Hustle Queen in the Harem: My Consort Won't Stop Grinding

Jiang Xian, the ultimate corporate overachiever at a top tech company, transmigrated. Before transmigrating, she had just sought help from a doctor for her anxiety: "I feel sick if I don't work overtime for a day, and I can't breathe properly if I take a day off. What should I do?" A friend asked: "Is your illness contagious? Come stay at my company for a while, and spread it around!" After transmigrating, she arrived in the slow-paced harem, where everyone was idle. She was going crazy from the lack of work! So she, without a second thought, started hustling like her life depended on it. * An anonymous concubine: In November, when the snow was heaviest in the Capital, Jiang Daying danced in the Plum Garden every single day! Good heavens, is it necessary to work yourself to death? Vying for favor is not something we, on our measly salary, should worry about. So that same year, Jiang Daying was promoted to the rank of Beauty, while she was still a lowly concubine. * Later, it was rumored that Consort Jiang had a bad relationship with her stepmother. After her stepmother gave birth to a son and came to the palace for an audience, the Lady gifted her a fifteen-character calligraphy piece to be hung over her step-brother's bed—Four thousand three hundred and seventy days until the imperial examination. * When it comes to making her presence known to the boss, Jiang Xian is a professional. Have you ever seen the harem at 3 AM? The concubines wake up at five, she at three: While the concubines were admiring flowers, gazing at the moon, watching plays, and gossiping, she was practicing dancing, singing, and her instruments, meticulously studying the big boss's preferences. Excelling in both professional skills and flattery, Jiang Xian believed that if she continued to roll like this, the boss would surely think of her first for promotions and raises. And the Emperor had seen countless methods of vying for favor. Yet, he truly only remembered Jiang Xian— This woman is so deeply in love with me!

Everyone watched her hit dead ends everywhere, bruised and battered, standing by with cold indifference. Until that snowy night in the deep mountains, she was tricked by others and left to walk alone in the snow, when a man on horseback galloped over, pulled her onto his steed, and wrapped her in his embrace. * The first time they met, she lit a cigarette for him; The next time they met, he said, "Miss Thorne, how much are you planning to spend to buy me?"
