Great Song: A Three-Year-Old Cutie Drives the Entire Court Insane

[Song Dynasty + adored by all + adorable child + Encyclopedia System + two-faced + feel-good wish fulfillment + not a self-sacrificing heroine]

One moment, history PhD Shen Xinxin is asleep; the next, she’s reborn as a three-and-a-half-year-old orphan in the Northern Song during the reign of Emperor Renzong.

From the start, she’s abandoned in a ruined temple in a desolate village outside Bianjing, with hungry wolves and torrential rain around her. It’s a truly disastrous start!

While other children cry for their mothers, she calmly lights a fire to roast sweet potatoes. While others fear the snow will block the roads, she has already unlocked an ancient recipe through her System and brewed a warming soup.

By a stroke of fate, she gets run over by the carriage of Lord Shen, a minister of the court. From then on, this tiny, three-foot-tall little girl, who speaks in a babyish voice and bounces around as she walks, becomes the apple of the eye of the entire Shen household, and even the whole city of Bianjing.

An epidemic breaks out in the household? Xinxin points her little hand, and an ancient remedy cures it at once!

The food from the kitchen tastes terrible? Xinxin toddles in and serves up a feast that would put even the imperial chefs to shame!

Someone is scheming at court? Xinxin recites a passage from the history books in her sweet little voice, delivering a perfect face-slapping retort!

Every day, one stern-faced minister boasts to his colleagues: “My Xinxin memorized three more poems today. She’s so soft and sweet, and absolutely adorable.”

The assembled officials: “...”

Are you sure the little devil who got a powerful minister stripped of his official cap and left the Western Xia envoys speechless is the same person you’re talking about?

Little by little, everyone realizes that the tiny girl they cherish so much they’re afraid she’ll melt is apparently the most terrifying person in all of the Great Song!
