[All Things' Thoughts + no romance + historical setting + palace intrigue + political schemes + strong heroine]
As Empress Dowager, Jiang Qingyuan was perfectly content with everything she had.
The late emperor had died young, the emperor was still a child, the empress was obedient, and the Noble Consort was sweet-tongued.
She held all the power herself, ruled from behind the curtain, and had the people's support.
Apart from her rebellious daughter, her life was practically perfect.
The emperor was growing up, the empress was pregnant, and all was orderly throughout the Great Qian Empire.
Jiang Qingyuan was planning to gradually relinquish power, retire from government, dote on her grandchildren, and devote herself to prayer and Buddhist scriptures.
Who could have guessed that the moment she brought up stepping down, someone would try to kill her!
First, poison in her tea. Then, a Buddha statue toppled over. Then, a snake was smuggled into her retreat palace... They came at her from every angle.
If she hadn't been able to see what all things were thinking, she'd have been dead already.
Jiang Qingyuan was furious. She just wanted to retire and enjoy herself. Why was that so hard?
If they wouldn't let her live in peace, then nobody would get to live in peace!
It gets better and better as you go to the back. Unfortunately, the pace at the beginning is not very good. It is obviously a fun novel, but it is a bit frustrating and will scare readers away. However, the second half of the book has made great progress. It is not the kind of book where the heroine actually loves the man. The female protagonist also has a distinct personality and a growth line. I look forward to the author's next book.
Very nice! The setting is also very interesting!! Get popular quickly
For the sake of the subject matter, give me some encouragement.
I've seen more than half of it now. It's very beautiful... I really like this feeling of silently accumulating strength. Is the author still alive? Can you write a side story? Please
