Wait, why censor a kiss? I don't understand...

The intimacy in this chapter was so sweet. They love each other!

Wait, why censor a kiss? I don't understand...

dunno, but its quite common for manhuas to censor kisses .. depends on the publisher I guess

Ah, that was so lovely. ^_^

The poor book, though... :D

The title of this chapter reminded me of those old mobile game ads that became a meme. "Come Play Discretely, My Lord"

Just finished binging this. How is everyone seriously so adorable?

If Dowager wasn't such a controlling bitch, they could've been a cute happy family. Too bad.

What kind of shitty murder attempt was that lmao

I mean, it would work, had the Little Empress been a sheltered wallflower. And not, you know, a drowning survivor with a maxed-out martial ability.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure this will not work out in any way like the dowager imagined.

Ch.39: Is "his" majesty in her period? You know the "stomachache" thing, so the scenario will be now that she will jump into the water to rescue her wife and get wet so the blood will be obvious or something like that and the empress will notice etc etc

^Gross. Anyhew, hopefully the Emperor will enact a purge now.

All in all, I'd say if you're going to assassinate somebody, don't start off with an attempt that might as well be a warning shot. I know, I know, she wants it to look like an accident, but come on.

Won't even succeed at looking like an accident: Sliced rope looks different from rope that has frayed and torn naturally.

Chekhov’s maxed-out martial-arts ability . . .

Ohhh for the reveal to match their first meeting, I really like that parallel.

Also, dang yeah, you totally called it. Completely missed it myself, she's just having a bad day all around: assassination attempt, secrets being revealed, cramps... really can't get worse (I hope)

Things are gonna spice up a bit now that everything is out the bag. His majesty being a woman, and her mum's attempt murder .
Thanks for the chapter!

Damn, that's quite a lot of blood...heavy flow this month, hm?

She's so fast at thinking on her feet, with that "stay back, go get the general instead" line.

oh wow, very keen of you.. damn you called it.. i was so confused at first with the blood, i thought she got caught in something while diving in, but this makes more sense, plot wise with the reveal and such.

Welp, I was wrong about the Little Empress' swimming abilities. Apparently, almost drowning once had not motivated her enough to learn to swim. Let's see if the second time is the charm. ^^

Especially since she does not know who else knows about the Emperor's sex. But she must have figured out that if someone knows it, it must be Tantai Lan.

I was not expecting the drop this fast! And gosh, yeah, like people are saying, I love how canny our empress is. She's got a solid head on her shoulders, and it really goes a long way.

Now that the cat's out of the bag, she seriously doesn't have any more excuses to hide from the sex monster.

Now she will discover is even better

Start of part 2: Aware her majesty is a girl

...how long was the empress in the water? Long enough for the emperor to notice she was late, rush out, and find the attendant?
