In a Matriarchal World: The Emperor's Consort Is My White Moonlight

[Matriarchal Society + Sweet Romance + Childbirth + Mutual Devotion]

On the day Jiang Anhe ascended the throne, the entire court assumed she would choose the son of a military family as her imperial consort to stabilize the realm.

But when the imperial decree was read, naming Su Yanci, the son of a disgraced minister, as her consort,

the court erupted.

Everyone knew the Su family had been implicated in a corruption scandal. Their male heirs had been sent to the palace as potential husbands, and the best they could hope for was the title of imperial consort.

But the truth was that, at the royal banquet years ago, a young man in a pale moon-white robe had sat in a corner playing the zither. The way his fingers glided across the strings had been like a shaft of moonlight, falling into her heart.

When Su Yanci first entered the palace, he was so nervous he expected only cold treatment and humiliation.

But he never imagined that...

Her Majesty the Empress wasn't the stern, humorless, ruthless ruler the rumors made her out to be...

The setting is matriarchal in terms of biology and social status, but this isn't a power fantasy.
