[Transmigrate into a Book] [Mind Reading] [Immortal-Mortal Entanglements] [Palace Intrigue] [爽文]
An Jiu, disciple of an Immortal Venerable, transmigrated into a book and became a palace maid in a perilous position. The moment she opened her eyes, she became bound to a strange “mind-reading” phenomenon that let her hear the thoughts of Ling Xuan, the emperor of the mortal realm. Eighteen-year-old Ling Xuan seemed gentle and cheerful, but beneath the surface, his mind was as deep as an abyss. The balance of power at court, the Ministry of Works' shoddy repairs, the shady dealings of the Salt and Iron Bureau: he had every last detail figured into his plans.
An Jiu had only wanted to keep her head down and survive, but her heaven-defying ability to hear thoughts swept her into the whirlpool of palace intrigue. When the Imperial Kitchen sent the wrong pickles and the Ministry of Works tried to sound her out with a gift, she deftly resolved each situation and gradually earned the emperor's trust. Yet the Salt and Iron Bureau's memorial concealed a sinister aura, and the mysterious gray mist in the corner of the hall also seemed deeply strange. As an immortal's disciple, An Jiu sensed that courtly rivalries were not the only danger in the palace: undercurrents between immortals and demons were stirring as well.
Meanwhile, far away in the Underworld, a handsome and domineering King of Hell watched the disturbances in the mortal realm through a crystal mirror. Thus began a remarkable entanglement between the immortal, mortal, and netherworld realms. Watch as An Jiu uses her immortal arts and extraordinary mind-reading ability to gain a foothold in this treacherous palace, join hands with the emperor to break through the deadlock, and uncover the great secret of the three realms hidden beneath layer upon layer of mist.
