In the 12th year of Yongchang, the fifth princess Yu Zhaoyue woke up from her coffin.
In her previous life, she was a project manager who died of overwork; in this life, she is the most "waste" princess of the Fengxiang Dynasty.
A soul who just wants to "lay down and survive" is forced into the cruelest power game.
She doesn't understand poetry and poetry, but she is good at cost accounting and process optimization.
She is not good at political manipulation, but is good at system design and people's engineering.
She used the "No. 1 Building in the World" to weave an intelligence network, used the "New Performance Appraisal Method" to tear down the barriers of aristocratic families, and used the "Women's Academy" to ignite sparks.
Facing the iron-fisted Mother Queen, the ambitious Fourth Sister, and the eyeing Dragon Palace,
Zhaoyue chose a road no one has traveled before:
Don't fight for the throne, just change the rules; don't seize power, just build the system.
"What you are fighting for is that chair," she stood on the Golden Palace, running her fingers across the territory map. "What I am fighting for is that the person sitting on this chair must also act according to my rules."
This is a dimensionality reduction attack by modern thinking on the ancient order.
It is also an ultimate reflection on the "nature of power":
The best power is not to make people kneel down but to stand up straight; the best system is not to restrain people but to liberate them.
