Slacking Off in the Palace, with Grand Scholars Vying for My Favor
OnGoing
After being framed and banished to the cold palace, Yu Miaohua unexpectedly awakened the memories of a time traveler and bound herself to a palace intrigue system.
Palace Intrigue System: Host, don’t lose heart! As long as you diligently complete the tasks I assign, you’ll be able to punch concubines, kick down the empress, and become a virtuous queen in no time!
Yu Miaohua: Fight what fight? Palace intrigue is terrifying. The cold palace is perfect—quiet surroundings, a private villa, and I can even use the system to read novels and comics. It’s the dream life of a homebody.
However…
[You have completed the task: "Make the Emperor fly into a rage for your sake, punish your uncle, and destroy his noble title." Reward: Cotton seeds.]
[Congratulations on completing the task: "Frame the Noble Consort, resulting in her three-month confinement." Reward: Cement recipe.]
[Congratulations on completing the task: "Go on a date with the Imperial Examination’s Top Scholar." Reward: Corn seeds.]
Yu Miaohua stared at the automatically completed tasks, her face pale with shock.
Something’s wrong. How did these palace intrigue tasks complete themselves? Is the system glitching?
…
One day, the Emperor suddenly discovered that his banished concubine, Yu Miaohua, had bound herself to a palace intrigue system.
He sneered. A palace intrigue system? What kind of demonic trickery is this? She must be sent to a temple for purification.
Until he saw the system’s task rewards.
[Complete the task: "Bump into the Emperor and clear your name." Reward: Champa rice seeds that yield three harvests a season.]
What? Three harvests a season? And drought-resistant? This task must be completed!
This was no demonic trick—it was clearly a blessing from the ancestors!
Devoted solely to the prosperity of the realm, he diligently helped Yu Miaohua with her palace intrigue. Then, he saw a new task.
[How can a palace intrigue heroine not have admirers besides the Emperor? Host, look at that Top Scholar—narrow waist, firm hips, lean in clothes but muscular underneath. Clearly your type!]
Emperor: ???
Was he supposed to actively create opportunities for his own concubine to cheat on him? Such humiliation—
Well, he could endure it. After all, it was a crop suitable for mountainous terrain with a yield of four dan per mu!
Soon, the Emperor realized not only he could see Yu Miaohua’s palace intrigue system—so could the court officials.
The Noble Consort’s father, the Grand Tutor; the Empress’s uncle, the General; Virtuous Consort’s brother, the Marquis…
The entire court worked diligently to help Yu Miaohua with her palace intrigue.
To avoid plagiarism accusations, the premise was conceived on March 4, 2024, and the synopsis was written on November 26, with chat logs from close friends as proof.
