Reborn in Emperor Wu of Han's Reign: The Crown Princess's Path to Becoming Empress

Lin Yi, a graduate student in modern history, is unexpectedly reborn as Wei Wan, a favored consort in the Eastern Palace of Liu Che, Emperor Wu of Han. She has just lost her memory after an "accidental" fall, leaving her an insignificant nobody at the bottom of the Eastern Palace food chain.

Faced with Liu Ji's relentless harassment, Empress Dowager Dou's scrutiny and suppression, and the Prince of Liang's conspiracy to seize the throne, she draws on her modern knowledge to survive in the cracks: she organizes her dowry with categorized bookkeeping, improves Empress Dowager Dou's opinion of her with nourishing porridge, and uses her gardening skills to create a garden of her own. Through one crisis after another, she also grows closer to Crown Prince Liu Che, who seems cold but is gentle underneath.

From "keeping her head down to avoid trouble" to "fighting side by side," she must not only face the overt and covert schemes of the imperial harem, but also help Liu Che weather political turmoil. As a deadly poison from the Western Regions, a coup, and unrest among the Xiongnu arise one after another, can this ancient consort with a modern soul find her footing amid the power struggles at the start of Emperor Wu's reign and ultimately rise from a favored consort to the empress standing at Liu Che's side? A journey of growth blending the weight of history with sweet, lighthearted daily life begins here.
