After waking up, Jiang Yuewei finds herself transmigrated into an old-fashioned tragic romance novel as Yue Nu, a bed-climbing maidservant about to be executed. Facing the cold and cruel Regent Lu Jin, she has no strength to fight back. The only thing that might save her is the inexplicably bound Praise System in her mind.
[Objective: Praise the Regent! The more sincere your praise, the greater your reward!]
To stay alive, Jiang Yuewei racks her brains:
“Your Highness’s calligraphy in the study is bold and vigorous, revealing the breadth of your vision!”
“The orchids in your courtyard are thriving. They must have been blessed by your good fortune!”
And even when he is alone late at night, she carefully asks, “Your Highness... would you like some candy? Something sweet can ease your worries.”
She thinks she is merely doing whatever she can to survive. Little does she know that her seemingly obsequious praise keeps striking precisely at the defenses around Lu Jin’s icy heart, and the candy she offers quietly melts the ice within him.
From being granted permission to serve close at hand, to receiving a military strategy manual as a test; from being sheltered beneath his umbrella in the rain, to his public declaration at a palace banquet, “She is mine”; and finally, he offers her the empire as her betrothal gift and promises her a phoenix coronet, bridal robes, and the position of principal consort.
This is a tale of survival that begins with praise and culminates in a profound love between equals. From a lowly maidservant to the Regent’s consort, she wields sincerity as a blade and intelligence as a shield, winning one man’s heart and rising to rule the realm with grace.
