Your Majesty, Care for a Murder Mystery?

[Two formidable leads as emperor and empress + transmigration showdown + palace intrigue like a murder mystery game + love and rivalry + subverting expectations] On my first day as empress, I discover the whole palace is full of transmigrators. The emperor calls out to me, “When the sine changes, the cosine stays the same.” Hao Duanduan transmigrates as the daughter of a disgraced minister, expecting to fight palace intrigues until she dies. But on her first day, she hears someone tapping Morse code from the cell next door: “Did you transmigrate here?” Before she can get excited, the person is beheaded. Just before dying, they mouth the words: Watch out for the emperor. Three years later, she rises to become empress. On their wedding night, the emperor lifts her veil and whispers, “When the sine changes, the cosine stays the same.” Her eyes widen in shock. “Check the quadrant by the signs!” He sneers. “Don’t get too excited. In this round, only one of us can survive.” Later, they discover that the Noble Consort is a short-video influencer, the Virtuous Consort is a graduate student in medicine, and the imperial kitchen chef is a food blogger… There are more than twenty transmigrators in the entire imperial harem, all trying to outdo one another in acting every day. Shen Qingli looks at all the “fellow countrymen” in the palace and says to the emperor: “Your Majesty, let’s team up. We’ll take them all out first, then we can settle things between us.”
