[When a modern sober girl meets the fate of the "disaster" princess, the way to break the situation in the palace is more exciting than having a banquet with Buddha and jumping over the wall! She is a frustrated woman who was fired and broke up in the workplace. She once dressed up as Princess Heyao, the "disaster to defeat her mother", and was almost assaulted on her first night on the boat. There were strange meteorites and blood-clothed obsessions hidden in the palace; she used the overnight cold meal to make "gold-wrapped" fried rice to shatter the corruption in the imperial dining room. Tan secretly fell in love with the mysterious prince - she thought it was the warm light of troubled times, but it turned out to be the sugar coating of calculations; she designed ice-cracked earrings that flowed like stars, tearing apart the shackles of purdah with "useless beauty", but she was shrouded in poisonous mist at the birthday banquet. When the cockatiels flapped their wings, the silver needles in the Buddha jumping over the wall were glowing with cold light... ——Do you think this is a cliché time-travel sweet pet? No, this is a "peach blossom against the times" that uses cooking skills, ingenuity, tactics and sincerity to rewrite destiny in the palace. Read how she turned the word "disaster" into her own light.

1. The heroine is reborn and changes the situation between herself and her mother-in-law. It was good when I first started reading it. 2. The second book tells the story of a villain's family fighting for the imperial power. The royal family in the later period is a bit squishy, ​​just like the emperor in the late Shaohua chaos. 3. The third book is really good. The heroine is still short-sighted when she is reborn. The heroine infers the heroine's identity step by step and kills her. The plot is meticulous and thoughtful.
