Mistake Behind Vermilion Walls

A woman transmigrates into an alternate dynasty and becomes an abandoned concubine in the Cold Palace. She is forced into a life-sharing pact with a tyrant who died young in history: if he dies, she dies too. To survive, she has no choice but to use modern management techniques to reform the tyrant. Gradually, she discovers that the "tyranny" recorded in history was really a smear campaign against reforms blocked by powerful clans. Together, they take on the great aristocratic families and establish a new government.
