Lan Ran, a modern feminist who never wanted to marry or have children, transmigrates into the body of a young empress dowager who is expected to “mother” a foolish emperor. Every day, her cheap son’s mind-numbing antics drive her to the brink.
In despair, she notices the newly favored consort Shi Yan, whose face looks familiar. She is none other than the genius goddess Lan Ran admired in her modern life!
A math genius wasting her talent calculating the odds of being summoned? A woman with a photographic memory using it only to memorize Lessons for Women?
Lan Ran is beside herself with frustration. “Yanyan, wake up! Think bigger! Why be a consort when you can be emperor?”
With The Prince in one hand and a little notebook full of “proof that the emperor is an idiot” in the other, Lan Ran teams up with the scheming Grand Tutor Qin Ziwei to launch a hilarious crash course in becoming a female emperor.
Shi Yan trembles. “Your Majesty, I only wanted a new dress...”
Lan Ran slams the table. “A new dress? How about a dragon robe?!”
And so, a riotous power struggle unfolds in the chaotic court, masterminded by a “mad” empress dowager, egged on by a sharp-tongued grand tutor, and starring a genius consort forced into the role.
Watch as a timid consort is pushed into becoming the founding empress, and modern thinking turns the ancient court upside down.
