Ascending to the throne at eighteen, not half a year passes before civil strife erupts in Yun Nan. Though the thoughts of the old guard at the imperial court are not exactly identical, they are all waiting to see how the new emperor will put an end to this.

Unexpectedly, before this side could make a move, a few thousand miles away, the King of Xi Nan, Duan Bai Yue, had already personally commanded troops to attack in all directions; not half a year had passed when peace was restored.

Sparse moonlight shines into the palace; Chu Yuan stamped the wax seal himself, and had a secret letter sent urgently to Yun Nan 800 miles away — this time, what must we(1) give in exchange?

Brush marks passed through the back of the paper; it almost can be seen, when writing this line, how angry the young emperor was.

Duan Bai Yue spread out a piece of paper unhurriedly, replying with only one word.

You.

Driel Stein, the Lord of Arhon. ... more>>

The unfortunate fact that he did not love his wife, Lune Hellid, was well-known to most.

“To all the gods I swear;

I will never love someone like you.

Rather than spending the rest of my life with you, I would rather die on the battlefield.”

Lune, having heard insults from her husband on the day of their wedding,

became the world’s most miserable wife, but she did not resent Driel.

Instead, she understood Driel.

“I’ve begged you countless times to not choose me as your husband.

Now that you’ve ruined me, how do you feel?”

It was because Lune Hellid had ruined Driel Stein’s life.

After three years, the husband who left for the battlefield like he was committing su*cide has returned.

To seek forgiveness for her mistakes, Lune decided to get a divorce immediately.

But her husband was acting strangely.

“I’m not going to divorce you even if I die. So you should also give up.”

Not only did he refuse the divorce, he even extended a helping hand to Lune.

“Lune. The Driel that whined that you ruined his life was reborn on the battlefield.”

What exactly happened to Driel at the northern battlefield?

“Lady Hellid, there are reanimated corpses attacking the village!”

This “Empire Sandbox” allowed him to mobilize all domestic resources for rational allocation. The stronger the nation became, the stronger he became.

In order to become stronger, Lin Beifan did many things that seemed foolish to others.

“Your Majesty, the Mo Kingdom is willing to trade the most beautiful woman in their kingdom for an iron mine!”

Lin Beifan: “The Mo Kingdom is truly sincere. Let’s trade!”

As a result, after the Mo Kingdom acquired the iron mine, it collapsed, burying 200,000 troops!

“Your Majesty, the Grand General intends to stage a rebellion!”

Lin Beifan: “I admire those with ambition. Let him fight!”

As a result, the Grand General’s food supply vanished into thin air. His army starved to death on their way to the Capital City, never making it to battle.

In the end, Lin Beifan walked further and further down the path of a foolish emperor, yet the territory kept expanding, the country became stronger, and his harem grew increasingly…

Everyone was dumbfounded: “How did such an incompetent ruler become the legendary emperor throughout the ages?” <<less

Most royal marriages are set up when the couple is young, and the fiancée is chosen for political reasons. The couple stays together unless there is a big problem.... more>>

But in the Kingdom of Catalonia, the royalty selects their partners and announces them, along with their future entourage, at the Royal Academy graduation ceremony.

Other countries' royal families envy this system because it allows them to choose the partner they want.

Although the system is well-liked by the other countries' royal families, there is one person who is not pleased: Catalonia's first prince, Cyril.

He's tall and fearless, with blond hair and blue eyes. Outstanding academic achievements. He is a promising next king, surrounded by sons and daughters of the high nobility, all with a glazed look in their eyes, saying "I want to be queen" or "I want to be a close aide."

This made Cyril's school life extremely difficult.

His brother Luke was wondering if there was anything he could do to assist.
Then an idea struck Luke.

A crazy idea, but if it works, it will solve Cyril's problems once and for all.

——Two Unfortunate Outsiders in the Core Family

They are outsiders excluded by the pheromone rules.

From birth to death, like mayflies, leaving no trace.

They once awkwardly learned about Alpha and Omega, embracing each other in the cold of all four seasons, kissing each other's necks without any difference while embracing.

They also sat side by side in a pitch-black cinema, lay in soft grass, and tasted each other's different flavored coffees.

They once witnessed together the first falling yellow leaf and the first sprouting green bud every year.

In the 19th year, by the low wall outside the small building.

Standing side by side, leaning against the cold winter stone wall, cigarettes between their fingers, silently watching the endless flow of cars in front of them.

Bian Liming is the cigarette that Zhao Yuan can't quit——

To alleviate the boredom between the fingers, there is no need for unnecessary kisses.

Zhao Yuan is the pride melted by Bian Liming——

From then on, for him, friendship became more important than both love and family.

“A new student has transferred to our class, named Qin Yu.”

“Today Qin Yu talked to me. He asked me where the homeroom teacher’s office is. I wish I could speak.”

“I got a new desk partner today, it’s Qin Yu. It’s one in the morning now, and I can’t sleep.”

“During the May Day holiday, I haven’t seen Qin Yu for three days… Pu Chen, what are you thinking? You’re a mute girl.”

Pu Chen never expected that her diary would be seen by her classmates.

The classroom suddenly quieted down, everyone silently gossiping. Pu Chen, with average grades and unable to speak, also secretly admired the academic overachiever and campus heartthrob Qin Yu. But Qin Yu already likes someone else.

At that moment, the notebook happened to reach Qin Yu’s hands.

Pu Chen lowered her head, feeling ashamed.

Qin Yu walked to Pu Chen’s desk, holding the notebook: “I liked you from the first day you transferred here. What about you?”

【Case Two】

She has a deaf and mute father, who, with his incomplete body, holds up a complete sky for her.

Her father is the most handsome man in her heart.

When she was sixteen, she met the carefree and uninhibited Qin Yu.

Ning Qing put full effort. She had to show everyone that she would live a good life, give birth to a bunch of children and then the husband and wife would love each other for life.

However ... this time, everyone was right. She failed, and indeed a good girl like Li Shuangshuang was worthy of Chen Jili.
She admitted defeat!

She was a bad girl, so she should leave in disgrace and live the life that a bad girl should live. <<less
