Overworked office drone Lin Xiao died suddenly after working late. When she opened her eyes, she had become Su Qingqing, the most good-for-nothing princess in the Great Jing Dynasty.
The original owner was ignorant and spoiled, but Lin Xiao was horrified to discover that her entire family would be wiped out by a shadowy enemy in six months!
To survive, she had no choice but to switch into “workplace survival mode”:
Act sweet and obedient, play dumb, and more...
On the surface, she was a harmless, lazy princess. Behind the scenes, she was frantically gathering evidence and winning people over.
But someone wouldn’t let her live in peace.
Xiao Che, heir to the Marquis of Zhenbei, whom she had once teased in public, was icy and relentless, closing in on her step by step.
His gaze seemed able to see through every disguise she wore.
Her greatest enemy was her imperial uncle, Prince Jing’an, who seemed gentle and refined but was ambitious to the core.
A poisoned-tea crisis at a flower-viewing banquet tore open the curtain on a game of political intrigue.
So she stopped hiding.
She would overturn not only the court, but the rules of the entire age.
“I don’t want to die, so I’m afraid I’ll have to ask you all to get out of my way.”
But she never expected the cold-faced heir to whisper in her ear:
“Your Highness, your acting... is pretty awful.”
She smiled back at him.
“Then, my lord, would you like to see me flip the table?”
