She was once a top student on Blue Star. Then, in an instant, she transmigrated and became the only daughter of Great Xia’s sole noble with a different surname.
Youzhou was barren? She opened trade routes, built schools, and introduced land-contracting reforms, ensuring that 300,000 cavalrymen had enough to eat and warm clothes to wear, while keeping the emperor awake at night.
The world laughed that she was a woman unfit to wield power. She turned around and accepted the emperor’s “open plot,” entering alone the Academy of Statecraft, which stood in opposition to the imperial court. There, she faced the proudest scholars, the most treacherous hearts, and the deadliest traps.
But she was determined to recruit scholars as her ministers, turn the martial world into her weapon, and make the realm her chessboard.
As for the Third Prince of Great Chu, known in the martial world as “the most shameless playboy,” he cared more for the martial world than the imperial court. From the first time he saw her, he was always hovering around her.
The ministers waited to see her make a fool of herself, but he sidled up with a grin. “Commandery Princess, you conquer the realm, and I’ll bring the whole martial world to help you. How about it?”
Later, she stood atop the world and looked back on the road she had traveled. The man who had always been a shameless joker put aside all his antics and said softly:
“I told you, you don’t need anyone to protect you. You have me.”
