Someone robbed the imperial court of food and grass and wanted the Northern Xinjiang army to die. Someone sent spies to watch her every move and wanted the entire Lin family to be destroyed. The piece of jade with the words engraved on it, the "top" hidden in the dark, the words that her grandfather dipped in porridge and wrote on the table and then erased - she didn't know until the day she arrived in Chang'an that this battle had just begun. Machiavellian strategy + revenge + female growth, the heroine's IQ is online and she only relies on the gun in her hand and the calculation in her head.

Reader note
"Desire to the Nine Heavens" - an imperial epic intertwined with intrigue and tenderness. "The boy who ran away from home at the age of sixteen eventually became the emperor of the Nine Heavens." When Qi Ming was sixteen years old, his parents left him behind when they fled Tianque City, and he has not seen his relatives for eight years. He once walked alone in the snowy night, struggled in the intrigues, and was tempered in the blood and fire - from a street boy to a general, from an exile to the founding monarch, he stepped on the thorns and climbed to the pinnacle of power step by step. "Xiao Lin said: I want to conquer this world with my own hands." "Qi Ming replied: I want the people to take over this world with a smile." Two completely different imperial paths: one kills decisively and builds a dynasty with iron and blood; the other overcomes hardness with softness and builds the Qingyun Ladder with the hearts of the people. When the two heroes confront each other, under the Nine Heavens, will it be the tears of the common people or the light of the prosperous age? "If you want to reach the ninth level of the sky, the common people have only one difficult step after another." "Slowly walking up the stairs, don't be afraid of the long road in the mountains." - Tomato's top-level work on Machiavellian ancient sayings. Over a span of more than ten years, the shocking growth from a boy to a generation of wise kings. A high-burning battle line + dynasty entrepreneurship + high IQ tactics, no mistakes in the whole process. "This is not a counterattack of one person, but the rebirth of an era."

I dug up two treasures of Machiavellian court literature! In "Jin Yan Miao", the heroine uses the boudoir as a chessboard and the palace as a battlefield. She uses modern thinking to play with ancient power strategies, taking every step to make people's palms sweat. "Master Bao" uses the solved case as a guide to reveal the power game in the Northern Song Dynasty court. The protagonist outsmarts the group of officials, showing the treacherousness of the court's intrigues. This is the real Machiavellian palace literature!
