[Mistakenly Bound to a System] [Palace Intrigue] [Spirit-Spring Farming] [A Battle of Wits and Hearts]
Shen Yushu struggled to survive for five years in the apocalypse, but in the end, she still died.
When she opened her eyes again, she had transmigrated into the timid legitimate daughter of a marquis's household.
Her mother was weak, her father cold-hearted, her betrothed loved someone else, and her half-sister was always looking for a chance to climb over her.
Shen Yushu: What a deal!
No zombies to kill, no supplies to fight over. She had a bed to sleep in, hot meals every day, and maids to wait on her.
How was this household struggle? It was clearly a chance to enjoy the good life!
As long as it didn't get in the way of eating and sleeping, Shen Yushu couldn't be bothered with any of it.
Even the System in her head, which nagged her every day to complete missions, might as well have been air.
Shen Yushu's greatest wish in this life was to be a pampered, well-fed, wealthy slacker until old age.
Until an imperial edict sent her into the palace.
-
Xiao Chenyuan was born to the highest ranks of nobility.
To him, the women of his harem were merely tools for balancing the court. Whether he favored them or not depended entirely on a single thought.
That was until a so-called Palace Intrigue System came to him. For a reward, he made a woman a consort.
At first, he thought Shen Yushu was lazy and spoiled, with no sense of propriety. He kept her around only because of the System.
Later, he learned that even an emperor could long for something he could never have.
This darling little girl, whom he had pampered in the palm of his hand, wanted gold and jewels, fine clothes and good food, and all the glory and riches in the world.
The one thing she didn't want was his love.

(Not a mutually exclusive relationship; the female lead is the emperor's sole favorite in the palace.)
