Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Main Characters: Yu Wanwan, Zhou Jingchuan

(Completed) [Silly fun story + mind-reading + animal speech + cross-dressing + chaotic writing]

Yu Wanwan has transmigrated into a book! While others transmigrate into an emperor’s consort, Yu Wanwan becomes a fake eunuch disguised as a man! And not just any eunuch—she’s a records-keeping eunuch in the Bureau of Internal Affairs, responsible for recording the emperor’s activities with his concubines!

Good news: She can play with beautiful fair-skinned ladies.

Bad news: Her inner thoughts are being overheard by the concubines in the harem! And she’s a spy—her father is planning a rebellion, and her entire family is going to be executed!

Yu Wanwan wanders through the palace every day, smiling on the surface: “Congratulations, Lady Xiao, the emperor has chosen you again.”

But inside, she’s rolling her eyes: [The emperor has athlete’s foot; he better not pass it to my beautiful sister.]

So Lady Xiao claims illness and declines the emperor’s summons.

When the emperor happily grants a title to Noble Consort Shu, Yu Wanwan thinks: [Sister, run! Sixth Prince has sent a team to harm your unborn child!]

Noble Consort Shu refuses the title and moves into the Empress Dowager’s palace.

When Imperial Concubine Xian gets caught cheating, Yu Wanwan thinks: [Great job! The emperor’s illness can’t be hidden much longer.]

When the newly-arrived Consort Hui isn’t favored and becomes overly anxious, Yu Wanwan thinks: [Men only hold back my sister’s path to wealth! Isn’t making big money in the palace more appealing?]

So Consort Hui develops a fragrance that becomes wildly popular in the palace, amassing enough wealth to rival the nation’s treasury. After becoming a rich woman, Consort Hui voluntarily leaves the palace, seeking neither wealth nor power, only wanting to be with the eunuch, Yu Wanwan.

The emperor, furious, exclaims, “Am I not better than a eunuch? Drag her out and execute her!”

Imperial Concubine Xian: “If you dare execute her, I’ll rebel with my family.”

Lady Xiao: “I’ll have my father and the civil officials force you to abdicate.”

Prince Zhan: “Harm my Wanwan, and I’ll slaughter the entire world!”

The court officials: “Prince Zhan doesn’t like women because of Eunuch Yu!”

Yu Wanwan is dumbfounded. She was supposed to be a minor character, so how did the plot go so off-course?

I love it so much as I read the first few chapters, so I decided to read the whole new novel via Google translate on a Chinese website. Anyway, the summary did happen except when the emperor ordered to execute her.

It's really funny, her monologue, her humor, her character, she's so funny.

It's a good read when you're looking for something mild, and to pass the time. Just turn off some of your braincells.

Spoiler

Now, for the not-so-good aspect.

1. It wasn't really explained why she got her powers.

2. Her past is mentioned in a passing.

3. Concubines were said to be cunning, and vicious yada yada yada, but when they heard her inner voice, the just accepted it quickly and thought that they can trust MC because they can hear her inner voice. They were easily swayed by the MC, maybe because she flatters them all the time.

4. Climax: It's not about the emperor's schemes vs. the harem anymore. MC stated that there's going to be a rebellion from her fake dad, and although it happened, Japan became the antagonist.

Remember, China suffered from the Japanese army way way back in history, and that contributed into Japan being treated here as an antagonist. You can read between the lines on how the author inserted her 'hate' towards the Japanese by placing them on the evil side, and the MC, ML, concubines feeling this 'hatred' over them.

I mean, if in the original text, there will be a rebellion, why must you insert the Japanese army? That's just so random.

5. Xiao Han, the yandere. His character is pretty fun and appeals so cliche. He has potential to develop more, but the author just decided to make him a traitor that sided with JP to have the MC.

MC's original dad is somewhat involved in prophesying that the eldest prince will die, he was the previous emperor of a dynasty who was using a human skin. MC helped the prince to sleep, and it was actually her dad who made him like that.... But no mention of that prince again, like it would be a complicated relationship between them. And it was pushed aside.

6. Medicine.... I don't know where to start... But this part is really when you needed to turn off your braincells. Maybe it's the MTL... But it's just shit, so sh*t that it's funny.

7. As the novel reached the end, it's just so chaotic. The ML's poison reacted, Dr. Qin is his dad, the blood transfusion....

8. The end was so rushed... It ended when MC was running away with the concubine, and the ML chasing her down even to the ends of the earth.

The big problem I find with these mind reading stories is that the main characters are very annoying and one note because their biggest use in the plot is to convey important information to the other characters. It's bearable if this is this first of its kind you have ever read but it gets old fast. There are a few that don't fit the description before but this isn't one of them. How much you like the story will have a lot to do with how much you like the... more>> other characters. <<less
