[Strategic female emperor × obsessive Saint of Miaojiang + reborn + strong female lead + woman disguises herself as a man + mind-reading + satisfying political intrigue]
As the only daughter of the Qin family, she has to marry into the palace. It is her only choice.
She buries her grand ambitions and hides all her desires, devoting herself to the hope that the land will be at peace and the people will live in harmony.
She thought the Qin family’s lack of an heir was the greatest show of loyalty they could offer the emperor. Then she discovered that the ruler they served was nothing but a tyrant, willing to have the people of two cities massacred to satisfy his selfish desires.
Reborn once more, she no longer cares about loyalty between ruler and subject, or the Three Bonds and Five Constants. Her Qin family is done playing by those rules.
From then on, the one who survives is Qin Ziqing, the eldest son of the Qin family.
If the Shang family cannot rule this land well, then the Qin family will take the throne instead.
She schemes at every turn, and if the situation calls for it, she is willing to put herself directly in the game.
Once she has stripped the emperor of his power, she takes her place above the court, honored with the right to enter without announcing her name, without hurrying, and with her sword at her side. Then she declares to the world that she is a woman.
She will bear the name of traitor, and shoulder the fate of the people herself.
