I Read My Way into a Cannon-Fodder Young Marquis

(Two powerful leads + sweet romance + pocket dimension. If the heroine weren't a woman, this would probably be a double... ahem.) Xiao Chu is a well-known online novelist. She wakes up one day as a young marquis in a reborn heroine story, a character who gets killed off as soon as the heroine returns to the past. The especially miserable kind of cannon fodder. Want to get engaged? The kind where your whole family gets executed. Xiao Chu has a headache. What a terrible hand to be dealt right from the start. And that's not all. The villain has his eye on her, too. All she wants is to live her own quiet little life. She has no interest in the main characters' love-and-hate drama and wants no part of it. But it seems the tide has turned. All sorts of spicy stories about her and the villain are spreading like wildfire, and in the end, she gets captured by the villain. The Chancellor Xiao's daily routine is handling a mountain of official business. The Prince Jing's daily routine is to clutch a pillow and complain to the emperor in his bedchamber that he is neglecting his duties. The emperor is at his wits' end. What is going on here...? Minister Xiao, please come take your prince away. This is a story of rising through the ranks in ancient times. Watch Xiao Chu climb step by step from a minor county magistrate to the chancellor of the court, becoming a good official praised by the people. (Please add this to your collection.)
