[Reborn + transmigration + empress + substitute + two powerful leads + political intrigue + jealous male lead] After dying from overwork, I transmigrated into the body of a substitute empress. From the start, the Empress Dowager forces poison down my throat, then a powerful minister grabs me by the neck and interrogates me. The entire court wants to kill me, the “fake emperor,” and the System keeps issuing missions designed to get me killed. I only want to stay alive, but the powerful minister Xie Heng keeps pinning me in place with a gaze that dares to defy his sovereign. “Your Majesty, if you keep trembling, I may have to examine you myself.” I discreetly clutch my dragon robe tighter. “My dear minister, I really am a man!” He chuckles. “What a coincidence. I do enjoy helping ‘men’ out of their clothes.”
