She was the Empress Dowager, living deep within the palace and occupying the highest position.
In the eyes of others, she was young, yet remarkably capable.
In the eyes of her clan, she was their hope of restoring the former dynasty.
Only she knew how she had gone from an innocent young girl to an Empress Dowager with countless lives on her hands, who treated human life like grass.
They wanted her to take revenge?
Fine. She would give them what they wanted.
She didn't know how she had ended up where she was today. She wanted neither power nor the throne, but people kept using her origins to tell her, "You are the last survivor of the former dynasty. You were born to overthrow the court. You must make the rivers and mountains of Great Xi flow with the blood of the Ning Dynasty." But no one had ever asked if she wanted to bring chaos to the court...
In short, it's the story of an Empress Dowager who went astray in her youth and only went further astray with time.
The female lead is quite old. The author is a champion procrastinator, so enter at your own risk.
Warnings: This is a fictional setting with made-up history. The writing died early, and the logic died even earlier.
