The Way of the Empress

Rong Qinglin had been empress for two years, and was nearly going stir-crazy.

Then, that winter, her emperor husband celebrated his twentieth birthday,

and the Prince of Dai and his wife from Datong Prefecture were summoned to court...

The empress, inspired by the virtuous, decided that from now on, she would live differently.

The way she wanted to.
