Best Friends in a Famine Year: Marry the New Emperor and Kill the Treacherous Ministers

[Dual transmigration + famine + spatial storage + communication between past and present + fighting + face-slapping and punishing scum]

Their family heirloom porcelain basin became sentient, and Shen Nanqing and her best friend Zhou Yijin both transmigrated to ancient times. By a twist of fate, they became sisters-in-law in the same prince's household.

They heard that the men they'd married were doomed to die young.

If we'd become widows right after getting married, we might as well not marry at all. Let's run!

Refuse the imperial decree and your entire clan will be executed.

Since we can't go back, we'll stay here.

For now, we'll have to cling to our husbands' coattails.

Prince Yan Gu Yanzhi and Prince Cheng Gu Mubai led an army of 100,000 to guard the border, only to be surrounded by 500,000 Northern Desert troops.

The heavens were unjust: a severe drought brought famine.

With nowhere left to turn, the two best friends fed the army in the name of the gods.

The brothers offered gold and silver treasures to honor the gods.

With the food they received, the brothers conquered the Northern Desert, purged the court of corrupt officials, executed the wicked empress, eliminated treacherous ministers, ascended the throne, pacified the four seas, and expanded their territory.

One day, the brothers discovered that all the gold and silver treasures they'd offered to the gods had ended up in the hands of their two princess consorts.

The goddess they'd vowed to honor with a temple turned out to be the women sleeping beside them.

The brothers shamelessly clung to them.

“Consort, would you give this prince a whole brood of little goddesses?”
