There are just too many hurdles! I´ve done it once and even included sources, but it seems they haven´t been the right ones. As I am not a native speeker and don´t have the time to "chase" after the correct sources and compile the required information, I post the information and links I come across in the comment section. One day there will be a dedicated MDL page created for sure and my posts will be obsolete. But until then, my post might be of help for everybody who might be interested.

Synopsis: A modern obstetrician transmigrates to ancient times after a car accident, becoming the Empress. The original owner was a noblewoman from a marquis's family, but due to her family's lack of real power and her own low intelligence, her scheming always backfired, displeasing the Empress Dowager and the Emperor. She lost her power to manage the harem and died of illness in the snow. Therefore, the female protagonist, Jiang Wantang, simply lay low on her first day in the transmigration. She believed that as long as she didn't commit any crimes, she could retain her position as Empress. Thus, she no longer participated in the harem struggles, and she didn't interfere with the male protagonist, Mu Xuanqing's, bedchamber visits; the Emperor could go wherever he wanted. Jiang Wantang's magnanimous attitude made Mu Xuanqing uncomfortable. However, Jiang Wantang was someone who didn't actively target others, but also wouldn't sit idly by and let others scheme against her. Knowing that the concubines' struggles were all about vying for favor and securing their positions, she cleverly created opportunities for them to bear children, resulting in a large number of offspring in the harem. She gradually turned the tide, transforming herself from being universally disliked to being respected by all. During this process, Mu Xuanqing developed genuine feelings for Jiang Wantang, reinstating her as the head of the harem and appointing her son as the crown prince. Jiang Wantang fell ill and remained unconscious for seven days, at which point Mu Xuanqing realized his own feelings for her. Upon waking, Jiang Wantang asked Mu Xuanqing to stop having children with other women, which he agreed to, and the two lived a relatively fulfilling life.

Mu Xuanqing fell for her, restoring her to control the harem and making her son the crown prince. After recovering from an illness, she persuaded the emperor to stop having children with other women, and the two achieved a happy ending.
