[No romance + Empresses in the Palace spin-off + palace maid + System rebellion + infrastructure building]
Help! I've transmigrated into Empresses in the Palace as the governess assigned to Xia Dongchun, and the moment I open my eyes, I catch her making a scene and talking back in front of everyone!
The original host fainted, and as soon as I wake up, I see Xia Dongchun's mother forcing her to apologize. Good thing I know the plot!
I was planning to keep my head down and stay alive, but then the System suddenly flashes a warning across the screen. One sentence sends me straight to the brink!
To save my own skin, I grit my teeth and cling to the Empress Dowager, secretly launching a grand plan to stir things up!
With the emperor: I keep poisoning the Empress Dowager's ear against him until mother and son turn against each other!
With the empress: I echo her wishes and whisper in her ear, urging her to push Hongshi onto the throne at all costs!
With Consort Hua: I dig up the secrets of Yikun Palace and turn her into the sharpest blade for slaying the dragon!
With Zhen Huan: You're a female Zhuge Liang. Don't let yourself be trapped in the rear palace. Join me and take down the emperor!
I lay my plans one step at a time. Big Orange is crushed by Zhen Huan and Consort Hua working together, and the useless Hongshi ascends the throne!
And what's worse, Jungharia is already sharpening its knives, eager to invade!
I sneer: Tanchun was right. A centipede may die, but it never falls apart. The Great Qing's fate depends on letting them wear each other down in their own infighting!
Nobody knows that I have both the plot and the System's faction bonuses on my side. I endure humiliation and play the victim early on, then leave the palace to build infrastructure later. (The author is the only one who thinks the protagonist's meek act is infuriating.)
Mostly, I just want to see what kind of ending the author can give this Empresses in the Palace spin-off.
