A Concubine’s Competitive Life in the Prince’s Household
A Concubine’s Competitive Life in the Prince’s Household
【Time Travel + Workplace Competition + No Lazing Around + Ambitious Female Lead】
Overachiever Shen Wei traveled through time and found herself as the lowest-ranking maid in the grand residence of the Yan Prince.
The Yan Prince held a prestigious position, but his consorts were all content to live dull lives. The noble-born princess consort was as tranquil as a chrysanthemum; the concubine sought a life of monogamy; the reincarnated woman was utterly disillusioned with the Yan Prince and had given up on striving for anything; and the other timid concubines dared not make a move...
The queen of workplace competition, Shen Wei, declared: Don't stop me! I'm going to outwork these unambitious slackers!
...
The Yan Prince had grown accustomed to the stagnant atmosphere in his harem, until a particularly skilled courtesan appeared.
This concubine was stunningly beautiful, adept at both literature and dance, hardworking, and always brought him fresh excitement. The Prince couldn't help but take a second, then a lifetime-long, look at her.
Years later, Shen Wei became the all-powerful Imperial Noble Consort, with children and the emperor's exclusive favor.
Meanwhile, the princess consort remained as tranquil as ever; the concubine was aging and had yet to experience a monogamous life; and the reincarnated woman was still eating simple meals in her modest abode...
After half a lifetime of striving, Shen Wei finally reached retirement and revealed her true nature, fully embracing a life of leisure. The retired emperor interjected: "You competed for favor just to retire?"
Shen Wei snacked on melon seeds: "What else?"
Living is all about retirement!
The retired emperor was even more surprised to find, in midlife, that other men were vying for his wife's affections!
