Empress' Promotion

Song Zhiyi, twenty-five years old, in the late stage of social crisis, unemployed and aging, the greatest achievement in life is to pay off Huabei. One day while watching Wu Zetian's TV series in a rented house, my eyes went dark - I was wearing it. When she opened her eyes again, she became a fourteen-year-old Wu Meiniang. The system coldly informed her: Please complete the sixty-eight-year journey from talent to queen, without missing a day. If you die in the middle, you are really dead. It starts with a broken courtyard, two snobbish palace ladies, a ruler, and an emperor who treats her like nothing. She knelt on the gravel to practice prostrations. Her hands were swollen by the ruler but she didn't cry. Her knees were broken and she didn't cry. She could only look at the young face in the bronze mirror in the middle of the night and her tears couldn't stop flowing. Fortunately, the system occasionally gave out benefits: photographic memory cards, crisis warnings, and body-building pills... Relying on these plug-ins, she started from the dilapidated room in Shuyu Pavilion and moved forward step by step. In the desperate situation of Ganye Temple, she made a thrilling comeback with "Tang Lv Shu Yi"; in the battle for the throne, she played a modern public opinion war; in the tug-of-war between the two saints, she stripped the Guanlong Group clean. The courtiers all said that Empress Wu had a deep mind and ruthless methods, and was a born politician. No one knew that the woman on the dragon throne would hold the copper basin and vomit for half an hour every time she returned to the palace after issuing a murder order. Sixty-eight years. She went from fear to numbness, from numbness to calmness, from calmness to the true imperial power. It was so long that she almost forgot that her original name was Song Zhiyi. Until that day, the system suddenly said something. "Ding - congratulations to the host, the mission progress is 99%. The final level is about to be unlocked: abdication." She was sitting on the dragon chair, overlooking the civil and military officials kneeling in the hall, and suddenly she didn't know where to go. A socially fearful girl who didn't even dare to take takeout in person, spent sixty-eight years becoming the most hard-core woman in Chinese history. But when she can finally go home, will she still be the same Song Zhiyi? Can Song Zhiyi still go back? Intention: intention: This is a story about the "price of growth". The core idea is to explore: To what extent can a person rewrite himself in order to survive? After the rewrite, is she still the same person? Song Zhiyi traveled through time and became Wu Zetian, not to fall in love or engage in Machiavellian writing, but to be forced into a path of no return by a ruthless system. Each of her "growths" - from social fear to murderous decision-making, from fear to numbness to calmness - were obtained at a bloody price. The story asks: When she finally reaches the pinnacle of power sixty-eight years later, completes the system's tasks, and can go home - can the girl who ate takeout and watched dramas in a rental house in Shanghai still go back? The sub-line ideas also include: the collision between modern values ​​​​and the ancient power system (how a modern soul deconstructs the rules of the feudal dynasty in an alternative way), the survival path of women in the absolute patriarchal system, and the alienation process of the identity of "emperor" from the essence of human nature. In the final analysis, this is not a story about "becoming stronger", but a story about "after being forced to become stronger, you can never be a mortal again".
