The Princess Who Guarded the Realm

When her feeble-minded elder brother ascended the throne, she became the Holy Venerable's Princess Who Guards the State. Five years of painstaking effort brought about a flourishing and enlightened age, yet he alone looked down on her, treating all her achievements as worthless. A political marriage bound them together, and they weathered one storm after another, going from cold indifference to mutual understanding, only to fall victim to someone else's divisive schemes. Powerful ministers at court eyed her throne hungrily, while foreign states beyond the borders stirred with ill intent. Watch as she turns the tide, claims her place upon the Nine-Phoenix Throne, and wins the man of her dreams.
