Lan Ning transmigrated from the apocalypse into Emperor Kangxi's harem, becoming Ma Jia, the future Consort Rong. Knowing that historically she bore five sons and one daughter, but only one son and one daughter survived, she understood just how terrifying the imperial harem was.
Lan Ning decided to give up trying. Whoever wanted to fight for the emperor's favor could go ahead; she wasn't going to compete. Wasn't it better to be a happy couch potato?
So she settled into a daily routine of eating and drinking, and lived quite comfortably.
Your Majesty, could you please stop hovering around me all the time? How am I supposed to enjoy my leisurely days like this? How am I supposed to focus on eating?
When she looked back, she had somehow become the one and only favored consort in the harem, and eventually even became empress.
Lan Ning: Why is it so hard to just give up and take it easy? My heart is exhausted, and my back is so sore!
*At the end, here's the guide to eating couch potatoes, compiled by Kangxi: Couch potatoes taste best when pan-fried on both sides. You can eat them up to seven times a day. Go over that, and you'll get kicked out of bed.
It's just that while writing it, Kangxi had a complete meltdown. How could she not love me?
PS: Alternate history, with exclusive favor later on.
Coming soon: A Qing Dynasty Story: Kangxi's Favored Consort
Si Yu transmigrated into the Kangxi harem as an unnamed, unranked, and unfavored maid who served in the imperial chambers.
What kind of life did an unfavored chamber maid have?
She shared a room with three others, got only two meals a day, had to wear plain, baggy clothes, take turns working shifts with the other maids, and still had to sleep with Kangxi at night.
Si Yu: This is awful. Truly awful. Even modern-day corporate slaves don't have it this bad!
In short, for a room of her own, meat at every meal, pretty clothes, and not having to work, Si Yu decided she was going to become a favored consort!

Guo Yutong transmigrated into the body of a pitiful woman who had been cast out by her husband's family after his death because she hadn't borne a son. She was also the elder sister of the future Consort Yi, Guo Luoluo Yutong.
As it happened, her younger sister in the palace had yet to give birth, so the family planned to send another woman into the palace. And as it happened, Guo Yutong had given birth to twin daughters, an auspicious sign, so she was sent to the palace.

Why does the heroine look like White Lotus, she looks like a spoiled wife literature [covering face and laughing]
The total age of the heroine in her past and present lives is 27, right? Not 28 years old.
"Lan Ning is holding this purple ice-patterned cup..." This is a big bug for the author~ Concubine Li, written earlier
"Lan Ning is still a little scared, but..." This is a big bug for the author~ eyes
"I didn't support him boarding the plane in the first place" This is a big bug for the author~ ascend the throne
"Only one lost" is a big bug for the author~ comb
195 Is too dramatic 😂
1.9 Meters and 1.8 Meters are both too big.
Kangxi's self-guided strategy is fine!
The male protagonist Tong Jia is really difficult to work with!
