Hua Cairen
honestly i don't have many impressions of her lol. she tried to copy consort zhou's image which is a "kind and quite ignorant woman." just like how noble imperial concubine yan copied noble consort shu's "holy beauty" image. but her acting looks disgusting instead and the emperor doesn't even remember her. afterwards, there's this swinging event for the harem where the concubines play with the swing and then watching a swing dance together. hua cairen tried to attract the emperor by playing the swing excitedly and asking to be higher and higher, at first the emperor wanted to ask who she is but then he saw zhuang luoyan (who's at that time still a xianrong iirc) sitting alone and not playing because of her injury, the emperor cancelled his action. then after the eunuch announced his arrival, many concubines who played at the swing come to greet him, hua cairen was a little late because she was too "engrossed" in playing swinging and i think it displeased the emperor (since even if he likes ignorant woman like xianrong zhou, but the ignorance can't be seen in public and must follow the etiquette). the emperor approached xianrong zhou and talks to her before they watch the swing dance. it's so beautiful and dangerous that xianrong zhou feels amazed and shout in her heart then told the emperor that the swing dance is really good, right after that, there's really someone who shouted and xianrong zhou turns her head to see who's the stupid woman who just screamed. voila, it's cairen hua. cairen hua looks embarrassed because of her scream and said that she feels worried about the dancer because it looks very dangerous. xianrong zhou answered by saying that since it's her job, then the dancer must've known about all the requirements for dancing so cairen hua's worry is really useless. the emperor expressionlessly asked who's this impolite person (since cairen hua interrupted xianrong zhou's sentence and he doesn't remember cairen hua which means she's an unimportant person). his head eunuch said she's cairen hua and the emperor answered that since she breaks the etiquette, she's unsuitable for the emperor and therefore orders to get her nametag (that's used to choose which woman will attend to him each night) removed forever. her status ended just like that since no nametag = there's no way she'll be favoured by the emperor.

I MTL this novel and yeah, imo it's not as good as TBVW, but I think this is better than ETT. I don't really like the ML, but then again it might help to NOT read this as a romance novel and expect romantic ML to love MC and MC only. I read this because I like the MC and how calm she is about everything. The author's MCs are breath of fresh air compared to most Shojo/Josei MC
Funny thing is, I think the author's BL novel's ML is much more romantic than her BG ML

Unless I misunderstood some slang? These are the sentences that mention her occupation in her previous life.
不过，她穿越的原因…难不成就是公司产品质量有问题，自己作为公关部经理，在媒体前现了身，直面了客户们的怨气，所以自己死前样子凄惨，还穿越到这么坑爹的地方？
and then: 想当初，她们公司奶制品出了问题，面对媒体拷问，她也能处理得漂漂亮亮，那些记者才是真正的牙尖嘴利。
不过，她穿越的原因…难不成就是公司产品质量有问题，自己作为公关部经理，在媒体前现了身，直面了客户们的怨气，所以自己死前样子凄惨，还穿越到这么坑爹的地方？所以她苦逼穿越的原因与祖宗八辈没关系，都是自己造的孽？
Where does it say here that she manages celebrities?

chapters 1-5 spoiler
The protagonist is typical one of the author. Calm, intelligent and distant.
Before transmigrating, she was a PR promoter, and the concubine was an arrogant girl who hadn't served the emperor for a long time. As she made a mistake (I do not know what), she needed to be punished, but since she was rude and everyone hated her, she was mistreated to death.
Soon after transmigrating, the king see her climbing in a tree and in the same day sleeps with him. He didn't ever remeber who she is before this meeting. And then again the next day. Now she has won a title.
