After transmigrating to an exceptionally cruel otherworld, Su Zhe can't stand staying there for even one more day. He wants to die!
But...
"Your Majesty, forgive my bluntness, but with the dynasty in turmoil, you should execute your older brother first!"
The Empress: "You make a good point. Kill him!"
"Your Majesty, your younger sister is throwing the court into chaos and threatening all the officials. You should kill her too!"
The Empress: "That's very reasonable. Execute her!"
"Your Majesty... What the hell, just kill me already!!"
Su Zhe can't understand why the Empress refuses to kill him, until one night, when she personally prepares a whole table of food.
"Su Zhe, you are a rare genius the likes of which appear once in a thousand years. I like you."
