The first thing she did after becoming Zhao Gao was pull down her pants to confirm her sex.
She could put plotting to usurp the state aside for now. As a workaholic for the ages, she just wanted to throw herself into building the country's infrastructure. To make sure she wouldn't be exposed in this nest of scheming experts in no time, she first made sure to give herself every physical characteristic a man should have.
Unifying the realm required military supplies. Industry and agriculture called for new inventions. She could even get involved in the palace intrigues surrounding the young emperor.
Rumor had it that the treacherous minister Zhao Gao couldn't have the young emperor, so in a fit of rage, he killed the emperor's one true love!
Zhao Zheng, who had also been reborn, started by making a list of people he had to kill. With personal grudges and national hatred to settle, Zhao Gao was unquestionably at the very top.
The situation was unstable, so he put his hatred aside for the time being. He decided to make use of everyone on the list first.
He never expected that once he'd gotten used to having a certain someone around, he'd never want to let go.
In the end, the young emperor kissed the "man" with the magnificent beard.

Short scene
Zhao Gao: I'm very happy with this script, "Building Infrastructure in Great Qin." It's just that the male lead is a little young.
Young Emperor: Why am I holding a guide called "How the Young Emperor Wins Himself Over"? Is it because I don't stand high enough?
Reader's guide:
1. If you demand historical accuracy, please don't read. Corrections to any logical errors are welcome.
2. The female lead disguises herself as a man, and the male lead is reborn.
3. A serious tone, focused mainly on the career plot. The romance develops slowly.
Blurb for the next story, The Oriole in Her Palm
(1)
The world is in chaos, and the old emperor is senile and consumed by lust. He wastes the people's wealth and labor on extravagant construction projects for his newly arrived consort.
The people complain bitterly, cursing the Su family's daughter as a fox spirit and a harbinger of ruin.
Crown Prince Li Che is flawless as white jade, elegant as an orchid. He can command the world with a stroke of his pen and shake the mountains and rivers with his banners. The officials and common people alike pin their fervent hopes on him to restore the Great Zhou to its former glory.
At a banquet for the court officials, the fox-spirit consort sways her delicate waist and holds out a crystal cup to the crown prince with her slender fingers. Her misty, watery eyes tease him like tiny hooks, as though she has something to say but can't bring herself to say it.
Even the monks chanting prayers lose their composure.
The old emperor is ill but not dead yet. How dare the bewitching consort make her move already?
The senior officials in court can't stand it, privately muttering that the realm cannot remain stable until this calamity is eliminated.
Fortunately, the crown prince is proper and composed, as cool and distant as ever, and remains unmoved.

The only daughter of the Su family is not only peerlessly beautiful and alluring, she also has a voice as melodious as a nightingale's.
She has been cherished by her family since childhood and was betrothed at a young age to her childhood sweetheart.
But an imperial decree forces Su Muyan into the palace. She hears that the old emperor's moods are unpredictable, and none of the women in his bedchamber ever leave in one piece.
Su Muyan lives in constant fear, walking on eggshells each day. She hopes that one day she can seize the chance to escape the imperial palace and retreat to the countryside with her childhood sweetheart.
She's heard that the noble and virtuous crown prince cares for all under heaven. Though she knows he dislikes her, Su Muyan has no choice but to fuss over him and show him concern at every turn, just to stay alive.
Not long afterward, the emperor dies, and Su Muyan finds a way out of her desperate situation. Before the crown prince can return in triumph, she sneaks out of the palace with the eunuchs and leaves with her childhood sweetheart.
On their wedding night, ten thousand cavalry suddenly storm the courtyard. Four arrows come from nowhere, pinning her husband's limbs to the wall.
The crown prince, clad in cold iron and covered in blood, walks up to her with a bow in hand. His eyes conceal a murderous intent.
The man slowly wipes the blood from her cheek with his hand and asks with a faint smile:
"Little oriole, always trying to escape and never behaving. Should I break your legs and clip your wings too?"

I suddenly thought about a question. There has been no way to enter the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang. Does this mean that there may be someone he loves very much who is staying with him in it and does not want to be disturbed by anyone.
Does the heroine have no impression of Jing Chun? Chapter 31: Didn't Yan Chu tell the heroine that it was Jing Chun who sent Yu Jiang to the Gaoling Lord's Mansion? He also said that he served the King of Qin. Now Brother Zheng reminds her to be vigilant. Don't you think it's abnormal?
I hope you can write more articles of this type! The little white text on the list looks so painful!
Alas, I don't feel like a domineering president at all, but it's a bit funny, hahahaha
It really stopped all of a sudden
The person who has worked the hardest in this article is actually Wei Zhong, so funny
Like the heroine, I always feel that Brother Zheng is like that. My lover is work, and my lover is the workaholic of the country.
Hostess: Oh, man, my idol is better as expected←_← Brother Zheng: Why is this different from what I thought?
I don't think it's worth it for the female protagonists written by many authors to pay for the male protagonist or male supporting role. However, I think this male supporting role written by the author is very worthy of the sacrifice.
It's very beautiful and I also learned a lot of words haha
