[Transmigrate into a book + pamper the regent + the golden finger is the power to change the plot]
While taking a nap at the hospital, Lu Jinyan transmigrates into a novel. From the start, she lands in the middle of an assassination attempt, as the empress dowager whom everyone in the story wants dead.
Lu Jinyan: Is this really what transmigrating into a book is like???? Surely not!
The main characters want to kill her, ministers coveting supreme power want to kill her, and even her adopted son can’t stand her. She’s truly everyone’s enemy!
Fortunately, she has a System. As long as she diligently completes missions and takes good care of the child, she can earn chances to change the plot.
Assassin: Today, I’ll have the head of this wicked woman!
Lu Jinyan, her hand trembling: Then I’ll write your blade breaking.
Palace maid: I’ll sneak out and deliver a message to set her up. This is going to be great.
Lu Jinyan, expressionless as she edits the script: Get back here!
She spends every day keeping the child alive, and somehow manages to get by. But that regent seems to have a problem...
Wait! He’s a villain too! A scheming, sinister big boss!
Lu Jinyan watches in horror as Ji Jinghan closes in on her: Don’t come any closer! I’ve seen the script! You’re planning a rebellion!
Ji Jinghan calmly corners her against the wall: Hmm? A rebellion? If I wanted to rebel, why would I exhaust myself every day for Your Majesty and the emperor?
Lu Jinyan mutters under her breath: Maybe you have some other scheme up your sleeve?
Ji Jinghan nods: I do. I’ve coveted the empress dowager for a long time. I just asked the emperor for her hand, and he agreed.
Good looking. Very good for old bookworms.
