Empresses in the Palace: The Entire Harem Thinks I'm a Hidden Master

Reborn as Liu Zhu, Zhen Huan’s personal maid, I thought I’d been handed the cannon-fodder script: fiercely loyal, only to die in vain by throwing myself onto a blade. I never expected to awaken an Outstanding Employee Empowerment System from the start. As long as I spout corporate jargon with a straight face, I can unlock god-tier items! And so, the Forbidden City, once a place of eerie intrigue and rigid rules, underwent a complete makeover: While helping Zhen Huan get ready in the morning, Liu Zhu held an “agile daily stand-up,” rebranding feigning illness to avoid the emperor’s favor as “building a personal strategic reserve”; After removing the musk hidden in the begonias, Liu Zhu promptly produced a white paper on noncompliant talent optimization and biohazard risk control in the imperial harem; Faced with trouble at home and abroad, Liu Zhu whipped out a thousand-word memo on anti-monopoly measures in the harem and cutting costs while boosting efficiency in the imperial treasury. The Fourth Master studied it all night, trembling as he held the pages. “This is the lost statecraft of Guiguzi from the pre-Qin era! Lady Liu Zhu, you truly are the Qing Dynasty’s hidden imperial strategist!” Zhen Huan: “With Liu Zhu here, all I need to do is sit back and be the major shareholder.” Consort Hua: “What kind of demonic startup is Broken Jade Pavilion? My Yikun Palace is about to be shorted!” Liu Zhu, expressionless: “Don’t ask. The answer is a closed loop of fundamentals, empowering the harem’s central operations!” This novel and its characters are entirely fictional.
