Blurb:
He Wenxin transmigrates into a princess in a ridiculous comedy novel. She plans to eat, drink, and enjoy a carefree life, but she never expects that the court officials can hear her thoughts.
At a tea banquet, the emperor smiles as he discusses the marriage prospects of their children with the chancellor.
Sitting in a corner and nibbling on pastries, He Wenxin thinks, "Sigh, the First Prince already has someone he truly loves. Marrying the chancellor's daughter is just a temporary measure. Once the First Prince ascends the throne and secures his rule, he'll install a new empress and exile the chancellor's whole family to the borderlands."
While she's lamenting this, the chancellor is already sweating profusely as he turns down the proposal.
At the Imperial Academy, the white-bearded tutor is certain he can teach the unruly young prince.
He Wenxin thinks to herself, "Too bad the young prince will never change. He'll kill his brother and seize the throne, and even when the tutor throws himself against the palace hall, he won't stop the prince from indulging in wine and women."
The tutor nearly chokes, then sweeps out of the room.
Before long, He Wenxin's princess's residence has gained three thousand retainers, and the competition for the position of her consort is fierce.
Heads of noble clans recommend their handsome, talented sons. Ambitious lords appear at her side without bothering to hide their intentions. A young general returns victorious and begins reminiscing with her about their childhood...
Even the emperor of a neighboring kingdom travels a thousand miles to marry her, then refuses to leave her side.
The princes scheme against one another, locked in a deadly struggle, never expecting that their seemingly fragile sister will be the one to ascend the throne.
He Wenxin: How did I somehow win without doing anything?
1. The heroine will ascend the throne. This is a wish-fulfillment romance full of feelings and entirely devoid of political scheming.
2. Both leads transmigrate, and both are each other's first.
