After the Feudal Emperor Was Forced to Serve in Bed

Shen Ji, founding emperor of the Great Qian, was born into poverty. He devoted himself to governing and spent half his life at war, finally uniting the land and achieving greatness.

Because years of war had left too few men of fighting age, he enacted a strict law early on to ensure the nation's lasting peace and protect it from foreign threats: men were forbidden from loving one another, on pain of being exiled a thousand li and made slaves.

When he died, all he wished for was that the Great Qian would endure for generations.

But when he opened his eyes again, something was very wrong!

He'd become a man who loved men, one who had been abandoned and reduced to being a substitute bride. Shen Ji nearly fainted.

The new emperor of an enemy nation had a powerful desire for men and loved them exclusively. Shen Ji nearly fainted again.

The new emperor fell in love with him at first sight and wanted to make him empress. Shen Ji fainted for good.

Shang Zheng had once served the Great Qian's Emperor Taizu, earning the title "Prime Minister in Black" and a reputation as the greatest strategist in the land.

After his achievements eclipsed those of the emperor, he died young and found himself, a hundred years later, reborn as a prince of Nanping, the Great Qian's enemy.

He repeatedly outmaneuvered his rivals in the chaos and successfully seized the throne, only for the Ghost General who had shaken Nanping to take advantage of his youth and harbor treacherous intentions.

He deliberately summoned the Ghost General's son to the palace to spend the night.

But before anything could happen, the man fainted. Interesting.

He was a substitute bride, and he already had a lover outside the palace. Even more interesting.

When Shang Zheng discovered that this counterfeit looked exactly like the man he had served in his previous life, he smiled. This was far too interesting.

Shang Zheng's only joy in life: tormenting the former ruler of Kongtong every day.

Shen Ji's greatest misery in life: being scared half to death by a lunatic every day.

Little scene:

Shang Zheng tensed all over. "Why is my lord crying? It truly pains this subject."

Shen Ji bit the quilt.

Shang Zheng pressed on. "My lord is trembling so much. This subject deserves to die."

Shen Ji gasped for breath.

Shang Zheng smiled without stopping. "My lord is glaring at me. I must have offended you."

Shen Ji bared his canine teeth and grabbed him by the collar. "Shut up and do it!"
