Ten Years of Seclusion at the Border, Unrivaled from the Start

Ten years ago, Gu Changan transmigrated to the Great Yu Dynasty and became the heir to the Marquis of Guarding the State. From the start, his father died in battle on the southern frontier, and Gu Changan was falsely accused of forming a clique for personal gain. The marquis's military authority was stripped away, and the entire Gu family was banished to the far north, to the city of Yuman. On the very day of their banishment, Princess Changle, Li Anlan, married Gu Changan but chose to divorce him, severing all ties with the Gu family. Ten years later, the late emperor passed away. Princess Changle, Li Anlan, killed the crown prince and ascended the throne, becoming the female emperor of Great Yu. Far away in the northern city of Yuman, Gu Changan woke up to find himself dressed in the imperial robes... “Your Majesty, the feudal lords from across the realm are mustering their troops to attack the capital.” “Your Majesty, Gu Changan has declared himself emperor in Yuman.” “Your Majesty, Gu Changan's army has captured ten cities in succession.” “Your Majesty, Gu Changan personally led his troops and conquered six kingdoms in three months.” “Your Majesty, Gu Changan has killed all the feudal lords across the realm.” The female emperor: “Issue my decree. I want to remarry him. I want to remarry him...” Gu Changan: “You weren't there for me during the ten years I was banished. Now that I'm emperor, who are you? Send word into Great Yu: kill the female emperor.”
