[A beautiful but useless woman who transmigrates x a scheming young empress dowager]
In the twilight of the late emperor's life, Empress Shen died suddenly. He made her younger sister his new empress and bestowed upon her the title Chunxi.
Empress Chunxi was only sixteen. At her empress-making ceremony, she wore a gown of pale yellow and crow feathers, looking as lovely as spring snow. Her beauty became famous throughout the land.
At the time, the late emperor's youngest daughter was already over seventeen.
Their harmonious marriage, with the couple treating each other as honored guests, became the greatest laughingstock of the court.
After the late emperor's death, Empress Chunxi became Empress Dowager Chunxi. The emperor, who was ten years older than her, had no choice but to grit his teeth and call her “Royal Mother.”
She became the most mysterious empress dowager in history.
She was young, and before that day came, no one knew anything about her.
Mei Xiao was a third-year college student, an idle beauty and a pretty face with no brains. After watching The Fake Huan's Tale more than ninety-nine times, a mysterious System captured her and tossed her into a period of time that had never been recorded in the history books.
On her first day in the palace, she found a beautiful young woman who had fallen in the imperial garden.
The beauty's knees were bloodied. Sitting beneath a pear tree, she tearfully ordered Mei Xiao to drop dead on the spot.
Mei Xiao: “Could you let me live for two more episodes?”
Chunxi: “...?”
From then on, Mei Xiao's life in the harem revolved around two things: making the empress dowager angry, and finding her delicious food to apologize.
“Little girls shouldn't always look so stern.”
“...How dare you!”
“Try this pastry.”
“You... put it down, then make another plate.”
Years later, the young empress dowager would always remember the woman she had met in the imperial garden that day.
She was as beautiful as moonlight and rosy clouds, but not especially bright.
This empress dowager loves beautiful fools best.
What? The emperor likes her too?
Then have the emperor... no, the former emperor, escorted to the imperial mausoleum. [Ahem]
Later still.
“Royal Mother, spread your legs a little wider.”
“...Shut up!!”
Reading tips:
1. The two leads grow together. There is a little court intrigue. This is not a mindless, fluffy power fantasy.
2. The setting is fictional. I gave back everything I learned about history a long time ago, so don't sweat the details.
3. The author has a bad temper and will swear at people. Trolls, stay away. No need to announce whether you're leaving or staying.
