Abandoned on the Famine Escape Route? I'll Seize the World and Become Empress

Explorer Du Qingwu is betrayed by a friend and transmigrates as the second legitimate daughter of a minor official in the Great Li Kingdom. Her mother died young, her father doesn't care for her, and her grandmother doesn't love her. On the run, her stepmother and father abandon her and her two siblings to the refugees out of spite.

Fine, you dumped me among the refugees to vent your anger? Then I'll let you experience what it's like to be abused by them!

The Hu people break through the pass, and commoners who flee a hundred miles without travel permits are branded criminals? Then I'll hide in the mountains and scrape by. Surely that's allowed? As she keeps out of sight, a tiny village grows into a great city.

No one dares live in the empty city the Hu people plundered? Thanks for the generous gift of a city. I'm claiming it and ruling it myself!

She cultivates superior crops, builds canals, and launches major infrastructure projects. Everyone envies their lives.

The Emperor travels incognito and stumbles into a paradise on earth. His eyes turn red with envy.

A three-year-old can do arithmetic, and a hundred-year-old can recite poetry? Since when did learning to read become so easy?

This wheat yields a thousand jin per mu? And you use snow-white paper to wipe your butt?

Crystal-clear glass, mirrors that show your reflection, toilets that flush themselves... How in the world did you make all this?

The greedy Emperor waves his hand. “You two sisters are impressive. Come to the palace and stay by my side.”

Du Qingwu: ??? You rotten old dog, are you trying to lose your throne?

After transmigrating, Du Qingwu has only two wishes: first, to give her siblings a good life and get a little revenge along the way; second, to keep exploring the mysteries of this world. She really didn't come here to become an empress!
