Rising Through the Ranks: A Lowly Maid's Promotion

Tan Qingwan, a future medical PhD, transmigrated and became a maid newly hired by the Prince Yu's residence. The bad news: she was at the very bottom of the ranks. The good news: she had five years to work her way to the top.

Tan Qingwan, the youngest director of a medical research institute, had enjoyed smooth sailing in the modern world. Now, faced with an ancient system of advancement she'd never encountered, she was fired up. A long climb sounded great! Exciting! Tan Qingwan was best at taking things one step at a time. She could learn to scheme, but she had to take it slowly.

She was going to become a successful woman who reached the top and married a rich, handsome young wolf or puppy. For now, she would start by escaping the bottom-rank maids' crowded dormitory!

Tan Qingwan was skilled in medicine, making face masks, blending incense, and preparing remedies. In just a few months, the Princess Consort of Prince Yu was so impressed that she kept Tan Qingwan by her side as her trusted adviser.

As Tan Qingwan's five-year contract neared its end, the Princess Consort of Prince Yu had become Empress, and Tan Qingwan's head maid had left her side. Everyone watched the pair ride out of the capital and sighed with emotion. Even the current emperor's great-aunt, the Grand Princess, cried, "How did my perfectly lovely Qingwan end up eloping with my foolish son? I'll mourn for a whole stick of incense!"
