[Historical fantasy] + [Palace and household intrigue] + [System] + [Disguised as a man] + [Lie flat]
Cool and aloof heroine x sunshine puppy-like hero in private
As the product of a business marriage, Xie Yi was bound to a System and born into this world as a princess destined to be branded an “ill omen.” But because her parents favored her, they disguised her as the “Eldest Prince.”
The “Eternal Emperor” System realized it had bound itself to the wrong person. Unable to change its Host, it changed into the “Assist the Eternal Emperor” System instead.
It sounded like another life of hard labor. But the System had agreed to a lot of her conditions, and the parents it found for her were great, so Xie Yi gave in. It was just work, and it had a time limit. Fine, she’d do it!
From now on, she was Xie “Temp Worker on a Deadline” Yi.
Xie Yi rolled up her sleeves and got to work, sending Shen Yixuan people, money, and intelligence.
Hurry up and rebel! Hurry up and become the Eternal Emperor! Hurry up and let me lie flat.
Shen Yixuan: What is Brother Yi doing? Does he want to seize the throne and need troops? Is he asking me to help?
“Guards! Bring the troops and follow me to attack Xiangcheng/Wucheng/Lucheng!”
Xie Yi: “Now that you’ve taken them all, hurry up and proclaim yourself emperor. Do your job properly from now on. I’m out of here!”
“Xie Ming, the realm is yours. I’m going to find your sister! I promised to stick by her, from childhood to old age.”
Xie Ming: So I was the real clown all along. You’re dumping the thankless job on me!!!
System: Does this count as completing my mission...
