Outwardly obedient, delicate white-lotus pawn of a consort, but in truth a cheeky little fox who talks his way through everything
[Book Transmigration]

Outwardly a debauched, useless emperor, but in truth a ruthless, gloomy obsessive who has endured hardship to bide his time

[Bottom's perspective]
On the way to teach in a mountain village, a landslide took the life of Jing Wuhen, a young kindergarten teacher.
When he woke up, he had transmigrated into the no-romance power fantasy revenge novel he'd just finished reading, becoming a doomed male consort.
In the book, the late emperor suddenly dies, and the other princes are still too young. The male lead, a lowborn eldest prince born to a palace maid, is installed on the throne. The great clans only want to raise him into a useless wastrel until the prince they support is old enough to ascend.
Everyone looks down on the male lead, an emperor who indulges in pleasure and kills without mercy.
But Jing Wuhen knows he is a cold-blooded madman, bearing a grudge against the chancellor's residence for murdering his mother, and patiently biding his time while pretending to be a fool.
As a male consort planted beside the emperor by the chancellor's residence, a spy meant to humiliate him, he is neither cherished by his family nor loved by the emperor. Aside from teaching, he knows how to do nothing. To stay alive, he has no choice but to use the tricks he relies on with students and their parents to placate the various factions...
·
Not long afterward
Emperor: Jing Wuhen is a clever and kind man. I will make him empress!
The princes, princesses, and consorts left behind by the late emperor: Though Consort Jing is a man, he is as considerate as a mother, guiding us forward and supporting us as we pursue our dreams. We're so moved!
The various powerful ministers: Consort Jing is such a capable spy. He not only watches the emperor but works hard to educate the princes and princesses, sob!
·
Later, the various factions finally realize...
This ridiculous emperor is actually a wise ruler.
This pawn of a male consort really has become an empress with real power.
The princes and princesses would rather become storytellers or go into business. Not one of them wants to be emperor.
Even the other consorts planted as spies in the emperor's harem resign of their own accord to serve the people outside the palace.
Only a bunch of old men obsessed with seizing power and usurping the throne are left behind, punished by the emperor and sitting in the imperial prison, bewildered: I really don't understand you young people!

[Top's perspective]
Reborn, Ying Jieming thought he would spend the rest of his life on the throne, scheming at every turn and alone, just as he had in his previous life.
With the detached intention of playing with someone whose fate he already knew, he agreed to the male consort's offer of allegiance.
Until he saw the man he was supposed to hate risk everything to save disaster victims, and toil with tears in his eyes in the face of devastation.
Those who once looked down on him, despised him, or feared him all gathered firmly at Ying Jieming's side because Jing Wuhen had come into their lives.
He was so vividly alive, bathing in the sunlight as if a god had descended, lighting up Ying Jieming's dark and empty heart.
