Newly Made a Consort, My Father Commands 400,000 Troops, So What Do I Have to Fear?

In Gu Wanwan's third year since being born into this world, her biological father sent her to the imperial palace.

She had thought she was being sent as a hostage, but even the empress's own son couldn't compete with her for affection.

So after Xie Yanchen ascended the throne, he secretly issued an edict making her a consort, crushing her dream of going to the borderlands.

The Gu family commanded an army of four hundred thousand, and Gu Wanwan had been waiting to head north to the frontier. But her hopes were dashed.

The edict naming Gu Wanwan Consort Chen had barely been read when she stormed into Zichen Hall with a knife.

“Xie Yanchen, you little snake! You promised you'd let me go to the frontier. What the hell are you making me a consort for? Revoke that edict right now!”

“Wanwan, you're the anchor that keeps me steady. Without you, the monsters and demons in this palace would eat me alive.”

“Bullshit! You're the emperor. Who dares give you a hard time?”

Gu Wanwan wouldn't listen to his explanation, but the edict had already been issued, and her father even wrote to tell her to go along with it.

Since she couldn't go to the frontier, she had no choice but to start acting unhinged in the palace.

When the Left Chancellor joined forces with other officials to impeach her for overstepping her station, she marched straight to the Noble Consort's palace and beat her into a swollen-faced mess.

“You miserable wretch, you're impeaching me? Why don't you try winning over the emperor and the empress dowager first?”

When the consorts mocked her in the imperial garden for being a general's daughter who knew nothing of court etiquette, she kicked them into the pond to cool off.

“My father commands four hundred thousand troops guarding the border. Even the emperor has to watch his step around me. Who do you think you are?”

“That's right. I really do have to watch my step around Wanwan.”

When an official accused the Gu family of abusing their military power, she went up and slapped him.

“My father is risking his life fighting the enemy at the frontier, and you accuse him of abusing his power with a few words. How about you clean up the filthy mess in your own household first?”

And so that official's family was confiscated and he was exiled.

Xie Yanchen, what would you do without me?
