“One imperial decree brought the entire Shangguan clan to ruin.
An infant bearing a ‘sinful bloodline’ was sent to the palace as a slave.
Her mother said, ‘In this place that devours people, brush and ink are deadlier than blades.’
At fourteen, her poetic talent won the empress’s favor. She was freed from her slave status and became a ‘female chancellor.’
The Shenlong Coup toppled the empress. Kneeling in a pool of blood, she narrowly escaped with her life...
This time, she would be the one moving the pieces, not a pawn!”
