyes.
‘Didn’t Prince Neryl say he was thinking of seeking asylum in another country?’
Lord Denver, who brought information about the rapidly changing situation on the continent, had grasped everything. Renisha highly regarded Lord Denver’s keen perception. Even if there were eyes that read the currents, it would be most accurate within the empire.
‘Even if it rots, it’s still Jun-chi. It’s better for the empire anyway.’
She wondered what the author would say. Which side would he choose?
“It seems that Your Imperial Majesty has an excellent eye for choosing a good wife.”
Prince Neryl looked alternately at the empty seats of Renisha and Canary.
“Hmm?”
“As an empress who is outstanding both politically and socially, giving birth to a child for the Emperor. Where else can you find such a perfect combination?”
Renisha made an amused expression.
Some faces turned pale. Wasn’t the hellish scene just now unforgettable? A noble who had flipped the blood of a Gael, who had committed the sin of being nearby, wiped his face with a handkerchief.
There was another crazy guy here.
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
