A Feast in the Moonlight, High Above the Heavens

[Harem intrigue + alternate history + System + no romance] The heroine and supporting women find salvation in one another

During the Xiping era, imperial power is waning and celestial omens are changing.

Evil spirits wreak havoc. Several Immortal Lords serving the Moon-Gathering Goddess are defeated and gravely wounded in battle. Their immortal essences fall to the mortal realm, where they become concubines in the harem of the Liang Kingdom.

Cen Qingyan has only just been named Worthy Consort. She hasn’t even had time to get used to her new title when a little girl from her dreams starts pestering her.

The girl claims she’s... the chosen one?

And unless Cen Qingyan finds all six Immortal Lords and restores them to their proper places, she won’t have long to live either?

But how can she sincerely get along with the consorts she’s always been at odds with...

At the spring banquet, birds sing and butterflies dance in the imperial garden, but none of it can compare to Cen Qingyan basking in the bliss of being surrounded by beautiful women, one on each arm.

The Xuan Room, usually the liveliest hall in the palace, is deserted. The emperor looks up from the memorials piled high before him. “Where’s Pure Consort?”

A palace attendant replies, “At the Qingyun Palace.”

“I see. And the Noble Consort?”

“She’s there too.”

“...Then summon Lady Shu.”

“Your Majesty, Lady Shu just heard that the Noble Consort went to Qingyun Palace. She’s rushing over there right now!”

“Why does my head feel a little cold?”

The eunuch replies, “Nothing at all, Your Majesty. Just a breeze rustling the grass.”

She crushes the State of Zhe, tramples the rebels, purges the corrupt customs of Great Liang, and blazes a path for women to hold office.

People everywhere say that Worthy Consort Cen is a goddess sent from heaven, charged with saving Liang.

One day, the emperor reads the lavish praise of Worthy Consort Cen in a memorial and falls into thought. “Tell me, should I let the Worthy Consort take the throne for a while?”
