Her imperial brothers rebelled, stabbed one another, and all died. Xiao Lingyi was forced to don the imperial robes and become emperor.

But there was one huge problem: she was a woman! And an illiterate good-for-nothing who couldn’t even read all the traditional characters!

To save her entire clan, she decided to lie flat and coast, planning to be a mascot who did nothing but eat and wait to die.

But before the late emperor died, he insisted on arranging a marriage for her: the daughter of the Northern Suppression General, Gu Changning, a max-level war god who cut down barbarian tribes at fourteen and crushed the enemy vanguard at eighteen.

On their wedding night, desperate to avoid consummating the marriage and exposing that she was a woman, Xiao Lingyi went out of her way to provoke her.

She pretended to be a playboy, pretended to be sick, and even blurted out, “I’m actually impotent! You think you’re worthy of serving me?”

Gu Changning expressionlessly locked the bedchamber door, cracked her knuckles, and advanced step by step. “I learned military massage. I can fix all kinds of impotence. Your Majesty, forgive me.”

Xiao Lingyi huddled under her little quilt, trembling. Help! My warrior empress is trying to murder me!

The court officials all believed that once the warrior entered the palace, she would seize power and grind the useless emperor into the dirt.

Powerful ministers tried to force their way into the palace, censorial officials impeached her, and the old foxes racked their brains to depose the emperor.

Just when Xiao Lingyi thought she would have to pack up and run, her icy, unyielding empress took every open attack and hidden blow for her.

To preserve Xiao Lingyi’s imperial authority, Gu Changning silently endured the caning.

“Your Majesty, don’t be afraid. As long as I’m here, the Great Jing realm is safe.”

Looking at the woman before her, covered in wounds yet still shielding her, Xiao Lingyi’s eyes reddened.

My warrior wife is mine to protect!
