Serious blurb:
The once-untarnished Donglin Jun fell into the hands of Qi Shang, the demon empress of the realm, through a moment's carelessness. From then on, he endured humiliation and served the empress, treading on eggshells with every step.
Everyone believed he must hate Empress Qi.
But one day, Donglin Jun told his closest friend, "I regard A Shang as my sovereign and my wife. My resolve will never change."
Lighthearted blurb:
Everyone knows that Empress Qi keeps a great many "beauties."
Empress Qi: "..."
Rumor has it that Ruan Donglin, the foremost of the Eight Talents of the Eastern Capital, is to be the empress's next beauty.
What? The Ruan Donglin who grew from a child prodigy into a distinguished young man, and declared, "As long as Qi Shang is in power, I swear I will never serve her"?
The common folk: Get the peanuts, melon seeds, and drinks ready. This is going to be quite a show.
The officials: The demon empress is ruining the country! The nation is doomed!
The emperor: (Hugging a beauty and living in a drunken stupor) The empress has such good taste! Hahaha...
Empress Qi: Ruan Donglin? (Eyes profound, posture relaxed) He's not bad.
Villainous big boss Empress Qi x refined yet steely Young Master Ruan
P.S. The emperor is completely useless. Empress Qi is the one who holds real power and the creator of a golden age for the Eastern Capital.
The female lead isn't lovesick. She is the biggest villain of all.
One-on-one pairing, happy ending
