Please, no mindless sweet romance based solely on the heroine’s looks. I want a story with no golden finger, or one that isn’t too overpowered. The protagonist should start as a lowly palace maid or eunuch and work their way up, constantly learning new skills, like Wei Yanwan: embroidery, tea-making, sewing clothes, and so on.

❤️This book perfectly meets the requirements of the title. The heroine gets a life simulator system, and the main task is to become a noble concubine at the age of thirty. Although each simulation failed to complete the task, each time a skill was obtained or improved. I really laughed to death when I saw the scene in the simulation where she practiced calligraphy until her death and had a big fight with the emperor.

This one is super beautiful. The female protagonist is a palace maid. She grew up with the emperor and saved the male protagonist. The male protagonist dotes on the female protagonist, but it is not a doting relationship between men and women. Their relationship is very similar to that between siblings. The female protagonist is a famous "mute palace maid" in the palace.

[Working on a manuscript][Working on a manuscript][Working on a manuscript] I really enjoyed reading the first book and the heroine especially liked the gossip.

The heroine of this novel is not a palace maid, but the daughter of a minor official. She originally wanted to follow the times and become the mistress of a house, but in the end she had to enter the palace. Fortunately, she was admitted as a female official, and she started her upward path from then on. The heroine is also relatively hard-working, relies on her intelligence, chooses the right backer, gets promoted and gets a raise. I feel like the subject of the question will also like her😊
