Across the Qing Harem: Concubine Gou

[Qing Dynasty Harem Crossover] [Powerhouse] [No Fixed CP]

Wen Ruan transmigrates as a palace maiden in the Qing court and binds herself to a [Merit System].

A socially anxious homebody, all she wants is to lie flat and survive. Instead, she's forced to play the part of a delicate, fragile beauty.

Until she realizes that the children she gave birth to seem a little... unusual.

Her four-year-old eldest son discusses politics: "Mother, this is how the Reign of Zhenguan should be governed."

Her five-year-old second son draws a map of the seas: "Mother, I wish to follow in Yongle's footsteps and sail to the Western Ocean."

Her six-year-old daughter trains female soldiers: "If Princess Pingyang Zhaogong could do it, then so can I!"

During the Nine Dragons' struggle for the throne, her children turn it into a battle among the gods.

In the harem battles of Empresses in the Palace, her children watch with amusement as a bunch of amateurs squabble.

In the world of Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace, her children... start an Industrial Revolution?

Kangxi gradually begins to doubt his own eyes:

"My beloved consort is so delicate she can't even look after herself. So why is her son improving the crops while her daughter is building cannons?"

The palace concubines weep that the Noble Consort is using sorcery. Wen Ruan clutches a handkerchief in wounded innocence: [Unjustly accused! I'm just a tool who pulls books out for them.]

Later, the Qing Dynasty's whole style changes beyond recognition:

Navy ships sail for Europe, smallpox vaccination spreads throughout the land, and girls' schools blossom everywhere.

Wen Ruan reclines on the chaise longue, munching on melon seeds:

"Kids, take it slow. Don't shock your Imperial Father too much."

Behind her, her eldest son, the reincarnation of Qin Shi Huang, presents a map of the world:

"Mother, shall we unify the written language and standardize the tracks next?"
