Modern-day office worker Shen Xing is born into ancient times with a “Gossip System.” When her brother is left unconscious after an assassination attempt, she is forced to take his place at court, and everyone can hear her thoughts. She scans for secrets, cracks one strange case after another, and earns gossip points to save her brother. Along the way, she and the crown prince go from bickering adversaries to falling for each other. She face-slaps the chancellor and Prince Xian, along with other villains, and helps the emperor pacify the Northern Di. Rising from a seventh-rank official to crown princess, she also helps the eldest princess enter politics, breaking the tradition that women must stay out of government. With her gossip-gathering skills, she cleans up the court and pursues her dream of reaching for the stars and beyond.
