After Transmigrating into a Book, She Boldly Deceived the Emperor

Ji Tong and Qin Sheng had been in love for six years. They thought their relationship was growing colder, and finally decided to have a proper talk. But on the way to the cinema, they got into a car accident.

Ji Tong transmigrated into a book.

The good news: They had become a powerful general with exceptional martial prowess.

The bad news: They had become a man.

Qin Sheng transmigrated into a book, too.

The good news: They had become the new emperor of a prosperous, peaceful empire, and had a System.

The bad news: They had become a woman, a frail empress who disguised herself as a man.

After returning victorious from battle, the general and the emperor met without recognizing each other. But when Ji Tong looked up at him, his bearing seemed strangely familiar.

That very day, she overheard Qin Sheng talking to the System.

At the sound of that inner voice, Ji Tong understood. Isn't this my taciturn boyfriend?

They had been in the same accident, so Qin Sheng searched desperately for Ji Tong in this world and barely paid any attention to the tasks the System assigned.

After a month of fruitless searching, he looked up at the sky and thought miserably that perhaps he really was the only one here.

Then, on the general's first day back from battle, Qin Sheng's System started shouting nonstop: "Go seduce him!!! Don't let him rebel!!! Please! My performance review! My farming novel!"

"What if I don't?"

In just a few months, he had to admit that his heart had changed. He had fallen in love with this person.

But what he had thought was mutual love turned out to be a plot to seize the throne. Qin Sheng was stripped of his imperial robes and imprisoned in the inner palace.

Bound to the dragon bed, he was utterly hopeless, until his hand found the dagger beneath him.

When Ji Tong returned to her bedchamber, she saw Qin Sheng with reddened eyes. The ropes that bound him had come loose and lay scattered around him, yet he sat upright on the edge of the bed, holding a dagger.

His voice trembled. "Did you ever have even a little genuine feeling for me?"

Ji Tong smiled. "What about you? Who do you really love, me or that girlfriend you say you've been in love with for years?"

--[A Guide to This Novel]--

[Theatrical, fun-loving heroine x Restrained, reserved, insecure husband-type hero]

※ Both transmigrate, and their identities and genders are switched at the beginning.

※ For various reasons, the hero doesn't recognize the heroine. She keeps teasing and deceiving him, and he is torn between falling in love with her and cursing himself for it.

※ Their identities and genders switch back later. Being born as the other gender is just a brief interlude in their lives, so the heroine is always referred to as "she" in the third person.

※ A little bittersweet angst for the male lead, but essentially a sweet romance.

※ One-on-one happy ending.
