Synopsis
Ji Cheng stood beside her bed, staring at her face in wonder, questioning if it was real. A smile appeared on his lips as he saw her eyelashes fluttering, signaling that she was waking up. However, her reaction was far from what he had expected.
“Pak!”
He stared at her in shock, covering his face with his palm. Did she just slap him?
Xie Ming's mouth opened in pure terror as she realized what she had done. She slapped the Emperor. The cruel and infamous Emperor of the Ji Dynasty?
‘Am I going to die again? I just came to this world; do I have to die again?’
....
Zhao Ming was the Empress of the Ji Dynasty, but in name only. Never treated or respected as the Empress and witnessing the worst of palace life, fate gave her another chance to shine. One day, when she opened her eyes, she found herself in unfamiliar surroundings—a world full of people using strange items, a world apart from hers. Will the Empress of the Ji Dynasty be able to survive in this competitive world?
**
Xie Ming was the wife of the richest businessman in the country, with a reputation for being nothing but trash. She was labeled a rebellious brat and a shameless, lazy woman. When she opened her eyes one day, she found herself in a strange world.
Holy Sh*t!
She had become the Empress of the Ji Dynasty. Can this rebellious, shameless, lazy woman adjust to the cruel, strict palace world? Will she change, or will she change the world instead?
Can the Emperor get used to her being proactive in every single thing? Even in bed? The Emperor dotes on his wife to the point that she feels exhausted. How can a man be this cute? It should be illegal for men to be this cute.
...
She pushed him onto the bed and sat on his body, looking at him with her tempting eyes.
“Zhao Ming, what... what are you doing?”
“Shh... Your Majesty, you just need to relax. I will do all the work.” She leaned in and sealed his lips with her moist lips, making him crave her even more.
Can the switch between Zhao Ming, the Empress of Ji Dynasty, and Xie Ming, a known rebellious troublemaker in modern times, bring a spark to the lives of those around them and unveil the hidden connection between them?

Here is the author’s review. I am dropping this review because I wanted to answer a few questions of our new readers who are here to look at this novel. Right now, the novel has 679 chapters to it, so you can be assured because I have incorporated almost everything that you might be wondering about. Q. Is this is an original novel or a translation like other Chinese novels on webnovel? Ans. This is an original story written by an Indian author who is just using the Chinese characters for this novel. Why? Because I like it. Q. Is it a cliche transmigration novel like others? Ans. It is cliche at some points. In starting you might find it similar to other transmigration novels you have read since that is how the story begins with. However, this is not your typical transmigration novel. The differentiating point is, unlike other novels, this one has two-sided transmigration. Just as the synopsis talks about, it has a two-sided transmigration story which tells the story of both are FLs. It means, there are two female leads where you get to read not only the modern times story but the ancient one as well. Q. How many chapters will this novel have? Ans. Right now we are already near 700 chapters. Even though I am planning to end it with 1000 chapters, however, if the story demanded, it might take a few more chapters. However, don’t worry, it’s not going to be a ridiculously long story. It might take some more chapters since I don’t want to end this work with a hasty ending. After all, the ending of the novel should be a satisfactory one. Q. Does this novel have grammatical issues? Ans. Of course. Every novel has, this might have some more. Since this was my first novel, I was kinda lost and inexperienced in writing at that time. The writing style might not suit your taste and to warn you, the starting chapters have a lot of grammatical mistakes. However, I think it’s enough to give you an outlook on the story. I want to edit those chapters but can’t do that anytime soon. So if your main focus is a fun story rather than grammar, then you can give it a try. However, if you can’t stand the poor grammar, then you can leave it. But I can promise you, with the later chapters, the mistakes become lesser and writing becomes better. If you can’t read this one due to poor grammar, you can look at my other novel, My Evil Genius Wife which has a similar yet different transmigration story. (Pinging the other novel as well) Q. What is the update schedule? Ans. The update has been changed to 1 chapter a day and there will be no update on Tuesday. The mass releases will be given at the author’s choice. Also, the update schedule can be changed due to any reason, but it will be notified through the Instagram page. So follow me on Instagram to know any change in the update schedule. Kamlyn_love. Q. Are Male lead’s a scumbag? Ans. Hmm..without spoiling you further, let me tell you that you are gonna love both of the MLs. You might not feel so at the start but as the story progresses, you will fall in love with them. Just read and you will know what I am saying. Q. Why two-sided transmigration? Ans. I choose to write this story because we have so many one-sided transmigration stories. One girl takes over another girl’s body and starts living like her. But what happened to the owner of that body? Does she always have to die? I don’t think so. You will get to see the other female lead’s story from volume 2nd, probably chapter 74. So if you are thinking of dropping it, just read that part first and I am sure you won’t be able to drop it. Keke. ( kinda proud of Xie Ming, you know.) Q. Does it have showbiz? Ans. It does. For our female lead in modern times, you will get to see her showbiz experience. However, it will remain as experience only. Her medical skills will be part of her whole journey and in later chapters, you will get to see more of it. Q. Do you hate white lotuses? Ans. Well, I do hate them. However, you will get to see them frequently and it just makes the whole story more fun. You can hate them all you want, but don’t hate the story because of it. Q. Is this novel privileged? Ans. Yes. Right now, it only has 1st tier which costs only 1 coin and you will get to read two advanced chapters in exchange for that. However, I request you to read all the instructions of privilege before buying to avoid any confusion later. Also, privilege means unlocking the chapters in advance which costs extra coins. However, the premium chapters will be updated at the same pace and can be unlocked by coins or fast passes. I tried to fill all the questions I could think of. If you have any more, you can ask in the replies. Also, for our new readers, don’t be afraid of reading the first few chapters because of grammar, if you get through this grammatical storm, you will get to read the interesting and mysterious journey of our female leads, who will make you laugh and cry at the same time. Don’t hesitate, just read.

Chapter 1: Pitiful Death..(Edited)
A dull ache throbbed at the base of Zhao Ming's skull. 'Oh, my head…' She hadn't yet opened her eyes when the sobs of a girl reached her ears. "Young Madam, you must wake up. How tragic it is, your loveless marriage."
"Master hasn't even visited once in the three months you've been in this coma. No matter what's keeping him away, you're still his wife. He should be here," the maid lamented, tears flowing.
Zhao Ming's mind raced. 'Young Mistress? What's going on?' For a fleeting moment, she considered this might be the afterlife.
After people die, they are believed to go to heaven or hell. Where is she now? Who is crying and mourning for her so miserably?
'Did I really die or... No. It can't be a dream.'
Because the painful memory of her death was still vivid to her. She wasn't the sheltered Young Mistress, surrounded by luxury and affection. Nor does she have anyone to mourn like this for her.
Rather, she was Zhao Ming, the daughter of the esteemed military doctor, Zhao Bai. A lineage defined by unwavering dedication to their country. The Zhao family had selflessly served for generations, but their reward?
Betrayal, public humiliation, and a cruel demise.
Zhao Ming had inherited profound medical knowledge from her father. But rather than serving the people, her heart had other plans. She fell deeply in love, forsaking her legacy for romance. Her beloved was no ordinary man but Ji Cheng, the Crown Prince.
As the daughter of Zhao Bai, the trusted military doctor and physician to His Majesty and confidant to the old emperor, her union with Ji Cheng was both a tale of love and destiny.
While their marriage was arranged by the Old Emperor, for Zhao Ming, it was a matter of the heart. The moment she laid eyes on Ji Cheng, she was captivated, entangled by a love that was both instant and profound.
Betroned by the old emperor to be with the Crown Prince, Ji Cheng, she had hoped for a love story.
The first time Zhao Ming laid eyes on Ji Cheng was in the old Emperor's chamber when they were young. She was instantly smitten, feeling a depth of emotion she had never known. Yet, despite her genuine affections, he remained indifferent and cold, never even sparing her a glance.
Their first meeting, in the old emperor's chamber, had been a whirlwind.
She had hoped, perhaps naively, that time and patience would soften the edges of their relationship. But the events of their wedding night dispelled those rose-tinted illusions. Instead of the gentle intimacy and understanding she yearned for, she was met with his blood-shot gaze and forceful actions, making her feel less like a cherished wife and more like a mere possession.
Still, she rationalized this might be the norm, unfamiliar as she was with the dynamics between spouses.
The loneliness that followed was a stark contrast.
Shortly after consummating their union, Ji Cheng departed for war, leaving his new bride to fend for herself in the sprawling palace. Newly married, yet left isolated in her vast chambers. To her, the palace felt like an unfamiliar maze, echoing with eerie silences. Without Ji Cheng by her side, its grandeur became oppressive, each shadow hinting at unseen threats.
Her love ran so deep, that she endured the constant belittling from her mother-in-law or even the servants who were treated better than her. Her background wasn't noble; she was the offspring of a military doctor, not of royal lineage.
In stark contrast, Ji Cheng's new consort, Xiao Li, a princess from another kingdom, was celebrated and pampered.
With the old Emperor gone and only the Empress Dowager left, Zhao Ming found herself cornered, her respect dwindling. But after being crowned as the Empress of the Ji Dynasty, she wore her title-like armor, hiding her vulnerability.
She bore the indignities, hoping that one day Ji Cheng would see her worth and return her love. But love betrayed her, once again.
Instead, she encountered betrayal on a fateful night by the pond.
Pushed by an unseen hand into the watery abyss, she found herself sinking. Although she knew how to swim, it was as if her senses betrayed her. Her thoughts were hazy, her limbs felt numb and heavy, and her vision was clouded. The water around her grew darker as consciousness began to slip away.
The cold water enveloped her, and as she sank deeper into its embrace, fragments of her past began to flicker before her eyes like a disjointed movie. There she was, a young girl full of hope and dreams, staring with adoration at Ji Cheng.
The saddening moments of silent yearning, the sting of his indifference, the whispered cruelties from other consorts, and the sharp rebukes from her mother-in-law. Each memory seemed to pierce her heart anew, reminding her of the love she offered and the pain she received in return.
The overwhelming weight of her unfulfilled desires and shattered dreams dragged her down, and the encroaching darkness threatened to swallow her whole.
Her last thought was a desperate yearning for Ji Cheng's affectionate gaze, but death claimed her first. Before she passed, her last memory was of suffocating darkness and the bone-chilling cold of the water.
It was downright eerie and terrifying.
Upon awakening, memories of her past surged, causing a sharp pang in Zhao Ming's heart. Who could harbor such intense animosity towards her? She hadn't wronged anyone, so why this?
Her past love had cost her everything: dignity, family, and life itself. She didn't even know who her enemies were in that treacherous palace.
What comforted her was that she was free from that palace—a place that had stifled her every breath and drained her joy with each passing moment.
Beyond its walls, even hell would seem a heaven to her.
