Transmigrated as a Palace Maid, My Laid-Back Inner Voice Astonishes the Emperor

The heroine, Jiang Li, accidentally transmigrates to an ancient imperial palace and becomes a low-ranking palace maid. Knowing how brutal palace infighting can be, she only wants to stay out of trouble, be a “couch potato,” and coast through life. However, the newly enthroned Emperor Xiao Xuanjing may seem cold and calculating, but he has a secret ability: he can hear the true thoughts of certain people. When he accidentally hears Jiang Li’s inner monologue, which wildly complains about the emperor and fantasizes about retiring to farm while she acts obedient and sweet on the surface, a cat-and-mouse game begins between the “couch-potato” beauty and the mind-reading emperor. Deeply captivated by Jiang Li’s candid, thoroughly modern inner thoughts, Xiao Xuanjing goes from surprise and fury to possessive obsession. He decides to keep this little palace maid who says one thing and thinks another by his side, using his mind-reading ability to shield her from every open attack and hidden threat, and creating a harem that belongs to her alone.
