So-and-so transmigrated and became the daughter of an ordinary minor official in Chang'an, the capital of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. She takes it all in stride. Sure, there's no toilet paper or Wi-Fi, but she can't go back anyway. The land is peaceful, the rules of propriety aren't too strict, and life is pretty good. Until her younger cousin loses both parents and comes to live with them. Her cousin's given name is Yuhuan, and their family name is Yang. Excuse me? Even if I haven't read much, I know about the An Lushan Rebellion! Their peaceful days are numbered, and So-and-so has no choice but to plan for the future, hoping only to keep her whole family safe when everything collapses. But will things really go as she hopes? In Chang'an in those days, noble ladies went on spring outings and hosted summer banquets, while aristocratic young men rode by on horseback with flowers in their hair, handsome and charming. Yet one of them bent down and held out his hand to the girl who had grown round as a ball. "My lady, would you care to ride with me?"
"...I'm afraid I'll crush your horse."
