Relying on Food to Achieve Victory in the Rear Palace

[The next food-themed novel: The Gourmet Journey Begins After I Quit Showbiz. Add it to your favorites if you're interested =3=]

Wan Anran transmigrates into the Qing Dynasty as a low-ranking consort in Emperor Kangxi's harem.

Her predecessor was critically ill and ignored by everyone. After she managed to survive, she lost the Emperor's favor. Then she tried to fight her way up in the palace, only to be crushed. She still had more than forty years as a low-ranking consort ahead of her. There was only one word for it: miserable!

Wan Anran's mission is to become the most powerful woman in the harem and dispel her predecessor's resentment.

Wan Anran: ...You're really making this hard for me, Hu Fei.

Of course, there is one piece of good news: her predecessor was the longest-lived consort of the Qing Dynasty, living to the ripe old age of ninety-seven.

With no talent for palace intrigue whatsoever, Wan Anran quickly makes up her mind: To hell with this mission! She plans to retire early and enjoy eating and drinking her way to a ripe old age as a happy low-ranking consort in the Qing palace.

How about starting with a barbecue?

Once she starts, there's no stopping her: barbecue, hot pot, fried chicken drumsticks, fries, hash browns, mashed potatoes, skewers, cold noodles, spicy chicken, cream cheese, cheese, biscuits, mochi, and cake...

But Wan Anran had only planned to comfort herself with good food. She never expected it to win her countless powerful allies, or to carry her all the way from low-ranking consort to Attendant, Noble Lady, Concubine, and Consort...

[Note] A lighthearted harem story with little romance. It's mainly about the heroine's happy life in the harem.

[Note] The princes' birth order is slightly different. You'll get used to it.

Coming soon: Transmigrating into a Difficult Noble Consort (Qing Transmigration)

It wasn't until Gao Zhenru was named a Side Consort that she learned she'd transmigrated into a novel and become the villainous Noble Consort Gao.

She was spoiled and willful, throwing her weight around in the harem because she was favored.

She stirred up resentment among the consorts, earned the Empress Dowager's disapproval, and squandered the Emperor's affection. In contrast, the heroine seemed gentle and kind. In the end, Gao Zhenru was reprimanded and confined to the palace, where she died of an epidemic.

Gao Zhenru: ...

And one more thing: as long as she completes her role as a villainous supporting character, she can return to the modern world!

Well... what is there to be afraid of?

Gao Zhenru counts on her fingers: She has more than a decade left, so she might as well enjoy herself!

Qianlong is picky, sharp-tongued, and sarcastic?

Gao Zhenru puts up with it all. She diligently follows the script and plays the part of a pampered consort, acting arrogant and extravagant. Wasteful... ahem, she can't actually waste things, can she?

And so Gao Zhenru rises all the way to Noble Consort. When she reaches the age she was supposed to die, she realizes that something is wrong.

Why is she still full of life?

Where's the heroine? How did the heroine just disappear? Gao Zhenru is frustrated and anxious, and looks increasingly haggard. Then she discovers that everyone in the harem is acting strange.

Emperor: "The Noble Consort looks haggard. I can't eat or sleep because of it."

Empress Dowager, Empress, and the consorts: "Who dares bully our Noble Consort!?"

Theme: The simple life is the best life.
