After becoming Sizi, Li Shimin’s most beloved little princess, Shen Yao just wants to eat pastries, sleep, and cuddle cats.
Bound to a lazy-fish System that wants her to make the Tang Dynasty rich and strong, she replies, “I want to sleep.” Her imperial father carries her to court as a lucky mascot. She casually mutters, “Let the fields yield a little more,” and Fang Xuanling spends the night drafting a reform plan. She yawns and says, “I’m so tired,” and Wei Zheng begs her not to overexert herself. Consort Yang goes to great lengths to harm her, but Shen Yao eats too much that day and misses the banquet, inadvertently exposing Consort Yang instead.
While the court argues itself hoarse, she curls up on the dragon throne and sleeps soundly. When she wakes, everyone is looking at her with admiration.
Wasn’t she supposed to slack off and lie flat?
She never wanted to play politics. She was just sleepy.
