The Female Emperor

"When I was fifteen, I fell in love with the Crown Prince. He said he had admired me for a long time, too." "But as soon as he took the throne, he used me and tossed me aside. He didn’t even bother to pretend." So when I started recruiting soldiers and horses to rebel, when I went all these years without a man by my side, when I stormed the imperial throne hall with a sword in my hand, everyone said I was doing it for the young emperor. I keep wondering if they’re all blind, since they can’t see how much I want the throne, how much I love power. This story has a large cast and plenty of different values, so I’m not listing any content warnings. Written to indulge myself. An obscure subject, an ensemble cast, and the everyday business of a female emperor and her female ministers conquering the realm. The main story begins when the heroine leaves the palace. Core theme: Don’t use the words "woman" or "girl" to hold me back
