[Unconventional palace intrigue + not both virgins + devoted love later on]
Shi Qing was a frail college student from the post-2000 generation, about to graduate. She choked on a drink in her dorm, and then… well, there was no then. She left behind the beautiful new Huaxia, with its computers, Wi-Fi, and air conditioning, and was born into this alternate dynasty as Qi Shiqing. Fortunately, Qi Shiqing came from a powerful family, so she got to enjoy the life she had always envied: having everything handed to her, from clothes to food.
In the end, a palace selection put an end to Qi Shiqing’s wonderful life as a “full-time daughter.” Once she entered the palace as a consort, Qi Shiqing had no intention of competing with a bunch of women for a man’s favor. She only wanted to live her own life in peace. But if anyone foolishly picked a fight with her, she wouldn’t let herself be pushed around. Watch as this post-2000s-generation consort sets the imperial harem straight.
Qin Shuoyao was also baffled. This woman was supposed to be nothing more than a lucky charm he had brought into the harem, a hostage, in fact. She was even unwilling to share his bed. So why did he keep wanting to visit her palace? Could it be that he was the one who’d ended up wrapped around her finger?
