(A female-led story, with no transmigration, no rebirth, and no golden finger.)
At 12, Chu Ning'an was still the willful young lady of the Chu household.
At 15, Chu Ning'an was the most celebrated courtesan in the land.
At 19, Chu Ning'an was the fearsome “Jade-Faced General.”
In a time of chaos, without a country, how can there be a home?
With corpses strewn across the land and the weak preyed upon by the strong, Chu Ning'an finally understood that a foolish ruler was the root of chaos. So she raised an army and trained her troops.
After enduring life-and-death trials and hardship, she ultimately found love and forged a legendary life for herself as an empress.
Who says a merchant's daughter can't mourn the fall of her country?
Reclaim lost territory, build a kingdom, unite the land, and conquer the frontier.
From then on, moonlight stretched across thousands of miles, and the country flourished in peace.
This is a female-led story. If you don't like that, don't read it.
I hate stories where the heroine fights palace and household intrigues only to end up as empress.
After fighting your way to the very end, why settle for being empress?
You might as well become the sovereign yourself!
