Corporate Slave Empress Dowager: I Just Wanna Retire

share time: 2025-12-12 12:33:47

Lin Xiaoman, a modern 996 corporate slave, dies from overworking on a project and wakes up as the Empress Dowager of the Great Jing Dynasty—her "son" the emperor is a rebellious 15-year-old, imperial concubines stir up daily schemes, and the prime minister holds absolute power. Determined to lie flat and retire, she accidentally uses modern workplace skills to "fix" the palace: assigning concubines to a "harem charity project" to distract them, setting "state affairs KPIs" for the emperor to curb his rebellion, and creating "performance reviews" for the prime minister to削弱 his authority. But twists come fast: the rebellious emperor is faking it to protect her, the cold imperial bodyguard who helps her is a hidden guard left by the late emperor (and secretly loves her), and the prime minister’s rebellion hides the mystery of the late emperor’s death. Forced to go from a "slacking empress dowager" to a "badass one," she uses corporate wisdom to fight the prime minister, uncovers the truth with the bodyguard’s help, and finally secures the kingdom and finds love. Turns out, "retiring" isn’t about lying flat—it’s about shining as your own light.
