The emperor & the general, their love does not know where it started, but it goes deeper and deeper. The two fell in love when they were young and protected each other. Although there is a bit of a misunderstanding, it is to protect the general. He is afraid that the general will know how his father died, and he is also afraid that people with ulterior motives will hurt him. The emperor's love is forbearing and restrained, while the general's love is bold and direct. The ending is perfect, running in both directions [laughing evilly][laughing evilly][laughing evilly]

Reader note

This book is very consistent, it is a plot + hegemony type. The biggest advantage of this book is that it does not overwhelm other characters in order to highlight the protagonist. The other princes are also very capable, and there are basically no brainless supporting characters or outrageous wit. Step by step, the heroine relies on the memory of another world (strictly speaking, the heroine does not travel, this is the author's foreshadowing) and her own abilities to dominate in troubled times. She turns from the daughter of a county magistrate to a puppet governor, then defeats King Lu and King Chang and becomes a king with a different surname. Currently, the heroine is conquering other princes.

"I, Gu Nianyu, am the eldest daughter of the late emperor. She guards the territory and protects the mountains and rivers. It is up to me to take on the throne!" The heroine is a monarch who cares about the world when facing the people, but she is very ruthless when facing corrupt officials and contenders for the throne. I have never seen a book where the heroine secretly plots against her brother-in-law! This is the real heirloom! In ancient times, wasn't it true that fathers, sons, and brothers all settled the score in order to seize the rightful son?

Li Moxuan clenched the rag tightly, gritted his teeth, and stood up slowly. "Brother, what should we do now?" Li Qingyao asked in a low voice. "Go to Laojun Mountain." Li Moxuan said in a deep voice, "But before we go, we have to find Ashina Yun first, and then..." Before he could finish his words, footsteps suddenly came from the exit at the other end of the stone room. Very light, yet dense. More than one person. Li Moxuan felt a chill in his heart, and immediately pulled Li Qingyao up and hid behind a collapsed stone pillar. As soon as they were hidden, a dozen people poured in from the exit. They were all killers in black, with their faces covered and holding poison-quenched short blades in their hands. The leader was a one-eyed man with a black cloth covering his left eye - it was the Shadow Pavilion killer who chased Li Moxuan at Qingfengguan last night. "Search!" The one-eyed killer said sternly: "Mr. Bai said that the brother and sister may be here. They want to see people alive, and they want to see their bodies if they die!" The killers immediately dispersed and searched in the stone room. Li Moxuan held his breath and held Li Qingyao's hand tightly. She could feel her sister's hands shaking.
