Cold Grass, Salty Pond

As soon as Yi Chuxiu transmigrated into a new body, he was sent to the emperor to become his male favorite.

He had planned to serve the country and its people as a good official, but after getting drunk, he ended up sleeping with the emperor. With his luck against him, Chuxiu had no choice but to run. Later, seeing the common people suffering, he could only return to office and carry on working diligently, all the while keeping a close watch on the emperor. He rose swiftly through the ranks, gained wealth and power, and became less afraid of the emperor. But he had only wanted to become prime minister, so why did he end up as the empress after all?
