The male empress from the apocalypse

Title: "The Male Empress from the Apocalypse"

Synopsis:

After years of struggling for survival in a zombie-infested world, Shen Yi, a ruthless and resourceful survivor, finally meets his end-only to wake up in the body of an abandoned male consort, locked in the Cold Palace. But instead of despair, Shen Yi is overjoyed. No zombies, no starvation, no constant life-or-death battles-just warm porridge? This is paradise!

Determined to live a peaceful life, Shen Yi hoards food like a dragon guarding its treasure, treating every bowl of porridge as a priceless delicacy. His unusual behavior catches the attention of palace servants and soon... the emperor himself.

One fateful day, Emperor Li Zhen, who had long forgotten this consort, happens to stroll near the Cold Palace. He sees Shen Yi happily munching on steamed buns with a fierce possessiveness in his eyes. Something about the sight tugs at Li Zhen's curiosity.

The emperor starts visiting, at first out of boredom, then out of genuine interest. Shen Yi, however, doesn't care about imperial politics-he just wants to eat in peace. But when rival concubines and scheming ministers try to take his food, Shen Yi shows that he's still a man from the apocalypse-merciless, cunning, and fiercely protective of what's his.

What happens when the emperor, who once abandoned him, starts falling in love? And when the empire faces internal strife, will Shen Yi step in with his apocalypse-honed skills and rise to become the Male Empress?
