[Dual Transmigration] [Infrastructure-Building Maniacs] [Workplace Power Struggles] [Ensemble Cast] [Harem Gets Down to Business]
A great fire sends modern tycoon Xiao Jingyu and his all-capable chief secretary transmigrating together to the Great Yu dynasty, where they become the critically ill Emperor Xiao Jingyu and his wife of many years, Empress Shen. The Great Yu dynasty is barely a century old, yet already in decline. The treasury is empty, land consolidation is rampant, and the Empress Dowager’s faction is poised to make a move. Faced with this mess, Xiao Jingyu remains completely unruffled. “So it’s just a company on the verge of bankruptcy? Then we’ll restructure it!” And with that, the court’s atmosphere changes overnight: KPIs are handed out at court, officials must bring paper and pens to meetings, the Ministry of Revenue opens a central bank, and the Six Ministries cut staff and streamline operations, while the champions of the military examinations step up!
Meanwhile, Secretary Shen Qing, now empress, is just as busy, turning the harem into a corporate structure with finance, public relations, and operations departments. The Noble Consort handles marketing, talented women from every corner create promotional materials, and the consorts work their hearts out for their careers. They don’t even have time for palace intrigue! Lin Mo, a female court diarist, writes in her private notes: “The emperor and empress have gone mad, but Great Yu has come back to life.”
