There's a Snake in the Empress' Bedroom (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 22
The envoys from various countries in the banquet hall fell silent.
Canaria was undoubtedly a beautiful woman.
However, opinions were divided on whether her beauty could rival Renisha’s.
Dressed in fabric clearly from Shamdir, Canaria sparkled like a jewel.
A brief silence fell before it was broken.
“That fabric was originally meant for Her Majesty the Empress, wasn’t it?”
“They say the Emperor sent it to Canaria. How shameless to make a dress out of it.”
“The Emperor is smitten with such a woman. What a mess. Who would’ve thought she’d make it this far?”
To celebrate the eighth anniversary of Rexus’s reign, not only envoys from various countries but also nobles from the provinces had come to the capital to attend the banquet.
Canaria passed through their gazes and stood before the Emperor and Empress.
With a coy smile, Canaria thrust her chest forward.
Though slightly too revealing, the extravagant necklace she wore helped divert attention.
Only the Emperor needed to notice the allure beneath the necklace.
Rexus gave a bright smile.
“You look especially beautiful today, Canaria.”

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.”
