Stranded in the Land of the Ugly: Offered to the Tyrant Empress from the Start

Xiang Yi transmigrates into a kingdom of "ugly women."

Here, women rule and men are beneath them. Every woman is hideously ugly, yet they are fierce warriors with astonishing strength!

Rumor has it that the empress is hideously ugly and cruel by nature, a mass murderer known throughout the neighboring kingdoms as the "Female Tyrant."

And as luck would have it, the neighboring kingdom sends Xiang Yi to her as tribute.

That night, captured and ordered to attend the empress in bed, Xiang Yi is trying to figure out how to escape the tiger's jaws when the Female Tyrant coolly says,

"Grind ink for Us!"

Watching the masked Female Tyrant, rumored to drink blood and eat raw flesh, review memorials, Xiang Yi grows curious and takes a look.

"The court is short on talent, and factions are everywhere. It's all because officials are selected from the aristocracy. Why not hold imperial examinations and recruit talent from far and wide?"

"The warhorses are wearing out because their hooves keep coming off. Horseshoes would solve the problem!"

"And..."

As Xiang Yi speaks confidently and offers advice on governing the realm, the empress is stunned. A keen gaze peers at him from behind her mask.

"I screwed up. Did I say too much?"
