Lin Mo: “What? The court is forcing people to marry, and they hand out two wives first?”
By the time his turn comes, all that is left is the universally acknowledged “ugliest duo”! One has a birthmark covering half her face, while the other is chubby as a little ball, with pockmarks all over her face.
His comrades laugh at him: “You must be really desperate if you’ll take anyone. Guess you’ve never had the good stuff.”
Lin Mo rolls his eyes: “In the dark, the results are the same!”
[Ding! Empress-Raising System bound. Your ugly wife is the former dynasty's empress!]
Lin Mo: ???
He checks the other one on a whim and discovers she is the commander of the Imperial Guard!

Lin Mo is stunned: “Other transmigrators get cheats. Why am I stuck with two high-risk assassins as wives?”

What is the author doing? The empress?
