Chang Huan transmigrated into the body of a little princess.
She watched carefully for a while and realized that the palace was quiet. No one was playing courtly power games, and a baby like her didn’t have to put on an act.
So she sprawled out on the bed, ready to lie flat. Babies really did sleep well~
Then one day, Chang Huan was carried in front of her biological father and discovered that he was none other than Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng.
Oh my god, Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng? Chang Huan jolted upright, though she was at death’s door.
What year was she born in, relative to Qin Shi Huang?
If Ying Zheng had already become the First Emperor, didn’t that mean he’d be kicking the bucket in a few years?
And if the First Emperor kicked the bucket, wouldn’t her good life as a princess be over, too?
No, no, no. She had to find a way to keep her long-term meal ticket alive.
“Fath, ” Chang Huan clung to Ying Zheng like a piece of sticky tape, impossible to peel off.
Ying Zheng tried several times and failed. With no other choice, he decided to raise the child himself.
Reader’s Guide:
This is not a strong female lead story or a feminist story. It’s the story of an ordinary heroine working hard to make a life for herself.
Overall, this is a slice-of-life story about doing your best to live well.
There will be lots of interactions. The career plot is woven into the everyday story and is part of “making a life.”
The heroine is pretty lazy. At first, she has no intention of becoming emperor, but she decides to take the throne herself when she realizes her siblings can’t be relied on.
Her First Emperor dad retires at seventy to travel the world. The heroine takes the throne in the finale or an epilogue.
The heroine’s growth takes a long time. Much of the story follows her childhood and teenage years, with relatively little romance. There will be no childbirth plot.
In terms of story time, the First Emperor is the male lead. The heroine has a love interest, but he appears quite late.
The upcoming novel “A Great Qin Woman Soldier’s Rise Through the Ranks” is open for pre-orders.
Xiao Yun woke up hungry in the middle of the night. She had never known hunger could be so miserable.
She was strong and had a big appetite, but ever since she transmigrated, she often didn’t know where her next meal was coming from.
Her state of Zhao had suffered one earthquake and drought after another, then came under attack by the Qin army. The land was soon littered with starving people.
Before long, Zhao could hold out no longer and surrendered to Qin.
Xiao Yun, whose country had suddenly fallen, had no time to mourn Zhao.
She only wanted to fill her stomach and make sure she didn’t become one of the people who starved to death.
She watched her grandmother, nearly blind, earn a pittance by washing clothes for others.
She watched her tiny, scrawny younger brother kneel before passing Qin soldiers for the sake of a bite to eat, letting them make sport of him.
Poverty meant no hope and no dignity.
Xiao Yun was determined to change things.
As luck would have it, the Qin army issued a call for recruits. Anyone who enlisted would receive a daily ration.
Qin had twenty ranks of military merit. Soldiers who distinguished themselves on the battlefield could earn a title, ensuring their families never had to worry about food or clothing again.
Everyone around her said the Qin people would never treat the people of Zhao so well. They were certainly trying to trick them into marching to their deaths.
But Xiao Yun stared at the strange symbols she couldn’t read and boldly took her missing older brother’s name, then entered the Qin military camp…
This is the story of a heroine who starts out as a low-ranking foot soldier and works her way up to the rank of marquis. Her love interest is Fusu.
The upcoming novel “A Great Han Woman Feudal Lord” is open for pre-orders.
In the third year of Emperor Jing’s reign in the Han dynasty, the imperial court established border markets to trade with the Xiongnu.
The Xiongnu were fierce and often raided the borderlands.
Although the “border markets” had been established, business was slow, and all the merchants were waiting to see what would happen.
At some point, a woman called Madam Yao arrived at the border, saying disaster had struck her hometown and she had no choice but to seek a living there.
Madam Yao had deft hands. Her rice balls, steamed buns, and guokui flatbreads were easy to carry and delicious, while the tea she roasted made a fragrant, refreshing brew.
Han people from the borderlands came to buy food from her, and even the Xiongnu occasionally stopped by to patronize her business.
Gradually, Madam Yao’s business grew, until the Xiongnu royal court was purchasing large quantities of tea from her every year.
Her booming success as a merchant finally attracted the attention of the imperial court.
The court official sent to investigate took a good look at Madam Yao, then at the wanted notice in his hand.
Wasn’t this the missing princess, Liu Yao?
Liu Yao’s father was the King of Chu, Liu Wu, who had become a criminal for taking part in the Rebellion of the Seven States. Liu Yao alone had strongly opposed her father’s rebellion, and Emperor Jing had allowed her to retain her title as an imperial princess.
Emperor Jing wanted to bring his distant niece to Chang’an and keep her as a useful figurehead, so that if necessary, he could send her to the Xiongnu as a bride.
But by the time the imperial court’s people arrived, Liu Yao had already disappeared without a trace.
Years later, no one could have imagined that this princess had made such a thriving business for herself and had become an honored guest at the Xiongnu royal court.
Later, Emperor Jing pushed the bewildered little Liu Che into Liu Yao’s arms and told him, “From now on, A Yao is your own sister.”
