A note before reading: This may look like a martial arts world, but it's really a story about the imperial court. The protagonist is not at the center of the court's power struggles, so please keep that in mind.
Office drone Tao Lanlan transmigrates into a book and becomes a maid in the Fang residence, where she's about to be killed. She has nothing except a gossip-gathering System that's useless at everything except eating.
Faced with a disastrous start, Tao Lanlan pulls herself together and picks her way through layer upon layer of gossip to find a way to stay alive. She and her younger sister even manage to escape their servitude at the Marquis's residence.
But with next to nothing, how can she get ahead?
Tao Lanlan strikes a deal with the original novel's heroine. She uses the heroine's money and influence, while the heroine gets information from her.
Only, the little restaurant the heroine gives her soon becomes the largest information exchange in the martial world.
One day.
"Boss Tao, don't push your luck!"
Wearing a mask, Tao Lanlan sighs. "Censor Wang, you've contracted syphilis. It's quite serious. If you don't see a doctor, you might not live to see tomorrow."
The customer, who had been throwing his weight around just moments ago, scurries away in a panic.
Tao Lanlan leisurely takes a sip of tea. What can you do? There's always someone who wants to test the System's ability to gather information.
"Boss, would you really not consider giving me a chance?" Tang Zhe asks in a cautious voice.
Well, someone isn't afraid!
One time, Tang Zhe is drugged and lies on Tao Lanlan's bed, his face flushed.
The moment Tao Lanlan lights the lamp, she sees his eight-pack abs on full display. She jumps in shock. Tsk! He's trying to seduce me!
She gives Tang Zhe a stern talking-to as she gets him dressed. "Young Master Tang, a person should have some self-respect. I know I'm very charming, but you really shouldn't behave like this!"
Reason for entering the contest:
A carp leaping through the Dragon Gate, rising from behind to take the lead.
From lowly maid to restaurant owner, then to an empire of properties and dominance over the martial world, Tao Lanlan ignores the gossip and swims against the current. She builds her wealth one step at a time and takes control of power bit by bit, eventually rising from an ant in everyone's eyes to become the master of the Feiwen Pavilion, who helps usher in a new ruler. No one can stop her.
P.S. The events may not unfold in the same order as in the blurb.

This is the first time I have received a red envelope from the author. Thank you very much. Although not many people have read it, you must keep writing. It is difficult for anyone to become popular at the beginning. They all come out step by step. Come on, it will be great if you can start writing what you want to write.
