No CP + strong female lead + transmigration (the heroine has spiritual roots, but the author won't let this cheat ability play a major role in this world)
With the workaholic's grit and a cultivator's cheat abilities, she cuts her way through the entire feudal age.
From an exam candidate who worked herself to death to the daughter of a concubine in the imperial harem...
At one, she punished her wet nurse. At two, she manufactured auspicious omens to win favor. At ten, she attended court. At twelve, she became the first female prince in history.
Her emperor father slapped the table. “This girl takes after me!”
The court officials railed, “A hen crowing at dawn means the nation is doomed!”
With ice, fire, and lightning spiritual roots in her left hand, and modern statecraft in her right:
She can burn an enemy nation's provisions with a snap of her fingers, or freeze a thousand miles of waterways without deploying a single cart of soldiers and armor.
She lifts the ban on maritime trade, creates firearms, grants women independent household status, and defeats four nations. The histories call her “a tyrant's methods, a sage's heart.”
“You want me virtuous and demure? I'd rather hold the universe in my hands.”
From an exam candidate who worked herself to death to an iron-fisted founding empress who unites the Four Continents...
She tears up Admonitions for Women and rewrites the history books. With the blood of enemy royalty, she writes The Ice and Fire Ballad, proving that women, too, can be chosen by Heaven.
◆ A hard-core empress's nation-building saga: no lovesick heroine, just endless problems to solve, wars to fight, and enemies to kill.
◆ High-octane action: freezing the court, burning enemy camps, and striking stubborn old ministers with lightning. She physically obliterates anyone who dares defy her.
◆ Palace intrigue with a twist: while the concubines are still fighting over hairpins, the heroine has already led troops into the Golden Hall.
“If the court historian dares write that I am a hen crowing at dawn, I'll make sure there are no more hens for history to crow about.”
The writing is good. This is the third life of the heroine who was tricked into the lower world. The first life is the world of immortality, the second life is modern, and this is the return to the third world of the mortal world. 🤔, is it right to think so?
The writing was quite awkward at first, but the more I read, the better it gets. The plot is reasonable, there is no emotional line, not even the male protagonist. It is purely about career. I love reading it. Please do your best, the author.
Okay, I'm so imaginative, I'm really looking forward to the empress coming to power! Isn't it just the anniversary party? Why has it only been two years?
