[High Status and Power] [Overwhelming Need for Control] [Everyone Loves Her] [Ruthless Minister] [Domineering CEO Heroine]
[An Emperor Substitute Who Is Beautiful Despite Being Stupid and Evil, with Stockholm Syndrome (Fake Male Lead)]
[The Late Emperor, Upright, Kind, Restrained, Gentle, and the True Male Lead]
An Yan, a domineering female CEO, transmigrates into a male-oriented political intrigue novel called The Emperor's Gambit. It tells the story of the hero ascending the throne amid internal strife and outside threats, purging corrupt ministers and powerful chancellors, defeating the empress dowager, and finally taking personal control of the government.
Unfortunately, An Yan transmigrates as the foremost of the treacherous ministers destined to have her entire clan wiped out: a female chancellor disguised as a man.
According to the plot, after being convicted, her identity as a woman will be discovered. She will be forced to serve as a camp prostitute and abused, then executed by a thousand cuts.
An Yan looks at the male lead, who is currently biding his time and pretending to be a useless emperor, then at the court full of her own allies. Gradually, she develops the usual problem of domineering CEOs.
She hands the male lead the script of the tragic romance's white-lotus substitute heroine. She also puts a rosy filter on all the supporting women and men, making sure the male lead is constantly humiliated and framed, while she keeps striding down the path of becoming a treacherous minister.
But then...
The empress dowager and the imperial consorts: Why didn't Lord An come to the harem to listen to music today?
The civil and military officials: Chancellor An is the only wise ruler we wish to follow!
The people and the army: We know only Chancellor An's kindness, not the emperor's decrees.
The enemy general: If not for An Yan, Chu would be ours for the taking...
The emperors of rival kingdoms: What on earth has the emperor of Chu done to make such a great talent as An Yan follow him? No, we have to find a way to capture the emperor of Chu and make An Yan trade himself for the hostage. Then An Yan can belong to me! By the way, what treasures do we have back home? Hurry up and send them to Sir An by urgent courier, eight hundred li a day, so we can cultivate a bond in advance. I must make him see how wonderful I am!
The little emperor male lead, reborn after being abused by An Yan and now suffering from Stockholm syndrome: So it was you who secretly held Chu together... You punish me, control me, imprison me, and torment me. You must be doing it for my own good, right? The blows land on my body, but the pain is in your heart! What have you done wrong? You just love me too much!
An Yan's eyes turn into a painter's palette, flashing with three parts cool indifference, three parts mockery, three parts nostalgia, and one part nonchalance. She delivers the CEO's signature line: "Don't fall in love with me. You're nothing but his substitute. Your smile isn't like his. Smile again!"
-- The little emperor may be beautiful, but the late emperor still has his charms.

An Yan at first (crawling around in a dark mood): I can't let anyone think I'm a treacherous minister. I must protect the world!
An Yan later (smiling, healthy and confident): I am a treacherous minister, and I will protect my world!

Note:
Stockholm syndrome, also known as hostage identification syndrome, refers to an emotional bond in which victims of a crime develop feelings for their abusers, such as sympathy, identification, admiration, affection, or dependence. They form a harmonious, friendly relationship with them and may even help their abusers. It includes unhealthy psychological responses such as idolizing the powerful, wanting to survive, and submitting when faced with the threat of death.
Reader's Guide:
* I'm a simple country bumpkin, so the heroine is the strongest person in the world, and everyone, men and women alike, loves her.
* This is probably a serious story, but don't expect the male lead to be stronger than the heroine. He gets the script of a tragic romance, complete with all the cathartic red-eyed, waist-grabbing, and leg-breaking tropes. (What can the heroine be blamed for? She just loves too much.)
* The little emperor is a substitute, and he's genuinely awful. He's at the top of the blurb only because he has the most plot. The true male lead is the late emperor, who appears later.
* The heroine is an autocratic but mature and reliable woman in power with immense personal charm. This is a gender-bender romance, and it's exactly my thing. If you don't like it, please move along.
* They say a character's intelligence depends on the author's intelligence, so please don't insult me.
* If you happen to pass by and find this isn't to your taste, there's no need to kick over someone else's bowl. Please respect niche kinks and help preserve this rare genre. Dear readers, please don't mention me under other novels, and if you're leaving, you don't need to tell me. Don't mess with me out of malice, either. This is just a niche story I wrote for my own amusement. It won't achieve anything, won't affect your success, and certainly won't compete with you for a spot on the rankings. So don't go picking fights with me for no reason.
Finally, I hope all my dear readers find something delicious to eat.

Let me also recommend my upcoming novel, My Chuunibyou Diary Came True. Here's the blurb. If you like it, please add it to your collection:
[My Chuunibyou Diary Comes True] [Travel Between Two Worlds] [Dark Mary Sue]
Bai Ling transmigrates into her own chuunibyou diary.
It's a little embarrassing. According to the original plot, she should have left behind her pathetic life as an office worker and become the empire's most doted-on princess, reaching the pinnacle of life.
The problem is that all her Mary Sue settings have turned into a grimdark world!
Her Xiloya Empire has become a decaying human dystopia defined by highly centralized rule, religious domination, and extreme xenophobia.
Her father is a warmongering tyrant and an extreme control freak. To keep an eye on all his people at all times, he transformed himself into the sun in the sky.
Her mother is a neurotic, violent empress with manic episodes who loves her children so much that she raises them like dogs, keeping them chained up in case Bai Ling runs away.
Her brother is a taciturn killing machine, using brutal, merciless methods for conquest, colonization, and governance.
Even the so-called gods are bizarre creatures from the subspace, capable of mutating people at any moment.
They have all become monsters, and yet one thing hasn't changed: they still follow the central premise of her chuunibyou diary. They all love Bai Ling.
They love her so much they want to kill her and swallow her whole.
Worst of all, the male lead, who should have fought through countless hardships and leveled up along the way to save her, is so useless that her brother kills him right at the start.
With nowhere else to turn, Bai Ling puts on the male lead's mask and "kidnaps" herself out of the empire. Then she discovers she can travel between two worlds through her diary.
*
The people of the real world will never forget that day.
A great demon from subspace rampaged through real space. The empire's expeditionary fleet invaded the real world, surrounded Blue Star, and demanded the return of their missing princess. Otherwise, they would launch a planetary destruction strike and blow all of Blue Star into rubble to prevent subspace contamination.
The missing princess, Bai Ling, who was enjoying breakfast, raised her face, exhausted from working so much overtime she was nearly dead, and silently finished the jianbing in her hand.
With steel wings behind her, a brilliant halo behind her head, a sacred crown above it, and a chainsword in her hand, she hovered in the sky over the shattered battlefield of the real world like a saint descending to earth. Without the slightest embarrassment, she shouted her lines at the stunned humans, imperial troops, and invading demon minions: "You puny ants, how laughable! I sentence you all to death today! Prepare yourselves!"

Theme: Dare to resist tyranny
Isn't this just the beginning? I thought it was going to be the climax and it would be over? Actually, I don't think I have time to write, so I can take some time off and write slowly. It's such a pity. The beginning of this book is pretty good. Alas [holding my chin]
∶Maybe I came at the wrong time: You came at the right time. Jpg
I haven't slept with my good mother and Lao Ye yet! Ahhhhhhh I don't agree
A little nonsensical fantasy, daily life in the empress's harem, a small theater for two mothers to raise their children together, or pretending to travel to other worlds for role play
Hahahahahahahaha, I thought it was pure love but suddenly it turned into an impact hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha What I thought was pure love suddenly turned into an impact Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha It's really a future with tenosynovitis_(: D)∠)_
Is there any more? Is there any more? Teacher, do you still have any? If not, please stimulate your passion for creation and write fiercely. My children still want to read QQ.
Others have traveled through time. Since it's modern times, it's perfect for writing a lot of play posts.
Ahhhh! That's right. The bad mother stays there to plot, and the good mother comes to play with Xiaoyan. When will the next chapter be? (^~^)
I want to watch good mothers and bad mothers compete on the same stage.
I want to see her life after returning (??`)?, And the follow-up in ancient times (see what the bad mother is going to do)
