With a billion dollars bounty on Ning Lou's head, she was the most notorious criminal pursued by federal agents who swindled her way throughout the four continents. Living as an anonymous magnate in a inconspicuous villa, she was at the peak of her life. But who would have thought a trip on the bathroom ended it just like that. The illogical part was, she transmigrated in the body of an unfavoured empress and in an era unknown in history. Caught in a web of heinous schemes inside the Imperial Harem, she must swindle her way for survival, while maintaining her distance from the so called 'Emperor'. However, this man was harder to trick than the old Buddhist monk. "Your Highness, the emperor sealed and barricaded all the secret passages!" "Your Highness, the emperor has replaced the eunuchs and maids!" "Your Highness, all the concubines suddenly fell ill and the emperor said Your Highness will serve him tonight." "Your Highness, the Phoenix Cloud Pavilion caught fire so the emperor proposed to sleep together tonight." "Your Highness, where are you heading to?" "Don't stop me, I'll swindle my way to be the Emperor instead!" Important Notice: All rights reserved. This is an original Story.
