Hegemony for a long time is not exclusive to men; even if she rules the world, she can respect him! The legend of the ancient empress, the confrontation of power and the expansion of the kingdom in the prosperous times, every page is interesting💥

Reader note

I strongly recommend this "Ancient Romance-less Empress", which completely breaks the stereotype that "the heroine's rise must depend on the male protagonist"! The heroine is not the chosen one at the beginning, but with a clear head, ruthless methods and compassionate mind, she works step by step in the male-dominated court - quelling civil strife, appeasing people's livelihood, checking and balancing powerful ministers, and expanding territory. Every step is taken firmly and hard, with no ambiguous pull, no internal friction in love, and all the focus is on the cause of "ruling the country and protecting the people."

To be honest, I was attracted by the cover. It looked like a funny article at first glance, but unexpectedly the text and plot were very smooth, and it was very exciting. The two male protagonists were killed in 5 chapters. It was very enjoyable.

At first, the heroine just wanted to be a salted fish, but she was coerced by the conspiracy of the imperial power. She wanted to kill them step by step, so she could only make calculations step by step. She used her husband's family's reputation in the army and the people to conquer the world, leaving her husband unconscious, and she took charge of the government and became the emperor.
