The Chancellor Is Always Picking Fights with Me

This novel is complete, so jump right in!

By imperial decree, Zhi Nan, the legitimate daughter of the Vice Minister of Works, was made empress.

Before the wedding night could even begin, the frail emperor unexpectedly dropped dead... and Zhi Nan was promoted straight to empress dowager.

From then on, she worked diligently from her seat as empress dowager. But halfway through, a vicious chancellor appeared.

“Chancellor, what should we do with Lord Wang, who contradicted you at court yesterday?” “Cut out his tongue.”

“Chancellor, what should we do with Lord Li, who submitted a memorial accusing you?” “Cut off the hand that submitted it.”

“Chancellor, the empress dowager seems very unhappy with what you proposed today. What should we do?” “Ignore that fool!”

To save her own life, Zhi Nan went to great lengths to find something she could use against the chancellor, but through a strange turn of events, she uncovered a shocking secret!

The cold, ruthless Chancellor Mu was actually her husband, who had died in the prime of his life!

A little scene:

Mu Yinan was playing chess with a friend in his study, speaking proudly about his wife. “My wife is gentle and kind, and excelled in every art.”

Zhi Nan happened to bring in tea and snacks and overheard him. She gave him a cold look. “I remember you used to call me a fool.”

Mu Yinan's legs and hands instantly went weak. He put on a fawning smile and begged for forgiveness. “I was unwell then, and blind as well. Please don't hold it against me, my lady.”

Reader's guide:

1. The male lead is not reborn, nor has he transmigrated into someone else's body.

2. This is a completely fictional setting. Don't compare it to real history!

3. As usual for Mu's novels: both leads are each other's first and only, one-on-one, happy ending.
