#Transmigrated as a Palace Maid?! Help, ASAP! —Don’t worry, cling to the Empress’ thigh! #What flirting skills are needed to woo the Empress?# —Details inside. #Golden finger skill not unlocked, I wanna explode.# —36 stratagems for palace survival, the brain is the key. Brain not enough? Tough! #How a Palace Veteran is Forged# This story is about the palace veteran and the Empress’ affairs. Qing Dynasty transmigration. Also known as The Empress Strategy or Being Strategized by the Empress 233333333333 [Serious Synopsis] Draft History of Qing·Shunzhi records: In the tenth year of Shunzhi’s reign, August, the Empress was deposed. Empress Xiaohuizhang of the Qing Shizu, of the Borjigit clan, was betrothed as a consort in the eleventh year of Shunzhi’s reign, May, and enthroned as Empress in June. At the age of thirteen, she was historically referred to as the younger Borjigit Empress Xiaohuizhang. History records this successor Empress as "wooden, with nothing to say," utterly failing to win Shunzhi’s favor. Though she held the title of head of the harem, she wielded no real power—harem affairs were fully controlled by Imperial Noble Consort Donggo under the pretext of "assistance." The young Empress was regarded by Emperor Shunzhi as a thorn in his side, and he sought nothing more than to depose her. Her greatest role was to accompany Emperor Shunzhi and Consort Donggo in staging a legendary imperial romance. The depths of the palace have always been a burial ground for beauties, and among them, the newly appointed successor Empress, the younger Borjigit, bore the brunt of Shunzhi’s persecution. She was his lawful wife, yet she was the foremost to endure his disgust, disdain, and relentless torment. The person Emperor Shunzhi wronged most in his life was not the Consort Donggo, whom he never forgot even in death, but the little Empress who repulsed him at first sight—Borjigit Sule.

But He's Beautiful
But He's Beautiful
Bai Gu Sheng
Jingzhe is a eunuch—a fake one, that is. It’s a secret. But an even more troublesome secret is that he’s gotten involved with a palace guard. This guard is stunningly beautiful—and hot-tempered. Of course, there’s a reason for their entanglement. Jingzhe had the misfortune of being saddled with a strange system that assigned him a series of impossible tasks. Even worse? Failure comes with punishment! And worse still? The first time he failed, there was another poor soul caught up in the mess with him! Though… this “poor soul” happens to be quite good-looking. A shame about the temper, really. Absolutely terrible. * Jingzhe isn’t sure if he’s lost his mind or is just sick, but somehow, he’s landed himself in this mess. Maybe because the guy’s handsome. Too damn pretty. When Jingzhe is dragged from the cold palace and forced to his knees, blood soaks into his clothes. Someone steps through the thick, sticky red, hauls him up, and tilts his face upward— The emperor, who looks identical to that beautiful guard, stares down at him expressionlessly. A bloodied hand caresses his cheek. “Afraid?” The man leans in, sniffing Jingzhe’s neck, the cold, damp breath making him shiver. “Didn’t you say you liked me?” Jingzhe regrets everything. If only he’d known, if only he’d— Friend: “If only you hadn’t fooled around?” Jingzhe: “…But he’s so pretty!” Friend: “You’re hopeless.”

Forced to Be a Consort
Forced to Be a Consort
Lin Cuo
The emperor, elevated above all, speaks with ultimate authority. Even as a female sovereign, her word is absolute. When the emperor disapproved of Gu Yuan's writings, he was left to wander the streets. When the emperor demanded Gu Yuan serve in the palace, he had no choice but to pour her tea and water. When the emperor commanded him to share her bed, Gu Yuan struggled, yet in the end, resigned himself to fate. A melodramatic, lighthearted tale.

I’m Destined to Steal the Harem
I’m Destined to Steal the Harem
You Kun
Wei Ying arrives in the palace with a *harem intrigue system*, aiming to become the most unforgettable presence in the emperor's heart. But the emperor already has a long-lost white moonlight in his heart, so she shifts her focus to the emperor's harem instead. The Virtuous Consort is gentle and refined, fond of reading folktales. She snuggles under the covers with the Virtuous Consort to sneak-read storybooks. The Noble Consort is fiery and alluring, obsessed with martial arts. She races across the grasslands with the Noble Consort, bow in hand, for a hunt. The Empress is dignified and distant, ruling over the imperial harem. She makes the Empress laugh so hard she tumbles into her arms, thanks to her impeccable mimicry skills. Thus: Virtuous Consort: *"Come to my palace today, sister—I made your favorite apricot blossom pudding."* Noble Consort: *"Yingying, let’s go horseback riding together!"* Empress: *"The plum blossoms in the rear garden are in full bloom—want to see them, Yingying?"* The system freaks out: *"This is supposed to be a serious harem drama! Why are their favorability ratings skyrocketing?!"* Wei Ying: *"Isn’t harem intrigue all about making the imperial concubines scheme for* me*? Steal the dog emperor’s harem, and he’ll never forget me!"* System: *"You’re outrageous."* —— When Yun Shao was still powerless, she fell in love with someone. That person was her midnight moon—and the cinnabar mark on her heart. Six years after losing her beloved, the once-weak little emperor has grown into a tyrannical ruler—who finally reunites with her long-lost white moonlight. Then, she discovers… *the moonlight has turned pitch-black?* Wei Ying admires flowers and the moon with the Empress, gallops freely with the Noble Consort, and gambles over tea and poetry with the Virtuous Consort—but refuses to spare the emperor even a glance. Seething with jealousy, the emperor corners the girl and growls: *"Stole my harem? Then compensate me with yourself—how about that?"* The girl spits back defiantly: *"Pah! I like women!"* Yun Shao removes her golden crown, ink-black hair cascading down, her delicate features etched with tender longing: *"Had I known your preference, I wouldn’t have restrained myself for so long."* Her voice trembles: *"Don’t abandon me again, Yingying."*

Life and death are in your hands—you can turn over anyone’s tablet for the night, and put anyone to death as you please.On the Consort Route, you start as the lowest-ranking male concubine. Whether you stay out of contention and live quietly in a corner, or cut down all rivals and monopolize imperial favor, it all depends on your choices.In both routes, the number-one villain is the high-ranking NPC Lu Xuechao. On the Emperor Route, if you do not favor him exclusively, he will commit regicide. On the Consort Route, the emperor favors only him in the early game. Therefore, Emperor Route players have him thrown into the cold palace and executed at the start, while Consort Route players scheme in every way to bring him down and kill him.However, one day, the controlled game emperor suddenly develops self-awareness.Consort Route players are astonished to discover that no matter how they scheme to frame him, or how many times they reload their saves, the emperor firmly favors only Lu Xuechao and pays no attention at all to the consort controlled by the player.Emperor Route players break down even more—the game options simply disappear! They can only watch helplessly as the emperor runs to Lu Xuechao again and again, and casually sends all three thousand beauties out of the palace one by one.Gong’s POV synopsis:One day, the gong suddenly realizes that he is the emperor in a danmei harem game and also the game’s protagonist. Whomever he wants to bestow titles upon and whomever he wants to favor is all being manipulated by someone else.
