I Am the Empress, and You're Still Telling Me to Run Away?

Lin Xuan transmigrated into the world of a game he'd made, only to discover that he was a remnant of the previous dynasty, destined to be wiped out in the Revolt of the Five Princes a few years later. To prevent this tragedy, Lin Xuan decided to persuade Zhao Yuehan, an official in the Ministry of Commerce under the legendary empress, to flee with him...

"Brother Zhao, the Empress Dowager is about to die. Let's run away together!"

"Brother Zhao, the Five Princes are about to rebel. Let's run away together!"

"Brother Zhao, the empress is about to die. Let's run away together!"

...Who knew that Brother Zhao, who was disguising herself as a man, wouldn't panic at all? Instead, she asked Lin Xuan about affairs of state. For the sake of his escape plan, Lin Xuan answered every question. What he could never have expected was that one day, the legendary empress Ji Handan would appear before him and say, "I am the empress you said was about to die. And you want me to run away with you?!"
