A modern girl transmigrates into a novel and becomes a cannon-fodder empress. All she wants is to play her villainous role well, get banished to the cold palace, and survive by lying low.
On the surface, she is a wicked drama queen; inside, she is constantly roasting everyone in her mind. Unexpectedly, the cunning tyrant emperor can actually hear her inner thoughts.
She desperately tries to court disaster and escape, but he keeps closing in on her, gradually falling for her on his own. He even treats her sarcastic inner monologues as flirtation, spoiling her more and more the harder she acts out.
With hilarious palace power plays, nonstop gossip from everyone around them, and a mutual romance between emperor and empress, this is a sweet, satisfying, and laugh-out-loud court comedy.
