The Female Supporting Character Specializes in Putting People in Their Place [Quick Transmigration]

A female supporting character may be smart, hardworking, and beautiful, but without the heroine's halo, she ultimately becomes a stepping stone for the protagonists, commonly known as cannon fodder.

Gu Tang became just such a character. Her goal now is revenge and payback: she'll make everyone who wronged her kneel at her feet and call her daddy.

“Young master, you haven't been home in three months.”

“Does my mother regret it?”

“The old madam has stripped you of your inheritance.”

*

“Master, you've had your daughter sent off to farm for three years.”

“Has she admitted her mistake?”

“No. She's leased an entire mountain and cut off your supply of raw materials.”

Notes:

1. This is an entirely fictional parallel-universe AU. The fantasy starts from the moment of transmigration, so please don't compare it to reality.

2. Everything in the plot serves the face-slapping and feel-good wish fulfillment.

3. The villain's IQ < the heroine's IQ < the author's IQ = an ordinary person, so it's only natural that the villains seem stupid.

As everyone knows, being a heroine is the hardest job in the world. To achieve victory in the end, she has to endure all kinds of hardships and injustices, give up all kinds of things, and bear humiliation and heavy burdens.

The male lead abuses her, his parents abuse her, his siblings abuse her, his one true love abuses her, his son abuses her, and even her own family gets involved. When necessary, even random passersby can throw their weight around at her expense.

Su Xiang transmigrates into the role of just such a heroine. After enduring countless hardships, she finally completes her mission and looks at her final reward: a man.

That's it? That's it? That's it? Su Xiang tears up the script.

To hell with it.

“Why Is She Still the Empress?”

Tang Zhiyue is the second daughter of the Director of Communications. Delicate and beautiful, she's the number one beauty in the capital.

At fifteen, just as marriage discussions begin, the Fourth Prince takes an interest in her.

But then her full sister, Tang Zhiyun, is reborn and goes to great lengths to ruin her own reputation so she can steal Tang Zhiyue's marriage prospect.

Tang Zhiyun: You don't know? He's going to be emperor one day, so I'll be empress.

But there are plenty of eligible young men in the capital. If the Fourth Prince is out, there's still the Fifth Prince.

Then, just a few days later, Zhou Jinyu, daughter of the Commander of the Imperial Guards, transmigrates into a book and uses her father's influence to steal the Fifth Prince.

Zhou Jinyu: You don't know? He's going to be emperor one day, so I'll be empress.

After that, Tang Zhiyue is introduced to the son of the commander of the Five City Troops, the second son of the Marquis of Changning, the eldest son of a cavalry general, and the eldest son of the Minister of Personnel. Every one of them gets snatched away along the way.

Her cousins: You don't know? He's going to be emperor one day, so I'll be empress.

After her marriage prospects keep falling through, Tang Zhiyue goes to a temple to clear her mind and meets Zaijie, a holy monk and the late emperor's youngest son, who became a monk to escape danger because of his frail health.

The holy monk has red lips, white teeth, and a cinnabar mole between his brows. “This humble monk is Zaijie, the ‘jie’ in ‘there's no escaping fate.’”

Tang Zhiyue suddenly feels hopeful again. Since the holy monk is frail and has to return to secular life, no one steals him away this time.

Who knew that three years later, the monk who returned to secular life would become emperor, and Tang Zhiyue would become empress again?

Tang Zhiyun, Zhou Jinyu, and all the cousins: Why is she still the empress?!
