My Cool and Reserved Imperial Tutor Is My Wife (GB)

A seemingly cold and aloof but actually guiding heroine? A seemingly detached yet unconsciously flirtatious, beautiful and tragic hero. Lou Jun was once the empress of a matriarchal kingdom. After the underworld mistakenly judged her case, she was forced to die young. To make it up to her, the underworld sent her to be reborn with her memories intact in a new world, where she could enjoy a carefree life. At first, she thought she could live a peaceful, comfortable life from start to finish. But when her elder brother went missing on the battlefield, Lou Jun had no choice but to fake her death, disguise herself as a man, take her brother's place, and shoulder his responsibilities. She planned to return to her carefree life once her brother came back, but an unexpected mishap threw everything off course. A young man foolishly offered her his heart, placing it right in front of her. Before she knew it, she had fallen into his trap and willingly joined him in levelling the world, governing the country, and bringing peace to all under heaven. The young empress sat high upon the dragon throne, looking down at the minister who risked his life to remonstrate with her. Her voice left no room for argument: "I want the whole world." "And I want my Imperial Tutor too." Notes: 1. Female lead tops, male lead bottoms. If that's not your thing, don't read. 2. The female lead is unequivocally dominant. The male lead will never surpass her. 3. Neither the male nor female lead has children. They have normal biological anatomy. The following is the blurb for my next novel. Feel free to check it out if you're interested~~ "Overstepping One's Station" In the twenty-fifth year of the Tianyan era, eunuchs hold sway. Ning Fanyin, the chief eunuch, controls everything and wields power over the entire court. She shows no respect to the emperor above her or the officials below. Everywhere in court, people condemn Ning Fanyin. If each person said just one thing, the spit alone could drown her. Of course, they only say it in private. The current emperor has no children, only one son. Now, everyone in the realm hopes that this elderly prince, who has yet to marry, will produce an heir. When Ning Fanyin hears the news, she tips up the chin of a certain middle-aged bachelor, a meaningful smile playing at her lips. "What do you think, Your Highness? Shall I find you a fine wife?" The man kneels halfway on the edge of the bed and begs with his face tilted up. "Fanyin knows I don't have that kind of stamina." Ning Fanyin raises an eyebrow. Her smile vanishes, and her eyes turn dark as ink. "What if Your Highness were in better health?" The woman lifts the man's hair ribbon, covering the eyes that stir her heart. The man shivers in her grasp and says, "I still wouldn't marry." Distracted for a moment by his breath against her palm, Ning Fanyin presses on. "What if you married me?" After a long while, the man finally whispers, barely audible, "I'm old and no longer handsome. Fanyin should find herself a younger man." "Smack!" Xie Yunyu is flung back onto the bed. When he looks up again, the woman has vanished. Ning Fanyin thinks the man looks down on her because she is a eunuch, but she doesn't know that Yunyu is simply afraid, afraid he won't be able to stay by her side for long. He is nine years older than Fanyin. Not only is he old, but his health is poor. Fanyin is so wonderful, and marrying him would be a waste. One day, he will no longer be good-looking. He will always grow old before Fanyin, and even if she still loves him then, he will die before she does. What will Fanyin do all alone when that day comes? Wouldn't that leave her just as she was before? PS: 1. The female lead is a eunuch in this matriarchal setting (though it's only by definition; there's nothing physically wrong with her). This is a major content warning! 2. The female lead was raised by the male lead. She had a difficult childhood, so she has a rather extreme personality. 3. The male lead loves the female lead very much, but various circumstances have kept him from accepting her. 4. The female lead will forcibly pursue the male lead, including marrying him against his will. Don't read if that's not your thing~ Theme: Be self-reliant and strong.
