Liu Guigui was an avid reader of all kinds of Qing-dynasty harem novels set during the Qianlong reign.
She was a devoted fan of Consort Ling, though sometimes she favored the Empress as well.
She had read dozens of novels like My Fair Princess and Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace, each one over and over.
Even with her eyes closed, she could name all the women in Qianlong's harem and tell you which women bore which children. She knew every last thing about the harem.
During a dull summer vacation, while wrestling with several tangled and unresolved relationship problems in real life,
Guigui persevered in following the shameless author's long-running unfinished novel, Tales of the Qing Palace, on her computer. She had been reading it for years.
Her mind was full of the male lead, Qianlong, and the female lead, Jingru, and whether their children would be harmed.
She also pondered deeply whether a harem without cuckolding, abortions, and hardcore palace intrigue could even exist.
But the author, Chang'er, was taking forever to update.
Jiong Gong, a chivalrous wanderer who had lived in quiet seclusion by Hangzhou's West Lake for many years,
possessed all sorts of survival skills and strange abilities unknown to others.
While fiddling with someone else's phone, he happened upon Guigui, anxiously waiting for an update and muttering to herself in a group chat.
Moved by compassion for all living things, Jiong Gong lightly tapped the phone's keyboard.
With the slightest effort, he sent Liu Guigui back to Qianlong's harem, transmigrating her into the body of her previous incarnation, Liu Lu, a peerlessly beautiful young lady from Jiangnan.
And so the story begins.
See how Liu Guigui, a top student from the twenty-first century well versed in historical facts and every kind of palace-intrigue tactic, rises among Qianlong's consorts and takes the Qing harem by storm.
Multiple people may transmigrate into the past at irregular intervals.
