** [Synopsis]**
Geng Xinyue, an overachiever at an agricultural research institute, transmigrates into the Qing dynasty as an invisible nobody in Yongzheng's household. She promptly mutes her romance-obsessed System and achieves vegetable self-sufficiency in the prince's residence with greenhouse produce and spicy hot pot. Unexpectedly, she catches Fourth Master’s attention and even has Eighth Master climbing over the wall to see her. Amid the bloody struggle among the nine princes for the throne, she uses modern agricultural science to forge an astonishing path to becoming the emperor's teacher.
