Fighting for Hegemony in Troubled Times: the Lord Is a Woman

At the end of the dynasty, Kyushu was divided, princes were fighting, and the iron law that men were superior to women restricted the women of the world. The Chu family, a scholarly family, was exterminated for hiding secret scrolls from the previous dynasty. The daughter Chu Qinghuang was rescued by her loyal servant. In order to revenge and survive, she cut off her black silk hair, changed her name to "Chu Qing", and entered this troubled chess game dressed as a man. She gathered her old troops and established a foundation in a desperate situation. She met Xie Xuan, a counselor from a poor family, and received his heartfelt assistance. She also met the fierce general Qin Lie and conquered him with his clever strategies. Seizing the city, promoting new policies, and winning the hearts of the people, Chu Qinghuang emerged as a "man" among the princes, but he also faced the crisis of exposing his daughter's body several times. On the occasion of the decisive battle, the identity was finally exposed, and the morale of the army was turbulent. She took off her armor in front of the battle and swore as a woman to "defeat Liuhe and restore peace to the world", which attracted Xie Xuan, Qin Lie and other generals to follow her to the death. Even Yuwen Tuo, the prince of the enemy country who was both an enemy and a friend, was fascinated by his talent. In the end, Chu Qinghuang broke through thousands of years of ethics, unified the world and ascended the throne as emperor, established the imperial examination for women, ushered in a peaceful and prosperous age, and used her strength to change the fate of women who could only live in purdah.
