After I Transmigrated into a Book, I Won the Palace Struggle by Playing the Drama Queen

Modern-day office worker Lin Wanwan transmigrates into an old-school palace-intrigue novel as a spoiled female side character, and the moment she opens her eyes, she’s bound to the “Never Break Character System”: if she doesn’t act out, she dies, but overdoing it might get her killed too. Forced to play her role, she complains on her wedding day that the prince’s bed is hurting her back, causing total chaos.

When the cold-faced God of War, Prince Jing Xiao Jue, returns from battle, he finds his troublesome princess unexpectedly amusing. He’s seen plenty of women in the inner quarters plot with smiles on their faces, but this kind of loud, blunt troublemaking is a first.

So Lin Wanwan keeps stirring up trouble. Today, she finds the food awful and demands a new chef. Tomorrow, the flowers aren’t bright enough, so she orders them all uprooted. The day after, she openly complains that the prince’s face is so cold it ruins her appetite. Everyone expects him to grow sick of her, but instead he says, “If the princess doesn’t like it, then do as she says.”

When the side consorts and noblewomen join forces to frame her, Lin Wanwan puts her workplace backstabbing skills to use. With her “Troublemaker’s Guide to Turning the Tables,” she makes her enemies suffer the consequences of their own schemes. Xiao Jue gradually realizes that beneath his troublemaking princess’s unruly exterior lies a brilliant mind.

Later, the troublemaking princess becomes famous throughout the capital. The System chimes in: “Host has exceeded the requirements for ‘A Troublemaker’s Ultimate Victory.’ Bond terminated, ” Lin Wanwan is just about to cheer when someone pins her against a wall. “Have you stopped acting out, Princess? This prince is starting to miss it.”
