The Empress Becomes an Illegitimate Daughter of a Powerful Family

Ji Ning was once the Empress of Great Zhao. After years in government, she was a wise and enlightened ruler, a sage among women. One day, she woke up as an illegitimate daughter in the twenty-first century, burdened by an awkward identity and mocked by everyone.

At a film festival, her half-brother, movie star Yan Ze, saw Ji Ning and his expression changed drastically. "Who brought you here? I have nothing to do with you. Don't think you can mooch money off me!"

But when he turned around, Mr. Xie, a top entertainment industry mogul for thirty years, was respectfully attending to Ji Ning, calling her "Your Majesty" again and again.

The dynasty had changed. The world had changed. She had changed, too.

But it seemed something had stayed the same.

The medical authority of a century-old family, Mr. Gu; Meng Zhan, a top star with millions of fans; genius scientist Fu Jingchen; and Huo Yue, the richest man on the wealth rankings, all dropped to their knees before her, ranging in age from seventy to twenty.

Everyone was stunned.

Mr. Gu, once a royal physician of Great Zhao: "My legs went weak when I saw her."

Meng Zhan, once a general of Great Zhao: "My legs went weak when I saw her."

Fu Jingchen, once the top scholar of Great Zhao: "My legs went weak when I saw her."

Huo Yue, once the imperial husband of Great Zhao, fell silent for a long while.

"Mr. Huo, did your legs go weak, too?"

"No. I'm much too hard."
