"Your Majesty, the Noble Consort has been confined for three days."

"Has she admitted her mistake?"

"No. The Noble Consort has decided to rise in revolt. She's coming this way with a sword!"

"?!"

Jiang Wan was born into privilege and had an easy life until the age of seventeen. Then she woke up one day and discovered she was the number-one cannon fodder villainess in an old-fashioned Mary Sue romance.

In the story, she was a Noble Consort who devoted herself to the emperor but never won his favor. Wary of the power of her maternal family, the emperor would scheme against them at every turn, ultimately having her family exterminated and her father and brothers killed.

Meanwhile, her nemesis, Consort Shu, was the heroine of the story and the emperor's white moonlight. She coasted to victory and eventually became empress, dancing on Jiang Wan's grave.

Pah! What a pair of scoundrels!

Jiang Wan tore up the script in a fury. She was done being the Noble Consort!

The weather's turning cold. Time for a change of dynasty...

*

Emperor Xiao Yi of the Jiawu era was cold and ruthless, with a forceful hand. He never got caught up in romantic affairs. During an outing, he was suddenly struck by lightning. When he woke up, he was bound to a "Noble Consort Conquest System."

From then on, he could only stay alive by earning the Noble Consort's affection.

Xiao Yi was full of confidence. The Noble Consort was devoted to him, so he was sure to live a long life.

But then

[Dear user, her affection score is negative. You have fifteen minutes to earn her favor, or the System will erase you immediately.]

Xiao Yi: ...

Looking at the Noble Consort, who was weeping so hard she could barely breathe, as if her mother had just died, Xiao Yi's composure crumbled.

*

One day, a young eunuch came rushing to report

"Your Majesty, this is terrible! Her Ladyship the Noble Consort has kicked Consort Shu into the river again!"

The emperor glanced at the affection score shooting straight up and leisurely took a sip of tea. "Go tie up everyone the Noble Consort can't stand, bring them to the river, and let her kick them in one by one."

A certain chief eunuch drifted by in silence. "Your Majesty, the person Her Ladyship can't stand the most is you."

Emperor: "...Should I go for a swim, then?"

A Noble Consort who just wants to stir up trouble, do whatever she likes, and get ahead, versus a humble emperor who is perfectly respectable but forced to do whatever it takes to survive

[Important content warnings]:

1. The story within the book is fictional. There is no white moonlight or dark past. The male and female leads are 1v1 and both virgins.

2. The heroine is delicate and beautiful, but not especially clever. A little affectation is good for you.

3. Romance-focused, silly and sweet. Homemade comfort food, pure fun.

As an overworked corporate drone, Wen Xi suddenly died and transmigrated into the body of an ignored, unloved daughter of a marquis.

Taking the view that you should make the best of whatever life throws at you, Wen Xi promptly decided to lie flat. She chose to pet cats, tease dogs, and live like a lazy fish, leaving everything to fate.

Until one day, she woke up and discovered that she'd switched bodies with the regent...

What?

The regent was ruthless, vicious, and cruel, holding the young emperor hostage and controlling the government. His reputation was so vile it could frighten children into silence. He was a full-fledged villainous powerhouse?

Wen Xi: Don't panic. This is nothing!

Choosing to ignore the regent's horrifyingly cruel deeds, Wen Xi admired her freshly minted eight-pack abs and drooled over the prince's vast wealth. Then she calmly declared: As long as all the parts are there, it's no problem!

As for the extra parts...

Wen Xi: Heh heh heh heh heh.

With the admirable attitude that you might as well take advantage of a good deal, Wen Xi launched straight into a daily routine of role-playing and throwing her weight around.

But...

Nobody told her that princes had endless official business and assassination attempts to deal with, on top of eating and drinking!

Looking at the mountain of reports waiting for her approval on the desk, and the crowd of assassins shouting that they were going to take her life, Wen Xi's smile slowly faded.

So, can I ask to switch back now, or is it too late?!

*

Everyone knew that although the regent wielded immense power, he had no interest in women. Rumors even circulated that he was impotent.

Then one day, before the eyes of a crowd, the regent, who had always kept his emotions hidden, rushed into the marquis's estate with his men. He beat up the son of the Minister of Revenue, who had come to take a concubine from the marquis's household, and declared that the girl was under his protection and no one else could marry her!

After that, rumors that he was gay were quickly disproved, and soon the capital was abuzz with stories of how madly the regent was in love with the marquis's illegitimate daughter...

As for this

Wen Xi, out and about in the regent's body, beamed with delight: Yes, exactly! I love her soooo much

The regent, whose image as a devoted lover had come out of nowhere and been utterly ruined, gritted his teeth. "...Please, just shut up!"

Lin Suizhi went to war at fourteen. He spent half his life on horseback, winning distinction in battle. Before he was thirty, he had seized great power, risen to the highest halls of government, and taken control of the court while supporting the young emperor.

He believed that after all the hardship and adversity he had weathered, nothing in the world could shake him.

But Lin Suizhi never imagined that after an ordinary assassination attempt, he would wake up in a different body, as an unloved illegitimate daughter of the Yuan'an Marquis's household.

Looking at the unfamiliar, delicate feminine face in the mirror, the regent, who had always considered himself calm and composed, lost his composure for the first time.

*

At first, Lin Suizhi's face was livid. "Once I recover, I will punish this insolent wretch who dares to offend me again and again!"

Later, Lin Suizhi volunteered: "A Xi, how about I give birth for you?"
