The Empress Dowager Feng Rong was poisoned to death in the palace by the emperor who was extremely filial to her. She was 36 years old.
I was reborn when I first became the Queen Mother.
In this life, she will never be confused by family affection again. She will hold the power in hand and attend the court in person.
She ruled with an iron fist so that her power was stable, but the emperor grew up.
She retreated in order to advance, pretending to return the power, but in fact she returned to the harem to choose the next emperor. After choosing her target, she used her smile and kindness to force the emperor to issue an imperial edict for the throne at a young age.
When another little emperor came to the throne, she once again came to the court to handle politics.
This time, her foundation was solidified, she carried out drastic Chinese reforms, and ushered in a peaceful and prosperous era for the Wei Dynasty.

"Queen Wencheng Wenming's Feng family was a native of Xindu, Changle. ... By the time she was fourteen, Emperor Gaozong considered her a noble person and was later appointed as the queen. Emperor Xianwen ascended the throne and was honored as the empress dowager. Prime Minister Yi Hun conspired to rebel. In the twelfth year of the emperor's reign, she lived in the dark. The empress dowager made a secret plan to punish Hun, and then came to the court to take charge of the government." - Li Yanshou of the Tang Dynasty, "Northern History, Volume 13, Biography, No. 1, Concubine 1"

"Since the Queen Mother came to the dictatorship of the court, Gaozu was elegant and filial, and did not want to participate in decisions. All matters were reported to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother was very wise, guessing and forbearing, and was able to do great things. She rewarded and punished life and death, and many of them had nothing to do with Gaozu. This combination of power and blessing shocked the inside and outside." - "Book of Wei: Biography of the Queen" collected by Wei Dynasty in the Northern Wei Dynasty

There is currently no record of Empress Dowager Feng's real name in historical documents. The name "Rong" comes from her elder brother (or possibly younger brother) Feng Xi, and the word "Xixi Rongrong" is also used.
Most of the characters appearing in this article are people who appear in documents recording the history of the Queen Mother Feng period.
Some institutional things didn't even exist at that time, but they existed in the article, and everything was needed for creation.

In history, the Empress Dowager Feng directly fought all the way to the Empress Dowager, and was never killed by her son. The rebirth setting feels like it lowers the level of Empress Dowager Feng.
