[Female Lead, System, Workplace Overhaul, Pure Wish Fulfillment, Making Money]
[A clear-headed career woman vs. an emperor and crown prince ruled by the abacus]
Shen Jingqiu transmigrates and finds herself in the Cold Palace, about to be sentenced to death.
Cry? Beg for mercy? Fight in the harem?
No! As an HR director at a Fortune 500 company, her professional instincts kick in!
As the emperor arrives to read the imperial decree, she whips out a "Harem Annual Waste Analysis Report".
“Your Majesty, your consorts faked illness 3,600 times this year, wasting 50,000 taels of medicinal herbs. That would be enough to buy two thousand warhorses for the northern cavalry!”
The emperor: ??? (He lowers his sword. Perhaps they can still talk.)
And so, the Great Jing Dynasty gets a makeover.
The Noble Consort fights for favor? Shen Jingqiu: “You failed this month’s KPI. Your performance bonus is docked, and you’re being demoted!”
The Imperial Household Department embezzles funds? Shen Jingqiu: “Send in the audit team! Steal even one tael of silver, and three generations of your family will be barred from the civil service exams!”
A prince rebels? Shen Jingqiu: “Freeze his funding and cut off his supply lines. How can he raise an army without money?”
From a discarded consort in the Cold Palace to Great Jing’s most powerful female official.
Shen Jingqiu wields the "Comprehensive Code of Official Evaluation" and tramples corrupt officials underfoot.
Crown Prince Xiao Jingchen gazes at her lovingly. “Jingqiu, half this realm is yours. Be my empress.”
Shen Jingqiu works her abacus without looking up. “Don’t make empty promises. Pay me for last month’s overtime first. Even brothers keep their accounts straight!”
Warning: The female lead has no heart, only a salary!
