Can Even a Macaque Become the Emperor's White Moonlight?

After dying from overwork, Lin Yao transmigrated into a book and got bound to the Amazing Monkey Simulator.

System: Congratulations, Host! You've been reincarnated as a top-tier monkey with glossy fur and lively features!

Lin Yao: ...You call that congratulations?

System: This System's ultimate goal is to help you become the monkey among monkeys, the king among monkeys, and His Majesty the Emperor's one and only true love!

Lin Yao raised her monkey paw and looked at it. Do I look human to you? How am I supposed to be the emperor's true love? Open your electronic eyes and take a good look. Is this the kind of species that can fall in love?

System: Please work hard, Host.

Work hard at what?

Even worse, she landed at the Heaven-Worshipping Ceremony, right on target, and smacked straight into the young emperor's head.

After falling from a great height and getting so frightened, the monkey couldn't help peeing.

The people knelt in worship as bells and drums rang. A monkey was perched atop the emperor's head, spraying pee.

The Minister of Rites fainted on the spot. The Imperial Astronomer was so terrified that she turned pale. In the end, they reached a conclusion: A divine monkey has blessed the emperor's head with heavenly rain! An auspicious sign! A most auspicious sign!

And so Lin Yao was brought into the palace, where she got fine clothes, good food, and only one assignment: keep the emperor company.

But he was the most miserable background character in the whole book! His mother died young, his father didn't love him, his brothers stabbed him in the back, and in the end he was pushed aside by Prince Duan, left to bear a lifetime of infamy. What did that have to do with her, though? She was just a monkey.

Eating and drinking, raiding nests and picking peaches, rolling around on the imperial bed, using memorials as bedding. Wasn't this the good life? Just lie flat!

Until one day, the emperor suddenly heard her thoughts.
