Beloved Empress Novel

★★★★★ ☆☆☆☆☆ 4.3

Chapter of 148

She died a fool’s death, consumed by a love that was never returned. For two years, Empress Mo Qiqi had been a bitter, jealous tyrant, a laughingstock in the imperial court, all for a man who wouldn’t spare her a single glance. Her tragic end, an affair born of desperation, was a whispered scandal. But when her eyes opened again, the woman within was gone. In her place, a new Empress arose, one determined to redefine virtue itself. This new Mo Qiqi would be the epitome of generosity, a beacon of selflessness. She would personally scout beauties for the Emperor, coach them on winning his favor, and even dangle the sacred Phoenix Seal as a prize for whoever could best *satisfy* him. Her plan was flawless, impeccable, designed to please in every possible way. Yet, the Emperor, infuriatingly, refused to play along. He rebuked her, contradicted her at every turn, and sent her hand-picked beauties packing. If he didn't like women, perhaps his tastes lay elsewhere? Mo Qiqi, ever the accommodating Empress, then presented him with a meticulously curated selection of handsome men, from every walk of life. They, too, were summarily dismissed. Frustration simmering, the Empress decided to take matters into her own hands. She strode into the Emperor’s bedchamber, a picture of virtuous concern. “Your Majesty,” she began, her voice dripping with sympathy, “do you suffer from… an unmentionable illness? Rest assured, I shall arrange for discreet treatment.” The Emperor’s sword-like brows shot up, his eyes suddenly dangerous. He advanced, a predator closing in. “Tonight,” he commanded, his voice a low growl, “the Empress will serve me.” What happens when an empress dedicated to finding her husband a lover accidentally stumbles upon the truth of his desires? And what unmentionable secrets will be laid bare in the process? The game of thrones has just begun, and the Empress is playing for keeps. Dive into "Beloved Empress" and discover a court where nothing is as it seems, and love is the most dangerous weapon of all.
