A seemingly gentle transmigrated heroine with a sharp tongue, paired with a miserable emperor whose body was mistakenly occupied by the Favorite Consort System
...The heroine's point of view...
As a transmigrated woman with no grand ambitions, Wang Zhenzhu, born into a poor working family's household, only wants a good life in the countryside and plenty of delicious food. But life is unpredictable. The high-quality ancient husband she found for herself dies in an accident while making a delivery, leaving nineteen-year-old Wang Zhenzhu and her tiny daughter to be thrown out of their home.
Fortunately, her birth family is dependable. They take her and her granddaughter in and treat them well. When the first imperial selection after the period of national mourning arrives, Wang Zhenzhu agrees to take part in place of her engaged cousin, to repay her uncle's family for their kindness. She thinks it will be a mere formality, but ends up selected to serve the emperor, and is trapped in the imperial harem from then on.
...The uncertain male lead's point of view...
Emperor Jingde's life is full of tableware. At death's door, he is completely bound to the Favorite Consort System, which has mistaken him for someone else. With the System's help, he fights his way through the struggle for the throne, only to become a corporate drone.
What's worse, during the imperial selection he meets the fiendish Wang Zhenzhu, and the System forces him to listen as the smiling Wang Zhenzhu curses him furiously in her heart.
Faced with this infuriating "fated woman," Emperor Jingde tries to resist, but when the System brings down both the stick and the carrot, he caves at once.
When he doesn't want to follow the plot, a wave of intense pain and a System warning nearly kill him on the spot: [Warning! The target's affection has dropped to zero. The player must turn things around within 24 hours or be eliminated!]
When he doesn't want to raise her affection, the System suddenly offers a remarkably thoughtful tip: [You've unlocked the Heart-Fluttering Shop. Enjoy a 70% discount during the protagonist's first month in the palace!]
Emperor Jingde: ...?? Wait, what the heck is the Heart-Fluttering Shop?
Also, why does Wang Zhenzhu still call him a rotten cucumber and the harem's top courtesan after everything he's done? Why isn't she moved yet? Please, at least be a little touched! Otherwise, what am I supposed to trade for the beginner's rice cultivation manual?
Emperor Jingde, exhausted beyond words: Let's destroy the world! Hurry up.
What's even more destructive is that, seeing the mission is doomed to fail, the System's supervisor gets called to account by their own superior and sends over even more Systems to help.
(Posted September 1, 2022) Inspired by the author's wondering why so many doting romances have the heroine pursuing the hero, rather than the hero pursuing the heroine.
This story's plot has gone off the rails, so it'll be locked until the paid chapters are made free. No need to wait for it. Thank you.
Theme: Even ordinary people deserve respect.
He seems to have some serious illness in his brain.
These titles are given to show the importance given to pearls.
Although I don't think highly of people who rely on nepotism to get to the top,
But as an old man, he couldn't appreciate the beauty of pearls.
Pearls can only use the method of increasing power.
In ancient times, women could not fight alone in the court.
Lao Deng is so useless and has no way to upgrade the system.
Pearl couldn't take the path of conquering ten societies with one force.
He wanted to earn Pearl's favor but always felt that he had been wronged.
I can't even please people,
A useless snack that can't position itself correctly.
In addition, Pearl's concerns are well-founded and considerate of the country.
Pearl here is talking about corruption.
In order to antagonize Pearl, Lao Deng secretly changed the concept to the issue of conferring titles on relatives.
God cannot control the minds of old foxes,
The people's survival problems cannot be solved.
This emperor's position is really not suitable for Lao Deng.
When will this idiot take the throne?
Let Pearl show him how to be an emperor.
This emperor is a bit stupid and naive. The emperor who had just ascended the throne, the officials below were testing his bottom line and quality!
You trash emperor, there is always something about you that makes me test your masculinity.
This emperor is too stupid. After seeing such a stupid leader, people with no ambition would want to replace him. However, stupidity also has its advantages. If it were a shrewd emperor, the heroine might be able to handle it.
This eldest brother is indeed a brat, but both his uncle and cousin can handle him well.
The uncle seems to be a good man, but why did he give birth to a son who wanted to sell his sister for glory [question mark]
How do you solve v woo woo woo?
How come this emperor hasn't corrected his position yet and has unnecessary excessive self-esteem [rolls eyes]
Ah! Suddenly I understood why I always felt something strange.
The background is too detailed, at the level of a Machiavellian drama, but the main plot (Pearl herself and her surrounding environment) is currently not related to these details, not to mention that the copywriting is too light-hearted at first, so I can't remember it at all, and it interrupts the main plot.
I feel that this kind of writing is more of a group portrait, but except for He/the emperor's queen's eunuch/daughter beside Pearl, I basically don't remember who is who. The former Jin Yiwei? Dongchang? I don't remember any of the relationships between the characters who looked awesome, and the relationships between them, because there was no relevant plot to continue. There is also Da Cao and Xiao Cao. I vaguely remember that the two of them didn't seem to be that harmonious. They sold their daughters for glory and then begged for the pearl's head. Now in Huguang, the information I extracted is: The south has never been very obedient to the emperor? Nanjing Zhili is working hard, and the secret guards or pure edicts drawn out are in Huguang, preparing to protect the Pearl family and work for the emperor.
Those old things? Too many details feel a bit cumbersome. It depends on what style the author has in mind. What if it's a group portrait? It might be useful for the big events after the heroine becomes emperor (and she doesn't rely on the system).
Be more confident, Lao Deng 🐶, your courtiers are indeed difficult to deal with 🍉, but Lao Deng, you are indeed a good loser [clown]
