Xu Huai, a history researcher, got rejected after confessing to the woman he admired and went drinking alone.
Who would have thought that after sobering up, he would transmigrate to a completely unfamiliar dynasty and become its emperor?
Even more frightening, he not only awakened the ability to read minds, but also discovered that one of the imperial consorts looked exactly like the woman he admired!
The consort's surname was Xia. In the original owner's memories, she was gentle as water and quite endearing.
When Xu Huai first met her, his feelings were complicated. He was just working out what to say when he suddenly heard:
"It's about time I got to sit on the throne, too."
Then he heard:
"The dosage is just right. The plan will soon be put into action."
W-was this consort actually planning a rebellion?!
Xu Huai set his priorities: staying alive first, fighting back second.
After countless battles of wits with the consort, Xu Huai took off his imperial robe and looked at Noble Consort Xia's astonished face with a smile.
"I'll come clean. I've wanted to give you the throne for ages! I've wanted to teach you history for ages!"
Reader's Guide:
1. Neither the male nor female lead is a virgin.
2. The dynasty is fictional, with many invented details.
3. You're welcome to chat with me.
To clarify why the male lead isn't a virgin: Before transmigrating, he was a virgin. The original owner was the emperor and wasn't a virgin. After the male lead transmigrated into the original owner's body, he didn't touch any other women besides the female lead.
