Transmigrated into the body of a weak-willed concubine who was scared to death as soon as she entered the palace, Su Mo'er says, “Whatever. I’ll just get plenty of sleep!”
Palace intrigue? Too tiring! Competing for favor? Not a chance! Her only goals in life are sleeping in, sampling everything the imperial kitchens have to offer, and being left alone!
But the scheming emperor finds himself more and more captivated by her. This concubine never plays by the rules, and she’s so adorably innocent. I’ll spoil her!
Her general brother charges straight into the palace to protect her: “Lay a finger on my sister and I’ll cut you down!”
Her bodyguard Qiukui has her back: “Just eat and sleep, Master. I’ll deal with the bad guys!”
Concubine Li poisons someone? Confined to her quarters! Concubine Rong schemes against her? Demoted! Rebellious ministers stir up trouble? Their entire families are executed!
She lies flat in complete bewilderment while the emperor sweeps away every storm in her path, spoiling her from a low-ranking concubine all the way to empress. She alone enjoys his favor, and no one dares cross her.
Su Mo'er rubs her round belly. “Your Majesty, can I have osmanthus cakes when the ceremony is over?”
Xuan Che chuckles softly. “My empress, you can eat whatever you like and sleep as long as you want.”
