To The Eternal Knight (2 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 130
“What if we bring up once more the Crown Prince’s successful recent tour as a new topic of discussion?”
The Emperor gripped tightly the armrests of the imperial throne. It was Duke Hedeck, leader of the nobles’ faction, who finally answered the question the Chief Steward had been unable to address.
This was an emergency assembly of the nobility. Among those who had just arrived, Duke Hedeck had already offered a remarkably clear response.
“The Crown Prince’s tour.”
The Emperor looked down at Duke Hedeck and murmured softly.
“Yes, Your Imperial Majesty. Even if it’s merely idle gossip, I believe it would be unwise for rumors regarding His Grace the Grand Duke and Count Esteban to spread favorably. Especially since they’re being called the empire’s most eligible bachelors… Ah, forgive my boldness, Your Majesty.”
Until now, Duke Hedeck had seemed to carefully control his expression, but in that instant, he lowered his head.
His action—clearly meant to avoid showing any hint of disloyalty—not only silently acknowledged the Emperor’s unease but also slightly eased the tension.
“However, if such rumors continue spreading and cloud the judgment of regional nobles and commoners alike, what could be more disrespectful than that? Before that happens, I suggest we circulate accounts of the Crown Prince’s recent tour to dampen those rumors and refresh the current atmosphere.”
It was a rather sound suggestion.
When the Emperor nodded, Duke Hedeck noticeably glanced down toward the Crown Prince standing beneath the dais. Meeting Duke Hedeck’s eyes, the Crown Prince smiled proudly, and the Emperor offered a faint smile in return.
Ah. So the Crown Prince had cleverly used the leader of the nobles’ faction. He’d even orchestrated this formal opportunity to solidify his own position anew.
The Emperor’s previously simmering frustration, ignited by the Grand Duke and Count Esteban, now began to subside slightly.
“Since this concerns the Crown Prince, let him take the lead.”
Hardly had the permission left the Emperor’s lips when the Crown Prince rose from his seat. Under the chandelier’s glow, his golden hair shimmered brilliantly.
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…
