Cheng He Titong

Wang Cuihua wakes inside a palace-intrigue novel as Yu Wanyin, a villainous concubine headed for a terrible fate. Because she knows stories like this inside out, she plans to ally with Emperor Xia Houdan to survive, only to discover an even stranger truth: he is also a modern person transported into the book. Yu would rather cooperate than play through endless court schemes, but the original heroine refuses to step away from the conflict. With drought, political rivalry, and assassination plots closing in, staying alive proves much harder than simply knowing how these stories usually work.
