Nan Chuyi: Notes on the Machiavellian Strategy of the Sinful Lady

Lin Wei, a modern "history + psychology" double major graduate, traveled through time and became Su Jin, the daughter of a criminal official in Southern Chu (a fictional era). Su's father was falsely accused of treason for impeaching a powerful official. When the family was in exile, Su Jin was captured and taken into the palace to become the lowest-ranking "sasa-sweeping maid". In order to save her exiled family, Su Jin needs to gain a foothold in the deep palace/court. In the early stage, she was passively involved in the dispute between the queen (who supported the seventh prince) and the concubine (who supported the third prince). Later, she actively participated in the "seven princes' seizure of the legitimate son". In the end, she overturned the case for her father and assisted Mingjun in stabilizing Nanchu.
