After He Read My Mind, the Tyrant Helped Me Fight for His Favor

One day, Qi Wenqi transmigrates and discovers she's become a lowly palace maid in an ancient imperial harem. At the same time, a mechanical voice sounds in her mind:

[Hello. Congratulations on activating the Palace Intrigue System.]

Qi Wenqi is so unlucky she can only laugh.

Sending a clear-eyed college girl like her into palace intrigue is no different from sending her to her death!

If palace intrigue were really that easy, why did the original owner die silently in the harem?

This imperial palace is a hell that devours people without spitting out the bones. Every single one of them is a master schemer.

What chance does a powerless palace maid like her have against them?

What's more, the new emperor is notorious for his cruelty, violence, and unpredictable temper!

Qi Wenqi looks at the list of tasks displayed in the System and decides that as a lowly palace maid, she can just lie flat, close her eyes, and settle in as a laundry maid.

[Please complete the task "Outshine the Entire Harem" to receive a body immune to all poisons!]

[Please become the "Enemy of the Entire Harem" to receive a special Good Weather buff!]

[Please unlock the achievement "Three Thousand Beauties, One True Love" to receive premium sweet potato seedlings yielding five thousand jin per mu!]

When she hears that the new emperor has been executing palace maids day after day, Qi Wenqi is even secretly relieved, thinking it's a good thing she's an insignificant nobody.

But then, someone deliberately assigns her to serve the tyrant.

Thinking of the tyrant's bloodthirsty cruelty, Qi Wenqi feels ready to wash her neck and await her death.

Who could have guessed that on her very first day of duty, she'd be rocketed straight from a lowly palace maid to the position of Noble Consort!

The news quickly spreads throughout the harem. The consorts who had been eyeing the position of Noble Consort immediately see Qi Wenqi, the sudden upstart, as a thorn in their side.

And Qi Wenqi stares blankly at the notification that pops up from the System.

[Congratulations, Host! You have become the "Enemy of the Entire Harem". The special Good Weather buff has been issued!]

Qi Wenqi is shocked and confused. She's pretty, sure, but not so beautiful that a tyrant would fall in love at first sight, is she?

Why has the tyrant suddenly become as if he'd been bewitched by her?

Qi Wenqi has a lot of questions.

Still, the capital has been suffering from drought for months, and even the palace is running short on water. This buff could bring the capital a much-needed downpour, so she can't help feeling happy too.

As Qi Wenqi's favor with the emperor continues to grow, many in the harem are so jealous they grind their teeth, all hoping to see her lose his favor and fall into disgrace.

But in reality, the current emperor, who shows no warmth to anyone else, dotes only on Qi Wenqi. Eventually, he even puts her on the long-vacant throne of empress.

And when Qi Wenqi looks at the countless task rewards in her System inventory, she can only feel bewildered.

So palace intrigue can be this easy?

When the emperor hears her thoughts, he helplessly flicks her forehead. "You're the empress now. Could you try to be a little more perceptive?"

Yan Jingge thinks that if he hadn't secretly helped Qi Wenqi fend off those sinister plots, the grass on her grave would probably be taller than she is!
