The lovestruck, domineering Emperor VS an innocent, “lecherous” little princess! Published under the original title A Phoenix Resting on the Jade Terrace! A delightfully zany romance by the screenwriter behind the hit comics I Don’t Want This Either and The Beauty Becomes a General! I’m just a little princess adored by everyone, so how did I end up as the third-place laureate in an enemy kingdom, with the emperor forcing me to “use my charms to serve him”?! Your Majesty is wise and mighty! Your Majesty and I are made for each other! Your Majesty, how have you been?
Yang Cong: Your Majesty is always right! I will obey Your Majesty’s every command! Your Majesty is wise and mighty! Your Majesty and I are made for each other!
Emperor: ??
When the northern and southern dynasties arrange a marriage alliance, Princess Yang Cong of the Northern Dynasty disguises herself as a man and travels to the Southern Dynasty. By a twist of fate, she takes the imperial examinations and places third... Even worse, she discovers during the palace exam that the emperor is the “beauty” she teased at a tavern the other day! To save her own skin, Yang Cong has no choice but to keep her head down and play the perfect “treacherous minister,” desperately hiding that she’s a woman. But serving the emperor with her “charms” is far harder than it sounds!
