"You want me to return the government to him, but how do you know I am not the one chosen by Heaven?"
At first, Shen Chongning thought she would serve as regent for only a few years. Once the young emperor came of age, she would hand power back to him.
But after she had crossed a thousand mountains and ten thousand rivers, subdued the Wolf King, reclaimed lost territory, reformed the bureaucracy, and quelled the floods, personally bringing peace and prosperity to a Great Yue battered by storms...
She suddenly no longer wanted to give up the throne.
She was the late emperor's eldest daughter, with outstanding wisdom and ability. Was she truly unfit to wield imperial power and rule the realm simply because she was a woman?
No!
She would not only become Great Yue's first empress, but its greatest ruler!
She wanted the name Shen Chongning to be recorded in the annals of history and remembered for all eternity!
*Informal blurb, will be revised before the story begins
*This is not a female-led power fantasy or a strong-woman story. There is a male love interest, and he is not just a background character. Romance takes up a significant portion of the story. There are multiple male supporting characters who love the heroine; the spotlight is distributed according to the characters, not their gender. The same goes for the villains.
*I'm here to write a story, not an ideology.
*This is simply a story about a princess ascending the throne. Anyone who blocks the heroine's path will be killed, male or female. Anyone who helps her will be rewarded, male or female. Talented men and women alike will be put to use.
*Don't tell me how to write. As long as I don't violate public order and good morals, I'll write however I want.
*The entire story will be written before release. I won't start posting until it's finished.
