    The female protagonist transmigrates into the body of a princess from a previous dynasty, the granddaughter of the empress. After learning her true identity, she rebels and becomes empress. The male protagonist has long loved her and becomes her consort. The story combines political intrigue, infrastructure development, and palace intrigue. The female protagonist possesses exceptional martial arts skills, while the male protagonist is cunning and ruthless. It's a plot-driven, slow-burn novel.

    This is a business romance novel where the female lead is consistently more powerful than the male lead in the later stages. While the male lead is not weak either, he willingly lets the female lead lead him by the nose. You need to be patient with the female lead being relatively weak in the early stages, as she goes through a growth phase.
