The Maid Picks the Young Lord, Choosing Gold Over Abs

Tian Shulan starts out cosplaying as a low-ranking maid, and her brain immediately crashes. The prince and his son are shameless, devious schemers, always pulling flashy moves, digging traps, hiding in ambush, and squeezing every last drop out of people. The poor heroine is so skinny she’s little more than skin and bones, yet she still has to toil “9 to 9, seven days a week” just to survive! Don’t panic! First save up money and provisions, then reinforce the walls. She’ll show you what it means to be a “wolf in sheep’s clothing.” Want to make money? With marketing savvy, she’ll acquire thousands of acres of fertile land and countless grand mansions! Want power? Armed with the art of scheming, she could even become Empress Wu Zetian if she wanted! As for learning? She knows three hundred Tang poems, the Analects, and the Four Books and Five Classics by heart, enough to crush the Confucian scholars like they’re little kids! A special feature: Crown Prince, Heir, Great General, stop fighting! Didn’t you all agree to be brothers with Tian Shulan? The Great General: I’ve just realized I want to have a child with her to strengthen our brotherly bond. The Heir: I’ve fallen lovesick. The only way I can stay alive is by marrying her. The Crown Prince: You two, get lost! Kneel before the Crown Princess at once.
