Emperor Xian of Han's Empress Usurped the Throne [Three Kingdoms]

Reader's Guide:

Warning: Please read before starting!

The male lead is already decided: Guo Jia. If you like Lao Zhu, please be warned.

The female lead will become emperor in the end. If that's not your thing, please be warned.

The various warlords in this Three Kingdoms story have little presence, and there aren't many battle scenes. The focus is on romance, and some characters may act stupidly. If that's not your thing, please be warned.

The female lead is a modern person who transmigrates, not a native of the era. She first transmigrates into the Ming Dynasty as Empress Ma, then into the Han Dynasty. If that's not your thing, please be warned.

Synopsis:

The moment Ma Qingying opened her eyes, she had become the last empress of the Han Dynasty, the wife of Emperor Xian, Liu Xie.

At her wedding, she took off her bridal gown, disguised herself among the palace maids, and escaped.

At the same time, Zhu Chongba opened his eyes and discovered he had become Liu Xie, the last emperor of the Han Dynasty.

On his wedding day, Zhu Chongba changed into the clothes of a personal eunuch and escaped from the palace.

From starting out with a single bowl to ending up as the supreme ruler of the realm, Lao Zhu says there’s no one better than him at conquering the land.

Ma Qingying disguises herself as a man and plans to find a warlord who will hire her as a strategist so she can make a living.

Lao Zhu wants to find a warlord, get some troops, then break away and make his own way. The two meet on the road.

“May I ask your name, brother?”

Lao Zhu: “I am Zhu Yuan, courtesy name Chongba.”

Ma Qingying: “...”

This guy is pretty interesting. He has the same name as Lao Zhu, her husband in her previous life. A fine, imposing name.

Ma Qingying: “I am Ma Ying, courtesy name Qingying.”

Lao Zhu: “...”

Well, would you look at that? This kid dares to take the same name as his wife.

Everyone envies Ma Qingying for becoming empress and for being remembered in the histories as a virtuous consort.

But who knows that, as a modern woman, she has absolutely no desire to have her husband climb into other women's beds?

In this life, she wants to find a husband who marries into her family, one who won't take concubines.

P.S. The female lead is not Empress Ma herself; she transmigrated in her previous life too. (This is a Three Kingdoms novel inspired by Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and has nothing to do with official history.)

Theme: Life is full of surprises.
