Power Under The Skirt

The Crown Prince is dead, and the Great Xuan Dynasty is in turmoil.

The rebel army is at the gates.

To stabilize the situation and uncover the cause of death of her twin elder brother, Zhao Yan, Princess Changfeng, has no choice but to disguise herself as a man and take on the role of the Eastern Palace Crown Prince, facing the wind and shedding blood.

On the night she enters the Eastern Palace, the Empress repeatedly admonishes her, “As the only prince of a different surname in this dynasty, the cunning Prince Su has controlled the court and the military for many years. His ambitious nature must not be underestimated!”

Hearing this, Zhao Yan feels like she’s walking on thin ice every day, her heart pounding.

Until one day, Zhao Yan is ambushed.

When she wakes up, everything is chaotic, and there, the powerful Prince Su, with his disheveled hair and half-dressed attire, looks at her with his dangerously handsome and slightly raised eyes.

This is bad!

Zhao Yan’s mind goes blank, and she turns to run.

In the next moment, her sash is caught.

Prince Su sneers and his voice carries a hint of displeasure, “Running away so soon, isn’t that improper?”

“The Little Crown Prince” with ink-black hair scattered and a pale face stammers, “I… I’m going to review the memorials.”

“Sure.”

The man leisurely hooks her hair strands, his voice low and hoarse, “As the Crown Prince reads memorials, I shall read the Crown Prince.”

——–

People used to say that the naturally rebellious and unruly Prince Su has changed his ways, no longer causing trouble or rebellion, but instead assisting the Crown Prince. He stays overnight in the Eastern Palace every day and even shares a bed with the Crown Prince.

Who would have thought that one day, it would be revealed that the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace is actually a girl disguised as a boy, causing turmoil in the court.

The whole court is in an uproar, and everyone speculates that Prince Su will seize this opportunity to overthrow the imperial power and take over.

However, during the court interrogation, Prince Su, draped in a black cloak, bows in front of the civil and military officials, reaching out to hold the delicate fingertips of the young girl.

“Don’t be afraid, let’s move forward.”

His voice is stern yet reassuring, as he calmly states, “If anyone dares to speak ill, I’ll kill them; if heaven obstructs, I’ll defy it.”

Oh I love this so much! I cried a lot reading about FL's regrets towards her twin brother but despite all that, she's very headstrong and dedicated to continue on the path that her brother started and ultimately died on. Her twin brother is the definition of a gentleman and it sucks that he died so early but thankfully the author added him in the extra chapters, so hooray!

The ML to me, is very similar to the ML in the other author's novel, Marry the villain. They are both very... more>> smart, went through a lot of trauma, and just wants to destroy everything. But I really appreciate that unlike other stories where after the moment ML falls in love, his plan for revenge is just basically forgotten, this story's ML didn't. So the FL worked hard to make him see the brighter side of the world despite being surrounded by corrupt people. She put a lot of effort to help him have the revenge he needed without hurting innocent people which was his intended goal initially.

Their romance started slowly and eventually it was super fluffy to the point that I am so jealous. I read the story MTL but I'll definitely read it again once the translation is complete. Give it a try! <<less

I really enjoy this book but I've read it mostly MTL.

Up to chapter 52, the story is about a princess in disguised to stand-in as Crown Prince for her twin brother who tragically died too soon at the request of her Empress mother. She has to fight against other heirs to keep her brother's status as well as investigate his death.

The ML's role is that of a tyrannical Wang of a different surname (Wang status is typically bestowed to only princes of the current royal line). He acts as... more>> the emperor's right hand and executioner.

There is a weird issue I have with the Empress mother.

Spoiler

1. How long did she expect FL to be the Crown Prince?? 2. She forces FL to entertain the Crown Prince Consort candidate... it doesn't make sense with how fearful she is of FL being exposed, yet believes that her daughter can deceive so many people?
