Let’s get this straight: I’m a modern male college student who transmigrated into a frail young woman and eventually donned the imperial robes to become the founding empress of Southern Sui.
The whole process was utterly surreal, downright absurd.
At first, I just wanted to survive.
During the household power struggles, I used logic and microexpression analysis to manipulate a group of sheltered women with ease.
My adoptive mother, eyes wide with shock: “That wretched servant girl… What happened to her? She’s like a different person!”
Later, I only wanted to uncover the truth.
On the battlefield, I used middle-school math for triangulation and assembly-line management to overhaul logistics.
General Lu Xinghe, looking at me with admiration: “Truly, Mr. Su is a god among men!”
After that, I only wanted to build a career.
At court, I used modern psychology to advise a prince, overcoming one obstacle after another and putting him on the throne.
Prince Chen Li gazed at me tenderly. “With you, sir, I could have the whole world!”
I thought this was the story of a dragon-slayer helping a wise ruler.
But then my identity was exposed, and he turned on me on the spot, thinking a cup of poisoned wine would send me to my death!
His excuse? “How can a woman meddle in politics?!”
Me: “???”
I sneered. Fine. If you won’t let me serve as regent, then I’ll become emperor myself.
“Generals, heed my command! Purge the traitors at the emperor’s side and set the realm right!”
It’s just a throne. I’ll sit on it myself!
