Reborn as Empress: I Build the Great Sui Dynasty
In her previous life, Dugu Manduo was full of schemes and ambition, but she was defeated in the whirlpool of court politics. She watched helplessly as the Sui Dynasty fell into internal turmoil and external crisis, spiraled into decline, and finally died with regrets.
When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the innocent days when she had first entered the palace. The regret and resentment of her past life became a burning determination. This time, she would no longer be a pawn at someone else’s mercy. She would be the player who rewrote her own fate.
At court, powerful ministers held sway, and undercurrents stirred among the various factions. Drawing on her memories of her previous life, Manduo skillfully navigated the ranks of officials, supporting the loyal and punishing the treacherous to eliminate threats to the Sui Dynasty. With the Turks eyeing the realm hungrily, she devised strategies and helped Yang Jian secure the borders, making the Sui cavalry feared far and wide.
But the road ahead was full of thorns. Plots by old enemies followed her like shadows, and new challenges came one after another. Yet with her extraordinary intelligence and unyielding will, Manduo overcame every crisis. With her help, Yang Jian built the Great Sui Dynasty, and she once again ascended to the throne as Empress, becoming a model to all women and an indispensable legend of the Sui Dynasty.
