A gentle, timid, sweet and lovable little empress dowager x a cold, taciturn emperor whose love runs deep
#TheEmperorWantsToCommitACrimeEveryDay#
Song Qingyue goes from an illegitimate daughter of a powerful family to empress and then empress dowager in less than a day.
Her name is hastily entered under her legitimate mother's name. Wearing a phoenix crown and ceremonial robes as a legitimate daughter of the Song family, she enters the imperial palace...
to bring good luck to the dying old emperor.
She has only just received the empress's title and phoenix seal when Song Qingyue takes off her wedding dress, puts on mourning clothes, and kneels in the mourning hall.
The more devastated she looks, the happier she feels inside.
After the new emperor ascends the throne, Song Qingyue expects to enjoy a comfortable life. But little by little, she realizes things aren't going to work out that way...
The new emperor is temperamental, violent, and merciless. He keeps coming to her palace to freeload on her food, which is bad enough, but what does he mean by climbing into her bed?!
One night, she pushes the man on top of her away and gasps, "I'm the empress dowager!"
Meng Jue laughs softly. Brushing aside the hair damp with sweat on her forehead, he meets her gaze and says, "You can be my empress, too."
Important: Both leads are virgins. The male lead is the old emperor's younger brother, so there's no mother-son relationship! It's just a cheerful, sweet romance!
Theme: If our love is separated by mountains and seas, then mountains and seas can be overcome
