Synopsis

Liu Ruxu is the Empress Dowager of Great Qi. Ever since the late emperor died, she's been living without a care in the world.

“Let's see any of you dare harm my son! Would you rather I hang myself outside your door, or have my father come knocking with his spear?”

“There's no food for disaster relief? I'll take care of it!”

“Great Jin wants a war? I'll lead my best friend and drive them back!”

“Peace talks? A marriage alliance? The women of Great Qi will never be married off for an alliance!”

With a troublemaking Empress Dowager like this, the ministers are at their wits' end. They can only curse the late emperor for dying too soon!

What can the emperor do? He has to spoil his own mother!

Any Stories About Someone Transmigrating as an Old Lady Who Doesn’t Date? No CP, No CP.

I read stories about transmigrating into an old lady because I want to see someone finally break free of the misery of being oppressed in the name of filial piety. No romance for the protagonist: let her focus on farming or building a career. Could we please stop having people transmigrate into old ladies with sons and grandchildren, only to use all kinds of miraculous pills after transmigrating and then fall in love?
