(BL) The Ugly Empress

MC's sister was ignored. From the point she entered the palace, the emperor never slept with her.

The imperial consort was chased out the palace. Her brother was a general. He once offended ML coz of his sister. During battle, ML sent TY to become leader. Since there would be no two tigers in one mountain, that meant consort brother had to leave n return to beijing. He later rebeled n was killed. It was one of the reasons why TY was captured. TY already won the war actually. N ML used the opportunity to make TY his empress.

ML was actually suspicious of MC since long time ago. The change of personality was too great to ignore. But inner palace was guarded, there was no chance to switch person.

The person who first mentioned the empress was Teng Yun to ML was actually ML's youngest brother subordinate (the one who tried to take the throne before). That make 3 person instead of 2 as i previously mentioned 

Woah. You read so fast. I wanna know, the body MC transmigrated the second time, is he family of Teng Yun? Cousin or something?

So I finally finished vol I

As mentioned above, MC was excellent strategist. He often gave insight to ML. And people knew that the empress was resourceful. ML liked to see MC in action, meaning when he was full plotting in concentration. The serious face n eyes were really interesting.

MC's country got annexed by ML's empire. MC never thought that a day come where his dad became Marquis instead of king n had to pay respect to him (MC in empress body)

ML had youngest brother who was stationed in the border. When the late emperor passed away, he couldn't come back to mourn. Now he returned to capital in pretense to pay respect. He actually wanted to seize the throne. But he failed. ML wanted to kill him but the ministers begged him not too. After all they shared the same blood.

And two people knew MC's identity. A minister who found out coz MC's hand movement when he was doing archery.
TC also knew that the empress was Teng Yun coz the words he had said to him before. These words, TC taught to MC when MC was a child. 

Spoilers plss 

The general doesn't love the king. He's a spy for ml. The reason he hates the king is because when he was young the was also young and some how got the general''s family murdered.

1)The king knows the general is straight so the king will dress in women's clothing for him.
2) the general takes off the kings clothes and starts to have sex in front of a minister? While in bed there is a curtain but the general left it open for all to see. The king didn't want ppl to see him like that but he did it because he loved the general.
3) the general is not gentle. He has rough sex with the king even though the king is sick and bleeding.
4) the general knows the king is in pain but he doesn't stop the general. He just takes it.
5) when the king was sick very sick. He sent the general's servent to ask the general to visit him but the general wouldn't.

Idk. It sounds worse when u read it in the story and this is in the very beginning of the story. I know later they both love each other but the beginning of thier story was really sad so i skipped it. I skipped all of their story through out the novel. 

Does anyone know if this book has an audiobook version? 

I don't understand too cause the mtl said that MC was in woman body now. Which one is right? Although the point of view always use he and him

Recap 3

- ML had MC to serve him but he refused, saying that he was ill. MC wasn't an idiot. He knew he had to survive in the palace. But sleeping with enemy? The person who killed him? He drew his line there. They ended up sleeping on the same bed together though

- they got up late. Princess n delegation from MC country came but ML let them wait. He was still with MC. Cause he wanted they to know their position as the losing country.

- the next day was the ceremony between ML and princess from MC country (his relative).

- Little prince came to show his writing to MC and talk about art of war. Mc was torn. This was ML kid. He would be teaching his enemy!
Little prince saw that MC was distracted and asked if, 'mother, do you want to see new horse?
MC loved horse but MC refused this time.
Finally little prince told him not to worry about new concubine. He thought that MC was unhappy these days cause of new concubine. He adressed MC as mother now and respected him.

- at the wedding night, ML went to MC's palace. MC was annoyed. Did ML think he doesn't know his mind? being with MC, he let the princess know her position. ML was using MC. His cold demeanor was interesting for ML. ML kissed him and they ended up sleeping together on the same bed. really sleep. Not doing anything. MC couldn't sleep all night though 

That's what confuse me there, since it says Empress (niangniang?).

@Selax is it that :
MC die, transmigrated into woman body (Empress), die, transmigrated into male body, ORMC die, transmigrated into Empress body (male cross dressing as female) and later got outed as male? 

Danmei with emperors in ancient china are my favourite "watches thread".
