Phoenix Palace: After I Transmigrated, I Won the Favor of the Six Palaces by Lying Flat
Shen Qingci, a twenty-first-century office drone caught in the rat race, dies suddenly from working overtime. When she opens her eyes, she has transmigrated into Shen Weiwan, the disgraced daughter of a condemned official in the Great Yao Dynasty, who has just been banished to the cold palace. Her family has fallen, she has no imperial favor, and after catching the favored Consort Hua making things difficult for her, she is promptly cast aside by the emperor and sent to the cold palace. Her start is nothing short of hell mode.
The original owner was delicate and timid, and died with a heart full of resentment. In her place is Shen Qingci, with her laid-back soul. After a lifetime spent overworking, she swears that in this life she will neither compete nor fight for favor. All she wants is to lie flat in the cold palace, eat her fill, and wait for death.
But who could have guessed that her lazy, laid-back attitude in the cold palace would catch the emperor Xiao Jingyuan’s eye?
Accustomed to palace women flattering him, scheming, and fighting for his favor, he finds himself drawn to this cold and aloof fallen consort, who neither weeps nor complains, neither kneels nor fawns, and can’t even be bothered to get up when the emperor himself comes to see her.
An imperial edict restores the fallen consort to her position and brings her back from the cold palace, instantly stirring up a storm in the inner palace.
Consort Hua, beautiful, arrogant, cruel, and ruthless, sees her as her mortal enemy and repeatedly tries to kill her. Virtuous Consort, gentle and perceptive yet hiding her true nature, watches coldly from the sidelines but secretly forms an alliance with her, becoming the most unexpected support Shen Qingci finds deep within the palace.
Faced with poisonings, false accusations, and attacks from every direction, Shen Qingci can’t be bothered to scheme. With nothing but “If you don’t provoke me, I won’t provoke you,” she tears apart every trap and serves up face-slapping time and again, thrilling the entire harem.
She doesn’t fight for the empress’s throne, plot for power, or seek imperial favor. She only wants to live in peace, yet the emperor cherishes her above all others and dotes on her alone. Step by step, she rises from fallen consort in the cold palace to the most favored woman in the imperial harem, with power over the capital.
This is so delicious, the emperor is so sweet
