Transmigrating to the Song Dynasty to Become an Agent

The author's column, "Dreams of Bianjing," is being updated. Feel free to read it.

After a drunken misstep sent her into the water, top agent Xiao Tong transmigrated and inherited a struggling talent agency on the verge of bankruptcy. Gazing at the goddess on whom her predecessor had recklessly splurged, she grinned. "Miss Si, would you like to sign with my agency?"

"You can choose any performance venue in the pleasure quarters!"

"We'll create a play just for you!"

The goddess eyed the infamous rich girl and grew wary. "Only if you swear you'll stop having improper thoughts about me!"

From then on, Xiao Tong devoted herself to her career: starting a tabloid, creating IPs, putting on operas, producing variety shows...

What goddess? What romance? Isn't making money much better?

Until one day, she woke up with a bright red lipstick mark on her face...

Si Qinghu was a popular performer of zhugongdiao in Bianjing. After falling out with her former employer, she turned around and started working with a rich girl.

Everyone said she had fallen into a trap, and had ruined a winning hand. They were sure she was in for a hard life.

But then...

The opera "Hua Mulan" was a hit at the pleasure quarters, and Si Qinghu became famous throughout Bianjing, a dream girl whom noblewomen chased after.

Watching the rich girl who had once pursued her relentlessly become a different person after a serious illness, growing clever, capable, gentle, and considerate, Si Qinghu found herself entertaining a new idea for the first time...

Notes:

1. A historical entertainment-industry story with a farming-life feel. They earn money while falling in love.

2. An alternate Song dynasty setting where same-sex marriage is legal.

3. The setting is entirely made up, so please don't scrutinize it.

Also known as "A Tycoon's Granddaughter's Road to Becoming a General"

Lighthearted blurb:

Luo Weining, a third-generation rich girl, transmigrates into a poor female con artist who makes a living by dressing as a penniless scholar and cheating rich young ladies out of their money. When she first arrives in Bianjing, she accepts a small task from a mysterious organization. The leader promises her a hundred taels of gold once it's done! Thinking fortune has dropped into her lap, she ends up offending the emperor's uncle and picking a fight with Grand Preceptor Cai. Boss, help me!

Boss: "I've arranged everything. Join the army. It's safer."

Luo Weining: "No! I want the gold! You said it was a small task, you liar!"

Boss: "Join the army and stay alive for now. Once we defeat Grand Preceptor Cai, I'll give you the gold and send you home."

But Grand Preceptor Cai attacks the military camp!

Boss: "Do well in the army and try to become a general. It'll keep you alive. Once it's done, I'll give you the gold."

It's a total trap. The person Luo Weining hates most in this life is that boss, who withholds her pay and puts her in the line of fire.

Until one day, she discovers that the boss is the wife she married with all the proper rites!

Serious blurb:

When Yang Xi was ten, she watched her mother lie in front of her, covered in blood. She thought the only purpose of her life was to eliminate corrupt officials and avenge her mother. Then, during the Lantern Festival, she went out with a princess and met Luo Weining, a con artist who cheated people out of their money.

For her, she broke her principles and arranged for her to join the army.

For her, she put her in armor and made her a capable general in her own right.

She let go of her hatred and became only her general's wife.

She knew of the Jingkang disaster and that nothing could be done to turn the tide, yet she still led the remnants of her army and built a wall of flesh and blood to protect her, giving her a lifetime of peace.

Separated by a thousand years, they were bound together by fate. They swore eternal vows in an age of prosperity and relied on one another through times of chaos.
