I Entered the Palace as a Noble Consort, and the Rough Emperor Wants Me to Keep Him

The new emperor, a rough-and-tumble general who has only just conquered the realm, finds the treasury so empty it could starve a rat. To win over the great families of Jiangnan, he summons Wen Yunxiu, the wealthiest woman in Jiangnan and the legitimate daughter of a prominent clan, to the palace.

On the day the imperial decree arrives, Wen Yunxiu is not only made a first-rank Imperial Noble Consort from the outset, she also enters the palace in a grand procession with five hundred carts of gold, silver, and jewels, along with one hundred thousand shi of grain!

The rough women in the harem who helped him conquer the realm are green with envy, and secretly plot to put this delicate young heiress in her place.

But on the very first day of paying her respects, Wen Yunxiu casually waves a hand. “I’m new here, so I’ll give each of you a basin of gold nuggets!”

The concubines: Who could resist that? I’m calling her big sister first!

That night, the burly, coarse emperor, the sort of man who could stop children crying just by showing his face, rubs his hands together and sneaks into her palace. “Xiuxiu, there’s heavy snow in the north, and the border troops are still short two million taels in supplies. How do you think I did serving you tonight?”
