All Chapters of Substitute Queen's Revenge: Chapter 291 - Chapter 300

George's anger was written all over his face, especially in his eyes.Every single concubine in the harem longed for his favor. But Wendy, of all people, wanted it but refused to admit it. She played hard to get in front of him.If she hadn't wanted this, why had she taken the initiative last night?And now, after everything was done, she was putting on this act and making it seem like he had forced her.How could he not be furious?Jane responded seriously, "Your Majesty, it is you who have suffered a loss."The coldness in George's demeanor did not fully fade, but his tone softened slightly, "If you know I've suffered a loss, then you should make it up to me properly. If you do conceive, then it will be a joyous occasion for all."As for those contraceptives, if you dare touch them again, I will kill that ever-loyal maid of yours."He would not tell her that, seeing how drunk she had been last night, he had never actually gone through with it in the end. For once, he had chos

"You have been in the palace for quite some time now," Teressa said seriously. "It wouldn't be appropriate if you went even longer without having served the king in bed."She had intended to arrange this matter earlier, but the king had been unable to perform due to his medical troubles, which had delayed things. Now that he had regained the ability, there was no reason to postpone it any longer. Besides, he had always respected her as his grandmother.Back then, even Wendy had remained a virgin after her wedding. It was only after she had issued a strict order that George had finally consummated their marriage.Rachel's turn to attend to the king was something she had full confidence in arranging.Rachel lowered her gaze, her face tinged with a soft blush, and replied in a gentle voice, "I will do as you please."She appeared docile and obedient, yet a flicker of ambition flashed through her eyes. Entering the palace as a concubine and giving birth to a royal heir had always been

Jocelyn knelt in the bone-chilling wind for thirty minutes. When she saw the king arrive, she immediately turned her head and cast him a helpless look. To her surprise, he didn't spare her a single glance and walked straight into the palace.Jocelyn stared blankly at his departing figure. Her frostbitten fists clenched unconsciously.She knew Jane didn't love George. But what about him? It seemed he liked Jane quite a lot.Still, no matter how much he favored a woman, surely he wouldn't tolerate her meddling in state affairs, nor would he allow her to humiliate a commander who had rendered great service to the kingdom.Upon entering the palace, George dismissed everyone else.Maya gave Wendy one last look, her expression full of exasperation, as if saying, 'See? This is what happens when you don't listen to me.'Jane stood up and curtsied. She seemed neither apologetic nor flustered."Greetings, Your Majesty," she said politely. "Why did you order Jocelyn to kneel?" George's v

George held the fragrant pouch between his fingers. He sensed something was amiss.He fixed his gaze on Wendy, not allowing her any sudden movements. Then, in a deep voice, he ordered, "Summon the physician!"Before long, the physician responsible for overseeing the queen's pregnancy, Rudolf, arrived. He was well aware that Wendy was not actually pregnant.The moment he brought the fragrant pouch to his nose, he reached a conclusion."Your Majesty, this is zerumbet ginger. It has properties that promote blood circulation and reduce bruising."So far, that seemed ordinary enough.But then, his expression shifted as he continued, "However, much like musk, if a pregnant woman is exposed to it for long periods, it can affect the fetus, potentially leading to miscarriage or even a stillbirth! "In fact, even ordinary women should avoid wearing such a fragrant pouch."Inside Jane's sleeve, her fingers curled into a fist. It was discovered after all.George's gaze darkened as if all

Jane knew better than anyone that the new rifle might look feasible, but in reality, it was far from simple. What Jocelyn had treated as a treasure and used to claim credit was nothing more than Jane's discarded draft.At that moment, in the Armory Bureau, everyone was gathered around the weapon design, their eyes filled with admiration and excitement."Jocelyn is truly a remarkable woman! To think she could design such an ingenious design!""It's been a long time since we've had something this impressive in the Armory Bureau! Inform the craftsmen–drop everything else and focus on building this new rifle!""I can't wait to see the finished product!"The more they studied the design, the more they admired Jocelyn. A woman of such extraordinary talent was rare. They were fortunate that she was born and raised in Nidora.The new rifle, also known as the fire lance, came in various sizes. Some were just over a foot long, while others stretched up to seven feet.Its design resembled
