After We Transmigrated into a Book, My Best Friend and I Ruled the Court

[He] [Political intrigue and mystery-solving]

(The story focuses mainly on careers, with romance as a secondary thread. I think the pacing is fast for a political intrigue novel, but it still takes a little patience to get into.)

The day my best friend and I transmigrated into the bodies of cannon-fodder twin sisters with the same names as our own, we clung to each other and cried.

The original owners had been betrothed to a tyrannical prince and a sinister chief councilor. According to the plot, they were both doomed to die within three days.

My best friend slammed down her abacus. “I’ll use modern accounting to work the Ministry of Revenue to death!”

I smacked the court gavel. “I’ll use the Criminal Law Amendment to sentence every last one of you to overtime!”

The tyrannical prince: “Princess, could I... have another look at the account books?”

The sinister chief councilor: “My lady, the Ministry of Justice... is short a minister. Would you consider it?”

Later, we held power over the court, but all we wanted was to quit.

“Please, just let the two of us go back to the modern world and open a bubble tea shop!”
