This novel has entered the process of being removed from sale. New readers, please don't buy it anymore. Wait for the official removal.
I'm very sorry to have let down everyone who enjoyed this novel. The author is unwell and needs time to rest, and work has been busy, so I'm no longer able to keep updating. After it is removed from sale, I'll post the outline and detailed outline on Weibo.
Perhaps our paths will cross again someday. Until then, farewell.
Blurb:
In the twenty-ninth year of Jian'an, Jiang Yuan, the eldest daughter of the Minister of Rites, went mad.
Most women in the world were gentle and demure, but Jiang Yuan dared to chop off one of her betrothed's hands in front of a crowd, then scold him for being all talk and utterly useless.
Minister Jiang ordered her locked in the ancestral hall, but the next day, she had vanished without a trace.
From then on, the Minister's household lost its eldest daughter, while a remote border stronghold gained a young chieftain.
The country was in turmoil. A soul from another world only wanted somewhere to settle down and make a living. But perhaps she was born unable to sit on the sidelines. As the heroes of the land rose up, she too wanted a share of the spoils, even as a woman.
Are all men really so capable? Why should women be any worse? The sons and daughters of China are full of great ambition: dare to make the sun and moon shine in a new sky!
Build high walls, stockpile grain, and delay proclaiming yourself king. Jiang Yuan's whole strategy is to lie low. She tends her little patch of land, fires the first shot for the red cause, establishes a quality education system, and liberates women's minds... She's ready to make a big move!
Under the pretext of maintaining public order, she amassed an army of a hundred thousand, then refused the court's offer of amnesty. The military adviser she'd tricked into joining her could take it no longer and asked what she was actually after. Jiang Yuan clutched her chest in anguish and cried, "If I only had ten thousand soldiers, I could accept the court's amnesty. But now I have a full hundred thousand troops at my command. How, how can I possibly deal with this?"
Military adviser: ...
A no-CP power fantasy about a heroine conquering the land. I've wanted to write a story about a woman building her own empire for ages, and I finally couldn't resist starting one.
There will be more female side characters than male ones. They're all capable, independent women fighting for a new society!
My other no-CP novel, Laugh at Me for Learning Immortality So Late, is updating at the same time. Please show it lots of support, everyone~
Content warning:
I previously closed the comments because someone kept accusing me of thoughtcrime in the free chapters and demanding that I change certain words. There's no juicy drama; some people simply annoyed the author so much that I lost my resolve. This is not a feminist novel, just a story about conquering the land. Please read with care if that bothers you.
Theme: Devote your whole life to the greater good of the nation.
