[Empress + Growth + Machiavellian Strategy + Mary Sue]
Shen Qingtang is the most noble eldest princess of the Qi Dynasty. She has the highest honor. When the emperor died, she helped her younger brother ascend the throne, but King Yong's party was eager to help him secure the throne. In order to help him secure the throne, she roped in Jiang Jiaoyuan, a Hanlin Academy scholar who had won three consecutive awards, but unexpectedly got involved in a shocking conspiracy. In the end, her younger brother died, and she was forced to ascend the throne and became the first female emperor of the Qi Dynasty.
Later.
The cold and restrained prime minister knelt on the ground with red eyes and begged her to forgive her: "I know that the princess hates deception, but I have to avenge the family's destruction. I am willing to die at the hands of the princess..."
The ruthless and cruel imperial brother strangled her neck, the paranoia in his eyes was shocking: "Tang'er, look, did he lie to you..."
The legitimate son of the Duke of Guo, who lost his mother when he was young and had never been taken seriously, only wanted to make money and travel all over the world. However, he lost all his wealth for her and was willing to serve as an official in the court.
Trapped in prison, the loyal and humble former prince, as a secret guard, was willing to stay by her side, to be driven and played by her.
PS: The heroine has a heartthrob physique + non-NP + early intelligence with a bit of stupidity.
