One Hundred Thousand Vegetable Group

Zhao Du'an, a government official leading a cautious life, finds himself transported to another world where he becomes the favored 'pretty face' of a female emperor and an oppressive, power-abusing villain. Before he can relish the moment, he faces mortal danger for releasing a national criminal. Cornered and desperate, he plans to soothe the female emperor to seek mercy, only to discover his 'leading gigolo' role is a sham. 
Worse still, his notorious reputation prompts officials and heroes alike to impeach and eliminate him; and martial artists and clerical magicians consider him a disgrace. Overwhelmed, Zhao Du'an decides it's better to stop being human to survive.
Starting by betraying his allies, he becomes the Emperor's top lackey. Years later, amidst heavy snowfall in the capital, the female emperor Xu Zhen Guan sighs atop the city tower, 'It was supposed to be a pretend companionship, how did it turn real...'
Also known as 'Deceiving and Flattering at the Court of Great Yu', 'The Record of a Villain Going White'.

The Empress's No.1 Lackey

"Master Zhao, please follow me, Mr. Yuan is dealing with some affairs and has instructed me to take you to the inner hall first."


The one who came out to meet him turned out to be a young Imperial Censor.


He led Zhao Douan inside, chatting as they walked, his gaze still curiously sizing him up, seemingly intrigued by this recently famous favorite of the Empress.


Zhao Douan nodded with a smile, straightened his appearance, and proceeded down a small path towards the back office.


The Imperial Court of Supervision was also a complex of buildings. Perhaps because it was not yet time to disperse, there were not many people to be seen on the road.


After entering the inner hall, the young Imperial Censor departed.


He had not waited for a quarter of an hour when he saw a familiar figure of Big Qingyi approaching slowly through the courtyard outside the hall.
