Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

“I command King of Nieta to give the kingdom’s princess. I will return to the empire with the princess.”

The memory of my previous life came to my mind the moment I became a hostage to the empire, this is the world inside the imperial childcare novel, and I was the heroine’s mother.

The mother who died giving birth to the heroine according to the cliché law of childcare novel.

I didn’t want to die, so I tried to run away, but I was caught as soon as I left the stables.

“My hostage was trying to run away.”

That too, the emperor of the empire, the person responsible for it.

There was nothing I could do until I was dragged along and became an empress.

Then I tried to become an empress who went unnoticed and abandoned.

“Let’s always sleep in the same bed. You and me.”

But, why the hell is the emperor in my palace?! Does he have nothing to do?

The empress dowager only says that when she sees me, I remind her of when she was young and cries.

The emperor insists on not visiting the empress dowager.

The mother and the son seemed to have a bad relationship, so I reconciled them….

“If Your Majesty is being mean, tell me secretly. Then I’ll help you somehow.”

Even the empress dowager, who had regained her son’s love.

“I have never been attached to anyone. But I kept my eyes on you.”

Why does this handsome emperor suddenly look at me with his twinkling eyes….

I really want to run away.

If I had a baby with this man, everyone would be happy except me.

But why can’t I leave the man who whispers that he’s lonely?

I feel like this novel was a kind of love letter to the mother of Who Made Me a Princess.

The FL suddenly recalled the future of what happens if she becomes the 'empress consort' (aka concubine) of the emperor, where she dies giving birth to the ogFL. Its a really good premise and one that's oddly not explored a lot. I loved the ending of how it explained how she could remember the future.

In the novel, you can see the growth of the MC from a cute 'hamster' to someone... more>> who
Spoiler

lures and kills her half sister that has ab*sed her throughout her childhood by getting her ripped apart by animals in the woods

. She doesn't become cynical and bitter though, but she definitely grows into becoming a true Empress in her pursuit of power in order to be able to protect herself.

The ML, for once, isn't the indifferent and quiet brooding type. He's more of a playful but politically smart emperor that likes MC for her spirit in the beginning and thinks of her as a pet, but then gradually genuinely falls in love with her.

The progression wasn't too slow and they actually become a real couple just midway through the book.

Now for a HUGE SPOILER (don't read if you don't want to) :

I love love love how they made the future ogFL basically become a badass genius who lives to over 500 and becomes tired enough to want to redo one of the few regrets in her life: saving her mother, even though it would mean probably never being born. You never really see what happens to those FLs beyond they married and had a kid, the end. I wish she had some scenes though, instead of just being mentioned by some characters.

The FL is definitely not combat-savvy, or has some grand financial plans, but she learns from the people around her and does a pretty good job of becoming more politically savvy.

This novel was more of a romance than anything though so there's a lot of scenes between her and the emperor, and for once, communication! We love to see it. <<less

I may not have read far but I can say that this novel is quite... Funny. The FL is someone who will forget who she is speaking to within a few minutes of conversation and I think she takes pride in being unable to do most things... But she is interesting. We have a few interactions between the ML and FL but it's mostly him seeing her as some hamster.
