The Wicked Supporting Lady Is Fighting for Her Life Every Day

Jiang Yan is the illegitimate second daughter of the Minister of Rites. Her mother taught her to wield her feminine charms.

In less than six months after entering the palace, she uses her talents to become Emperor Qin Yu of Great Yu’s most favored consort, living in silk and luxury and enjoying boundless glory.

After catching a fever from getting drenched in the rain, she has a bizarre dream. She learns that she is inside a palace-intrigue story, and that she is not only a supporting character, but the most vicious villainess in the book, destined for the cruelest ending.

Spoiled by the emperor’s favor, she abuses the other consorts and constantly targets the heroine chosen by fate, Li Shiyu. In the end, the emperor turns against her, she is banished to the Cold Palace, and she takes her own life with a strip of white silk.

Jiang Yan dismisses it as a ridiculous dream. That is, until Li Shiyu really does become Noble Lady Li. Everything from the story begins coming true, one event after another!

Remembering her miserable end in the Cold Palace, Jiang Yan is terrified out of her wits.

She wants no part of vying for favor, fighting for love, or basking in glory!

All she wants is to stay alive, keep her distance from the heroine, avoid every calamity, and quietly make it to the end.

From then on, the people in the harem notice something astonishing:

The once arrogant and brazen Noble Consort Jiang suddenly becomes gentle and low-key. She neither competes nor fights for favor, and she avoids the newly favored Consort Li Shiyu at every turn, refusing to get involved with her at all.

When someone in the harem frames Li Shiyu, Jiang Yan flees faster than anyone else, making sure not to get involved in the slightest.

But the harem is never at peace, and danger lurks at every turn amid blades and shadows.
