Name: The Absurd Empress: Putting the World in Its Place
Author: Blood Cocoon Dreamweaver

Synopsis

Su Zhan, an utterly straight special forces soldier, transmigrates one day into an empress.

Looking at the tyrant forcing himself on her in the dragon bed, and the court full of officials calling out, “Your Majesty,” he breaks down and roars, “I’m a straight man!”

But nobody believes him. The beauties in the harem want him in their beds, the ministers demand he choose more consorts, and the tyrant blocks his palace door every day. “My beloved consort, last night I learned something new...” (cut off)

Su Zhan kicks the tyrant aside. “Get lost! I’ll teach you how to build a catapult!”

As the empress uses a straight man’s way of thinking to invent things and govern the country, turns the harem into a military workshop, and gets the court building steam tanks

The tyrant’s eyes fill with hearts. “My beloved consort, I... want to learn how to make crossbows~”

Su Zhan rubs his forehead. “In this wretched palace, who’s actually the emperor?!”

(Absurd empress × yandere tyrant who forces himself on him. A straight man transmigrates and gets things done, until the tyrant’s coup turns him into a glorified errand boy!)
