Help! Other women rely on schemes to survive palace intrigue, but she chats with the imperial cat?
Hu Yueyue wakes up as a low-ranking palace maid with the rare ability to understand animals. The catch is that every time she uses it, she loses her sense of taste!
To her surprise, the gloomy emperor takes an interest in her. “How does a little maid from the laundry bureau know I coughed three times last night?”
From the lowest-ranking maid to the emperor’s sole favorite, she has the women of the Six Palaces watching red-eyed as she munches on pork knuckles and counts her gold ingots.
Poisoned wine at her lips?
Hu Yueyue sneers. “I laid a perfect trap with the birds long ago!”
When the tyrant discovers that his beloved consort is using kitchen cockroaches to spy on the entire palace...
Will he lock her in a golden cage, or hand her the imperial phoenix seal?
