[Transmigration + Ming palace + women supporting women + unmarried and career-focused]
I transmigrate into the body of a five-year-old palace maid during Zhu Qiyu’s reign. The first thing I do is figure out how to transfer to Shou’an Palace and lie low while growing up beside the deposed Crown Prince, Zhu Jianshen.
Why?
Because I know that in history he will be imprisoned, bullied, and psychologically scarred, before dying young.
I also know that his one true love, Wan Zhen’er, will be vilified as a “wicked imperial consort,” left childless and unhappy.
In this life, I’ll use my modern knowledge to save them.
I’ll improve Zhu Jianshen’s health with medicinal cuisine, help him avoid palace intrigue and secret attacks with basic hygiene, and use educational psychology to help him grow into a truly wise ruler.
As for Wan Zhen’er?
I’ll help her have a child of her own and free her from the infamy history saddled her with, so she can become a woman who is truly respected.
And me?
No marriage, no romance, no relying on men.
I’ll be a beacon for the women of the Ming Dynasty, using knowledge and wisdom to change an era.
