The System Wants You to Compete, but You’re Slacking Off and Giving Up?

Qian Duoduo, a double PhD from Imperial University, is transported into the Great Yu Dynasty as its villainous Noble Consort, Qian Baozhu, only to be framed by the local consorts and die after drinking poisoned wine. When she opens her eyes again, she’s been reborn in Great Yu, but everything has changed: the emperor is not the same emperor, the timeline is in disarray, and she has fallen from the clouds to become Qian Huanxi, the lowest-ranking maid in the laundry bureau! After wearing herself out fighting in her previous life, all she wants this time is to lie flat. Whoever wants to fight over the harem can go ahead. Just as she’s preparing to accept her fate and take it easy, she’s forcibly bound to the [Cutthroat Competition Livestream System]. “Host, become the winner of the harem struggle and the star of the livestream. The peak awaits!” the System declares grandly. Qian Huanxi just scratches her ear and treats the System’s prompts as bedtime music. While others hone their skills to win the emperor’s favor, she uses memories from her previous life to slack off with precision. While others scheme desperately to spend one night in the emperor’s bed, she yawns and pushes him off the dragon bed. “Your Majesty, Beauty Wang next door is waiting for you. Don’t keep me from sleeping.” The System breaks down: [Host, please compete harder! Complete the ‘Dance Before the Emperor’ mission to earn peerless dancing skills!] Qian Huanxi turns around and reports it! Yet her peculiar style somehow catches the attention of the straight-laced emperor, who only wants to reform the court and finds the harem noisy? Even more astounding to the consorts who scheme tirelessly: while they fight each other to the death, how has that laid-back little maid become… invincible?!
