Question: What should you do if you transmigrate into a book as the beautiful but unloved Crown Prince’s concubine and political marriage princess?
Sui Sui, lying flat like a salted fish: “Stay out of the Crown Prince’s way, eat and drink until the story ends, then pack up and go home.”
After all, I’m just a nobody whose name appears in the extras.

To fulfill her proper role as a nobody, Sui Sui avoids competing for attention and settles into a life of doing nothing.
But she still has to deal with:
A drama-loving Crown Prince who has someone else in his heart but still drags her into putting on an act.
A nitpicking Crown Princess who begrudges every little thing and hates her to the core.
The other Eastern Palace consorts and the Empress, who never pass up a chance to watch the drama unfold.
Even the usually benevolent Emperor and Empress Dowager are both very interested in handsome men.
But...
Silver-threaded slices of fresh crucian carp, fragrant celery and green-stream soup,
Dongpo pork red as agate, and blazing-hot sliced meat cooked at the table.
And if that’s not enough, there are takoyaki, grilled cold noodles, jianbing wraps, and so much more...
Sui Sui cuts a path through every obstacle with her delicious food, only to somehow end up becoming Empress.
Sui Sui, giving her phone the old-person stare: “Did I get the script for a wish-fulfillment heroine who rises to power?”

Li Guanting: Woof, woof, woof! Wifey, look at me!
Sui Sui: I’m busy! Don’t call me!
Li Guanting: I dismissed the whole harem for you. Praise me!
Sui Sui: I’m busy! I’m cooking.
Li Guanting: I made you the mother of the empire. Praise me!
Sui Sui, crossing her hands: “No way! I just want to lie flat.”
Sui Sui, muttering very quietly: “Did that dog of a man get replaced?”
Li Guanting, suddenly appearing: “No!” (reaching out like Er Kang) “I simply love you dearly.”
#Master of playing dumb x dramatic, sweet on the outside and dark within
#Did I get the wrong script and become Empress?
