Qin Yan transmigrated into a book.
In this restricted novel, titled The Regent King's Bedchamber Incense, her mission was to save several villains who were being tormented by the stallion male lead and were about to destroy the world, and turn this smut-filled, explicit, censored novel into a wholesome romance.
Cao Dugong, the future eunuch who speaks with the authority of imperial decrees and persecutes loyal officials, is still a young palace eunuch who spends his days cleaning the halls, so exhausted by his grueling duties that he secretly cries.
Gao Guifei, the future viper-hearted demon consort who will throw the court into chaos, is still a little girl forced into the palace, struggling to survive in the imperial harem.
Yuan Luo, the future tyrant who will exploit the people and wage endless wars, is still the sixth prince, born to a low-status mother, forced to endure his brothers' bullying and the palace servants' quiet cruelty.
Xie Qinghui, the future treacherous minister, peerless in cunning and sinister in his schemes, is the eldest legitimate son of the Duke of An, but suffers his stepmother's cold neglect and cruelty every day. His heart condition strikes so severely that he longs for death.
Qin Yan drives away the senior eunuch who bullies Cao Yongnian, takes little Gao Zhuxin under her wing, secretly helps Yuan Luo, and summons an imperial physician to treat Xie Qinghui.
She teaches the children about equality and benevolence, that the people are the foundation of the state and that a strong foundation brings peace, and about the joys and sorrows of ordinary people's lives. She hopes with all her heart that these poor little cabbages will grow from dark, explicit villains into well-rounded young people who embody the virtues of civility, courtesy, hygiene, discipline, and morality.
Ruffling Cao Yongnian's hair, pinching the cheeks of Yuan Luo and Xie Qinghui, and holding adorable little Zhuxin in her arms, Qin Yan felt a tremendous sense of accomplishment!
We thought we could only spend our lives trapped in the mire, sinking into the abyss. Yet someone, with a single act of compassion, cast light upon us. The darkness of our lives gave way to light, and only then did we realize how vast the world was, how plants bloomed in spring, and how the sun and moon renewed themselves.
The distant bright moon: how can I repay you...
