I Became a Manly Big Shot in the Three Kingdoms

As a young woman from a prestigious, high-ranking family, with generations of beautiful women in her bloodline, A Jin thought she would always have fine clothes and good food, with nothing to worry about. But her grandfather, the Grand Commandant, wanted a boy to bring glory to the clan. Her high-ranking father wanted a boy to inherit his legacy. Even her mother wanted a handsome boy... A Jin was a strong-willed girl. She gritted her teeth and said, "How hard can that be?" She tied up her hair and flourished her sword. This young man was skilled in both letters and arms, famous from a young age. How did she fall short of any other boy? She had dressed as a boy for sixteen years, and everyone in the clan had grown used to it. Then one day, her handsome cousin took her to meet someone else. "This is Sun Ce, Sun Bofu, a childhood friend of mine." As A Jin gazed at the rolling waves and the white-haired fishermen and woodcutters, she calmly strapped on her sword and decided to keep her secret to the grave. Yet no one could have imagined that the crimson-robed god of slaughter, who swept across battlefields, won great victories, became famous throughout the land, and plucked enemy generals from the midst of their armies as easily as taking something from a bag, was a woman. In troubled times, human lives are as insignificant as blades of grass, and a woman's life even more so. But Zhou Jin refused to accept her fate. As a woman, she would break old conventions and prejudice beneath the gaze of all, and make her name known throughout the land. After uniting the realm, Zhou Jin ascended the throne and looked down on her assembled ministers. "Women can adorn themselves before their mirrors, or bring the world to heel on horseback. I will govern the land with wisdom and bring every nation to pay tribute." 2023/1/4 Reader's guide: 1. A story of conquest and fighting to rule the land. 2.
