Gender disguise + mechanisms and formations + adorable kids + all-round talent + mild mystery + metaverse
Hao Se, an expert in mechanisms and formations, transmigrates into the body of a low-ranking official who disguises herself as a man. It is a hellish start from the very beginning. With no other choice, she becomes Prince Rui Jing Yi's lackey, then gets caught up in a bewildering, world-shaking conspiracy and inexplicably gets forced into being a cute little kid's mother.
One day, the now all-powerful Chancellor Hao breaks down in tears: I treated someone like a brother, but he wants to sleep with me!
Emperor of Nanyuan: Who dares sleep with my boss? Beat him to death!
Emperor of Xirong: Who dares steal our god of war? Destroy them!
Young Lord of Yannan: Who? Everyone get out of my way. Let me... sleep with him!
Adorable kid: Mommy, I'll protect you.
Regent Jing Yi leans over. “May I ask if you're all talking about me?”
Everyone immediately deflates. “We'll be going, then. Sorry to bother you.”
Sigh, that unhinged big shot is powerful, shamelessly flirtatious, and utterly brazen. No one dares mess with him.
It's a good read. I love the crazy, yandere male lead and the beautiful, cool, and skilled female lead who also knows about mechanisms and formations. The plot and romance develop in tandem, and the author's writing is excellent. Thumbs up! I love watching the interactions between the male and female leads; they're so sweet, flirtatious, and hilarious. I also love seeing the Crown Prince and the Prince together; their banter is absolutely brilliant, it makes me laugh so hard! The foreshadowing and suspense are really well done.
