In the novel, the male lead's life is legendary. Later generations praise him as an emperor for all eternity and a wise ruler for a hundred generations. He becomes the quintessential model for academic research and the film and television industry. But before the male lead becomes emperor... Cao Buwen looks up at the beautiful person beside his father. The new consort his father has just appointed is strikingly beautiful, aloof, and elegant. In other words... the male lead. The male lead has entered the harem disguised as a woman and is still working his way up. He's a long way from becoming an emperor whose name will live on for millennia. To survive, Cao Buwen thinks he can still save the situation. For instance, he can carefully nurture the beautiful love between his father and the male lead. As long as their relationship stays as strong as ever, the male lead won't turn evil later on, kill his husband and son, or usurp the throne. Maybe his family's ancestral throne can be saved, too. The only problem is that his cheap father is far too fickle... When his father takes a new favorite, Cao Buwen rushes over to comfort him: "Your Highness, don't worry. You're the only one in Father's heart..." When a palace maid tries to seduce his father, Cao Buwen hurries to comfort him: "Your Highness, those maids are shameless. Father still loves you..." The more he says, the less he believes it himself... Remembering that the original character died of a chill, Cao Buwen leaves his windows open every night. But instead of catching a cold, one night he finds an unexpected visitor waiting for him... Song Zhen closes the window again, then turns toward the person sleeping on the bed and approaches step by step... "Your father wronged me. You should understand the principle that a son pays for his father's debts..." Cao Buwen doesn't think he should understand that... Once, his father made him empress. Later, his older brother also made him empress. He is the empress dowager, and also his sister-in-law. Now he's ascended the throne, and insists on making me his empress. The ministers secretly grumble: We thought that Song traitor was a once-in-a-century beauty who could ruin a country, but who knew the Third Prince was the most devious of them all... Sickly, lazy-fish prince gong X strong, healthy, powerful empress dowager shou P.S. The relationship between the protagonists only develops after their father and older brother die. Song Zhen is a man disguised as a woman. Both are virgins. A silly comedy with no logic. Warnings: 1. The gong isn't domineering, and the shou isn't delicate. 2. The shou is so beautiful that people take liberties with him when he's vulnerable (limited to touching his face). Next novel: Transmigrated as the Male Lead's Concubine Gu Dixian transmigrates and becomes the male lead's concubine, kept outside the household. Because the concubine looks like the male lead's idealized first love, the male lead keeps him like a pretty ornament. His first love is quiet, gentle, and refined, with a voice like an orchid in a secluded valley. So the concubine must smile without showing his teeth, walk with the delicate sway of a willow, and speak as little as possible. He just needs to play the part of a pretty ornament in front of the male lead and quietly remind him of his first love. Unfortunately, the concubine is too ambitious. He's been given money, but he also wants the male lead's heart. He even tries to hurt the first love, so the furious male lead kills him with a single stroke. In the end, the wicked concubine gets what he deserves, and the male lead finally gets together with his first love. Gu Dixian thinks this job sounds great. He can get paid just for not smiling or talking. What a deal! So Gu Dixian quietly hides the jewelry the male lead gives him, waiting for a chance to run. Then he turns and gives the male lead a demure, gentle smile, drawing on the professional skills of a Haidilao server to make sure his boss is satisfied. Then he hears that the male lead's first love has returned, and Gu Dixian knows his chance has come. Later: Gu Dixian: I changed my face. I thought he wouldn't recognize me. The male lead: We already have a child. Don't think about running away, or I'll break your son's legs. Later still: Gu Dixian: I like people who are quiet, gentle, refined, and have nice voices. It's fine if they don't talk... The male lead pushes their wailing son out of the room and smiles faintly. "Isn't that exactly what I am?" Theme: Live earnestly and positively. Being happy is what matters.
