Huo Cheng must have done good deeds in her previous life, because in this one she was born under an incredibly lucky star.
In her original life, she was a consort to a young emperor, with a high rank and generous treatment. Even better, the emperor and her powerful minister father were at odds, so she was treated rather coldly, too. In other words, she didn't have to wait on a man!
Huo Cheng: I'm going to lie down. Do whatever you want.
The only downside was her foolish but beautiful mother. Every time she lost a fight in the household, she'd come to see Huo Cheng, weeping: "My child, you must become empress and win your mother some respect!"
Huo Cheng: Mm-hmm, sure, absolutely. (Indifferent.jpg)
Then one day, her powerful minister father brought her to a court assembly, where the young emperor, wearing a black-and-red crown, slowly said, "I wish to recover an ancient sword from the days when I was poor and lowly. Do any of you have a way to help?"
Huo Cheng, a fan of the reunited lovers Liu Xun and Xu Pingjun in her previous life: What the heck, did I just stumble into a legendary scene between my favorite couple?
No, wait. If he's Liu Xun, then who am I?!
Huo Cheng, daughter of a powerful minister: You're telling me I transmigrated into the woman who broke up my favorite couple?!
Huo Cheng covered her face in anguish. In full view of everyone, she threw herself down before Liu Xun and said, "Your Majesty, the story of you and your first wife is so moving. After hearing it, I am too ashamed to show my face. I humbly request permission to leave the palace. Please grant my wish!"
Liu Bingyi: ?
Huo Guang: 6
Many years later, Huo Cheng pointed to a map of the Han Empire, beaming with pride. "Your Majesty and Empress, look! This is the empire I conquered for the two of you!"

This is how later generations' textbooks describe Huo Cheng.
She was a renowned minister during the reigns of Emperor Xuan and Emperor Yuan of the Western Han, and tutor to the crown princes of both emperors.
She ranked second in the Qilin Pavilion and was the first female Grand General and Grand Marshal in the Han Empire.
She was also a celebrated female military strategist, philosopher, and scientist of the Han dynasty.
Her brilliance shines through the ages.
