One-sentence summary: The heroine disguises herself as a man, sneaks into the imperial court, and rises through the ranks in an ancient workplace revenge story.
In this splendid court, who will be the final true king?
Central idea: Explore the sins and desires of human nature (believe in my ghost, just to make it taller)
Attributes of the heroine: scumbag in attributes, dog-feeding in outlook, MAX beauty, high IQ, compassion for women, dark personality, hardworking, eh, okay, not so decent.
We have a tacit understanding of calling her the dark Mary Sue heroine.
Reminder: The author changed his writing skills from elementary school to junior high school. He never got an A in composition. Failing math is the norm and his logical thinking is poor.
Fellow Taoists, please automatically switch the heroine's IQ to the one you like and put on the fan filter to protect your eyes and soul.
Shen Lingbi in the beginning is the heroine, make no mistake about it
