After Hearing Her Eating Melons, the Court Went Wild
Fang Lingchu was just an ordinary office worker, heading home after work with her design plans still in hand, until she blinked and found herself in the middle of an ancient imperial drama.
Bound to a strange system, all her stray thoughts and "melon-eating" commentary now spill directly into the minds of everyone around her.
-----
Fang Lingchu: [Your Majesty, don't waste time in court. Your concubine and your own mother are plotting to kill you. Once you're gone, the throne belongs to someone else.]
Emperor Chongde: ...Kill them all!
Fang Lingchu: [Brother, your future wife is cheating at Qingfeng Baiyu Tower right now. If you marry her, disaster will ruin our entire family.]
Fang Lingxing: ...This engagement is canceled!
Fang Lingchu: [Prime Minister Su, take a better look at your children. All that talent, yet every single one dies tragically. Tsk, tsk-what a pity.]
Prime Minister Su: (sobbing) "Your Majesty, please grant me justice!"
Fang Lingchu: [Oh? Didn't expect General Han to be that amazing~]
Onlookers: Eating melons (gossip) from Fang Lingchu is truly the best!
General Han: "No, wait! It's not what it looks like!"
------
At first, the entire court opposed a woman stepping into officialdom. Yet somehow, Fang Lingchu keeps "predicting disasters," uncovering scandals, and exposing conspiracies.
...And before anyone realizes it, this little melon-eating official has risen higher and higher in rank, while all of court is left in chaos.
