The Entire Court Hears Me Munch on Gossip

Lin Xiaoyue, a top student at the history department, wakes up as the arrogant prime minister’s daughter in a novel, doomed to a tragic end. Facing her breathtaking reflection, and the prince who is about to kill her with a single sword stroke, along with a long list of relatives marked for execution, she decisively binds herself to the [Gossip and Scum-Bashing System]. It supplies endless gossip and points her toward missions, giving her a chance to defy fate! But she soon realizes there’s something off about this gossip. She jokingly calls a general a “mama’s boy,” and the very next day an imperial decree sends him to the frontier. She casually hears that the Second Prince is secretly building a faction, and the entire clique is rounded up by an incorruptible censor the following day. The emperor, who had always regarded her as a stain on his reputation, begins treating her warmly. The stuffy ministers smile at her like sunflowers. Even the icy, aloof Crown Prince looks at her with an ever more inscrutable gaze. Clutching the System, Lin Xiaoyue trembles: [Orange! Did we unlock some hidden cheat? Why are the scumbags I want to take down falling on their own?!] She has no idea that from the moment she woke up, the entire power center of the imperial court could hear her and the System frantically gossiping in their minds. And the Crown Prince she most wants to avoid is looking at a secret report from his subordinate, which clearly records every single thing she has said about him in her mind. He taps the page with one finger, the corner of his mouth lifting. “I’d like to see just how many little secrets you have.”
