The Empress’S Gigolo

Ren Baqian, a man of modern knowledge, finds himself unexpectedly thrust into a brutal and unfamiliar world where life is held in low regard. Facing an immediate execution at the hands of a cold and imposing Empress, he must rely on his wits and his grasp of modern sciences—from agriculture and metallurgy to chemistry and even skincare—to survive.

As he navigates a barbaric society that views his cultural contributions with skepticism and mockery, Ren Baqian must prove his worth to the powerful woman on the throne. Caught between a desire to return home and the necessity of serving an unpredictable empress, he embarks on a journey where his survival depends on his ability to outsmart a world that has never heard of China or its advancements.
