The Day the Empress Was Crowned, My Corpse Was Hung from the City Gate

In the 1145th year of the Tianyuan calendar, Wu Mingyue ascended the throne and became the first empress in history to rule the realm as a woman.

No one knew that her path to the throne had all begun with one man.

A man the entire Great Zhou Dynasty hated with a vengeance, yet loved beyond reason.

He had once conquered the Six Kingdoms in the south, driven out the Xiongnu in the north, and brought peace to a land torn by chaos.

At the same time, he had persecuted loyal officials and run rampant at court, stopping at nothing to usurp the throne.

Wu Mingyue had narrowly survived the coup and protected the realm of Great Zhou...

On this day of nationwide celebration, she hung the corpse of the one she had once called her "beloved" from the city gate.

But then a transmigrator's notebook revealed the whole truth.
