Synopsis

Jiang Mian x Feng Qixiao

[Cross-dressing as a woman, groveling pursuit, forced love, two male leads, pregnancy]

Jiang Mian was raised as a girl from childhood, kept in the inner courtyard and brought up by his uncle.

He was originally the Jin Prince’s fiancée.

Then one day, the Qi Prince took control of the capital.

An imperial decree summoned him to the palace as a consort.

The new emperor and the Jin Prince were sworn enemies. His entry into the palace was merely a celebration of the new emperor’s ascension.

He struggled to hide his identity from the new emperor.

But things only backfired,

and he caught the emperor’s eye.

After finally escaping,

he was ultimately brought back to the inner palace.

This time, his secret was laid bare before the Son of Heaven.

He could not escape his fate,

nor could the Jiang family!

Feng Qixiao finally claimed the throne and became the supreme ruler of the land.

The canary he had originally kept to amuse himself and pass the time

had somehow found its way into his heart.

When the cruel truth was revealed,

he learned that everything had been a lie.

The identity was false,

so that love, ha,

was naturally false, too…

Ha…

He had thought that after conquering the world,

he could still be fooled by the canary in his hand.

No matter what your identity is,

from now on, you’ll be the bird in my cage!

Secondary couple

Jiang Changling x Ji Hongxuan

Former empress consort, then powerful minister, then emperor x emperor gong who becomes a loyal dog gong

Jiang Changling was once a promising eldest legitimate son in the prime of his life.

After enduring schemes in the inner household,

he became a captive consort in another country.

Then he transformed,

took control of the court, and became a powerful minister whose word could determine the fate of the realm.

He overturned the old order and ascended to the supreme throne!

Ji Hongxuan went to another country

and unexpectedly acquired a canary,

which he brought into his harem.

Who could have known that this canary would capture his heart?

In that case, I’ll make the whole world your cage,

and invite you in…
