[Ambitious bright princess × tolerant and cold beautiful civil servant]
Jiang Yan is a legitimate princess living among the people.
In her previous life, she returned to the Daming Palace. Her mother was kind and loving, and her father and brother treated her like a jewel. They built her the most grand and splendid princess palace and enjoyed three thousand houses.
Everyone said that no one in Chang'an City could compare to Princess Chaoning.
Because of this, as a princess, Jiang Yan repeatedly interfered in government affairs and was willing to support her brother to inherit the throne.
However, the brotherly love she cared about eventually turned into her brother's jealousy and her biological mother's suspicion.
Later, Princess Chaoning went to the Northern Desert to get married, and eventually died on the eve of the war between the two countries.
After resurrecting her life, Jiang Yan looked at the beautiful and prosperous city of Chang'an, and she was unwilling to be a caged bird again.
She wanted to see what it felt like to be truly above ten thousand people.

There are so many beauties in Chang'an City, and the most dazzling among them is Ji Xun, a close minister of the emperor and a scholar from a humble family who became famous at a young age. Dressed in a crimson official robe, she is as gentle as jade, making her look like the moon in the sky, out of reach.
Many girls were happy with him, but he didn't like to cling to the powerful and declined many marriage posts from aristocratic families.
Until the news of Princess Chaoning's selection of a consort came out, many students from poor families and the children of lords were eager to try.
Officials with whom he was close asked whether he would be willing to run for the consort.
Ji Xun said: "Princess has golden branches and jade leaves, so she doesn't dare to climb high."
On a cold night, the girl knocked on the door alone. She looked at Ji Xun, a civil servant with a beautiful face, and chuckled: "I want to seize power, senior brother, are you willing to help me?"
Ji Xun lowered his eyes, and without asking her what happened, he only replied with one word: "Okay."
Jiang Yan asked him if he could ask for anything.
He said: "I would like to pay homage to the Lord."

The kind-hearted Princess Chaoning married the humble gentleman Ji, and the civil and military officials in the court praised them as a perfect couple.
It wasn't until one day when Jiang Yan sat at the top of the dynasty that they discovered that these two men were both cannibals who had quietly seized power and usurped the throne.
Reading guide:
1. Emotions + plot, there are battles between palaces, houses, and courts.
2. Sweet and refreshing writing, trivializing power and strategy, imagining history, and avoiding research.
3. A slow-growing heroine. I wish everyone a happy reading.
Intention: If a woman is established, the world will be broad
