Empress Gu, a woman of absolute power and privilege, had enjoyed a life of wealth and luxury for most of her life. Who would have thought she would be so unexpectedly betrayed, falling victim to the very wolf cub she had doted on for ten years? A cup of poisoned wine, and her life was over. When she opened her eyes again, Empress Gu was shocked to find herself transported to a strange era, becoming a pitiful girl abandoned by her scumbag father, abused by her stepmother, and kidnapped by a scoundrel. The domineering Empress Gu declared that she absolutely could not tolerate this! What? They wanted her to become an actress? It seemed… in this so-called modern society, actors held a rather high status, a high-paying profession that brought both fame and fortune. Having enjoyed a lifetime of luxury, Empress Gu, desperate for money, thought, this… perhaps she could tolerate it! However, the dazzling array of beauties was overwhelming. So many handsome men were before her, yet she couldn't summon any to serve her in bed. The Empress felt utterly heartbroken: Being able to look but not touch was the worst! A brief summary: This is essentially a lighthearted daily life story of an empress who's a battlefield warrior, a master of intrigue, and a life of luxury, now navigating the modern city's entertainment industry, cultivating her underlings, and turning a group of pseudo-sadists into genuine masochists. Excerpt: Empress Gu: "This is for you. I thought it suited you perfectly, so I had it specially made." The man's stunningly handsome face froze for a moment, then he accepted it with both hands, a soft blush of age spreading across his ears. Empress Gu smiled indulgently, "Do you like it?" The man nodded haughtily, his obedient expression inexplicable: "Mmm." The man's subordinate covered his face, his lips twitching: This isn't right! It's a classic domineering CEO falling in love with me story, but the problem is, this domineering CEO looks more like Empress Gu than my lord! This is illogical! Empress Gu: "What's wrong? I specially made time to see you today, and you're still not happy, huh?" The man turned his head with an air of noble aloofness. "You haven't called me once in the past month." "It's enough that you call me. You know, even without a phone call, I'm thinking of you. A moment of passion is worth a thousand pieces of gold. On such a beautiful night, you wouldn't be agonizing over something like this, would you?" Empress Gu leaned forward, domineeringly lifting the man's chin, one hand against the wall, trapping the tall, slender man on the sofa. "Would you like me to undress you?" Seeing this, the man's subordinates, barely managing to suppress their utterly humiliated reactions, covered their faces and retreated: Empress Gu's move should be called a wall slam, right? Their man was actually wall-slammed, and the lines were so explicit! Oh my god, it's so embarrassing, what should I do! *****The arrogant and domineering young master of the Gu family in public transforms into a chuunibyou (delusional) sunny boy in private, fawning over everyone, "Sister! Sister! The Liu family was talking bad about you, so I taught them a lesson." Empress Dowager Gu reached out and patted her little brother's head, satisfied, "Good boy."**** Yin Chongyuan cautiously asked, "President Gu, do we... have a grudge?" Empress Dowager Gu replied enigmatically, "Perhaps." Yin Chongyuan was dumbfounded. What did that mean? "Can you tell me what the grudge is? Whatever I did wrong, I'll change, I'll change, okay?" Empress Dowager Gu: "Your mistake is that you have the exact same face as that wolf cub. You're hateful from head to toe." Yin Chongyuan: "..." This is unbearable!
The physical body can sweep away everything; I thought the Seven Gods were speed bumps.
It's a character with brains, a system, and multiple female leads; the minor cheat codes aren't really activated.
If I were to transmigrate into the body of Damon Targaryen, I would naturally maintain the persona of a carefree prince, indulging in unrestrained revelry and traveling the world. As for saving the kingdom's light and stopping the blood dragon's dance, those would be mere trifles.
[Palace intrigue/Reincarnation/Not a clean break/Lighthearted slice-of-life/Exclusive favor from the female lead/Alternate universe]
Xia Luzhu was a lowly concubine in the harem. She had been in the palace for three years but had never seen the emperor's face. She rarely went out except for necessary greetings.
Palace intrigue? Backstabbing? Miscarriage? None of it concerned her.
Xia Luzhu's greatest hobby every day is reading storybooks, looking forward to what to eat that day, and waiting for the grand feasts during festivals! In her spare time, she also enjoys gossiping about palace intrigues.
Unexpectedly, as she ate, she discovered...
What? There are other transmigrators! And even reincarnated ones? Holy crap, I can't believe there's a third transmigrator!
Unfortunately, my cultural level is low, so I can only say "Holy crap" all over the world.
While watching the opera, Xia Luzhu played cards in his spare time. Unexpectedly, his rank rose rapidly while he was idly playing cards.
In the end, how did she become empress?!
Xia Luzhu couldn't help but wonder if she was a lucky koi in her previous life?
Later, the lazy and slacking-off empress lay on the couch reading a newly arrived storybook.
The young emperor, who had just finished approving the memorials, looked like a resentful husband. He embraced her from behind, his hot breath brushing against her ear.
"Qingqing, I beg you, please give me a crown prince."
#Palace intrigue is impossible, just watching the drama unfold and having kids#
Cui Xuejian transmigrated and became a little Baolin.
Several towering mountains stand overhead, while a few kittens stretch out their paws at your feet.
Given this situation, what's the point of palace intrigue? Let's just give up and do nothing!
Cui Xuejian believed that as long as she hid quickly, no demons or monsters could find her!
Ha, he might not be good at palace intrigue, but he's a master at health preservation!
As long as you live long enough, you'll have everything!
Um, but what's wrong with this emperor? Don't come looking for me! I'm never having children again!!!
[Transmigrated into a minor palace concubine, the system lets me watch dramas while I gossip]
Let's expose the true nature of Emperor Qin Mouchen, who loved to eavesdrop.
P.S.: My new book, "I'm in Palace Intrigue, You're Just Watching the Show?", has been released. Welcome to support it! ◝(⁰▿⁰)◜
Empress Wenzhao was a famously "enchanting" concubine, but also the most talented empress. Her life was marked by many changes in reputation and status, but this did not diminish her status or research value.
[System + Child Raising + Intense Competition]
Because she was well cared for at home and had a plump and beautiful figure, Qi Jiao was sold to the palace as a maid after the flood. When she got a little older, she became a maid in the Empress's palace.
In a few years, she will be promoted to become a concubine in the Eastern Palace.
Qi Jiao always adhered to the theory that it's better to live a miserable life than to die a glorious death, and she could survive anywhere. Although she was a concubine, it was still a promotion, wasn't it?
However, this crown prince seems a bit difficult to serve.
"Aren't you that chubby girl in the Empress Dowager's palace?"
Qi Jiao, who had originally planned to make a good impression on the Crown Prince during their first meeting as a concubine, had a stiff face.
Is this the impression she's given the Crown Prince all these years? Shouldn't she be a lively and pretty little white rabbit?
Qi Jiao's life in the harem was not as terrible as she had imagined, nor was it to the point of life and death.
When you reach the highest point and look back, you realize that the hardest thing was still studying.
But as he continued learning, he rose to a position second only to the emperor, proving that learning truly can change one's destiny.
The grown-up children wholeheartedly agreed with this statement, their eyes brimming with ambition: to expand their territories, to become the ruler of a prosperous era, and to possess extraordinary talent...
There was no way around it; my mother was just too stubborn, how could they fall behind?
Qi Jiao pondered, could this system really be inherited?
The female lead only wanted to have a good life.
The Crown Prince felt guilty every day, always feeling that he had wronged his little fox.
Early on, the emperor didn't exclusively favor one woman; it was a different kind of harem.
[Villain + Ruthless and decisive + Unrivaled background + Incredible talent + Prodigy competition + Double pupils + Supreme bone + Chaotic body + Imperial prince.]
Ji Xiaoyao travels through three thousand provinces and becomes the imperial son of the Ji family.
The game starts with the awakening of the Destiny Villain System, and rewards players with double pupils, supreme bones, and ultimate imperial weapons through daily sign-in.
As the saying goes, double pupils are an invincible path, and having more bones makes the path even more difficult.
The starting hand consists of four twos.
How can we possibly lose?
Not only that, but his father, the White-Clad God King, possessed a natural Sun Saint Body, making him invincible among his contemporaries.
My mother was born with the Taiyin Holy Body and was a princess of the Taiyu Immortal Dynasty.
As the fruit of their love, it's not unreasonable for them to start with a chaotic state, right?
All roads lead to Rome, but while others walk, Ji Xiaoyao starts by taking a speedrun rocket.
......
Many years later.
Ji Xiaoyao sat cross-legged on the River of Time, transcending all constraints.
As for the protagonist destined by fate?
It was just fertilizer on my path to growth.

Transmigration into a book + Rebirth in another world + Domestic intrigue followed by palace intrigue + Beautiful and clear-headed female lead + Not a double virginity story
This is Shen Yan's second time transmigrating into a book.
The first time she was disguised as a palace maid, according to the original plot she would eventually become cannon fodder.
But she didn't want to, so she went through many hardships and palace intrigues to rise to the position. She suffered a lot along the way, but she was full of energy and finally became the Empress Dowager as she wished.
When she died peacefully in her sleep, she thought she should return to the modern world, but when she opened her eyes, she was still surrounded by antique buildings.
Hmm? She hasn't gone back yet...
It's that familiar memory-flooding moment again...
This time, she transmigrated into the body of a concubine of the crown prince, but she was tired of this life and just wanted to be a lazy bum to pass the time.
Of course, one still needs to obtain some favor from the prince or the master, after all, it's not easy for a woman in the harem to live without favor.
But gradually, Shen Yan found that her life was deviating from what she had imagined.
And what he possesses seems to be more than just a little bit of favor from his employer?
Some people even tried to bully her.
But she's a champion of palace intrigue, a champion she earned with her own blood and tears. How could she let them bully her?
"Only after you have endured seven layers of solitude can you become a true strongman, and our world is born from this!"
"This is the law of the universe: the strong rule over the weak!"
Beauty is but a fleeting feeling; only truth is eternal, and truth can never be beautiful!
He transmigrates to the Douluo Continent and becomes Xue Qinghe, starting as the King of the Underworld.
In this life, Xue Qinghe, drunk on the lap of a beauty, awakens to wield power over the world!
The history of the late Ming Dynasty was chaotic and complex, and can be described as a history written by a few people with strong personal charisma.
Whether it was rebels like Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, rulers like Chongzhen and Yuan Chonghuan, or traitors like Wu Sangui and Geng Jingzhong, each of them had many stories. It was because of these wonderful stories that the history of the late Ming Dynasty became so grand and turbulent.
To write this period of history well, we must naturally depict vivid characters, regardless of their stance. We stand on the edge of the long river of history and observe from the sidelines; they are merely a ripple in this long river.
To observe the world with a critical eye is what we need to do now, and to observe history with a critical eye is also a pursuit in our lives.
The river of history has flowed to our feet, and we can stand on its banks, ready to embrace our history.
The talented woman and virtuous empress Gu Qingcheng has been reborn.
She refused to repeat the path of glory she had taken in her previous life.
What does it mean to be "well-read and educated, naturally exuding elegance"?
Screw that sophisticated, plain-looking woman with hidden depths.
In this life, she will be a superficial, rotten-hearted, yet beautiful woman!

Gu Qingcheng: Am I beautiful? I traded my intelligence for beauty!
