Regent Princess x Female General Who Protects the Nation
A grand unrequited love and a counterattack
In the sixteenth year of Xuanyuan, Xie Wenjun first met the daughter of the Marquis of Xuanping, who had returned to the capital from the northern frontier.
In the bloom of youth, with pearly teeth and graceful brows.
She watched for the one returning at the Jade Terrace. One breathtaking glance, and a longing for someone she knew she could never have became an obsession.
But in Chen Liangyu's memory of the early autumn of the sixteenth year of Xuanyuan, the princess, who seemed harmless but was actually capricious and dark-minded, ranked among the top three people she least wanted to get close to. Better to avoid her whenever possible.
Chen Liangyu: I absolutely do not want to get involved with this noble princess of the Eastern Palace!
For a long time, Xie Wenjun couldn't help presenting Chen Liangyu with everything she wanted, trying to get close to someone who was on guard against her every moment.
Xie Wenjun: Do you really have to marry my third brother? (Shattered)
Chen Liangyu: She's testing me again. The Crown Prince sent her! (Absolutely certain)
In an instant, the realm changed, and the brush of history began to write.
Noble families fought among themselves, land was seized, and powerful enemies lurked beyond the borders. With every move a bad one, Princess Xie Wenjun shouldered the immense burden of state and people's welfare on her frail frame.
Her ministers, out of concern, painstakingly selected more than twenty male favorites for the princess.
Chen Liangyu couldn't sit still any longer, so she hurried to Xie Wenjun and said, "I may not be a beauty, but I'm decent enough. I volunteer to share your bed."
Just this once in a lifetime, I will betray neither the realm nor you.
[Younger regent princess, forbidden unrequited love, political intrigue, an ensemble cast of women growing up under a feudal dynasty, and a princess who takes power and rules as regent. Switch pairing, happy ending.]
Notes:
1. Chen Liangyu is very, very straight at first. Even after falling for Xie Wenjun, she doesn't think of it as love. Once she finally gets it, she struts like a peacock.
2. The style leans toward serious historical drama, with political intrigue, but the romance isn't angsty.
3. This is a fictional setting, not a female-led dynasty or a matriarchy, and it leans toward orthodox history.
4. Both leads are each other's only partners, and the ending is happy.
[Completed and fully revised on December 31, 2025.] If any chapters are changed again, it'll be to add notes about official titles, specialized terms, and obscure words, or to fix typos. Next I'll organize the detailed outline for A Parting Embrace 2.
[Please add my next story to your library] The next one will be A Straight Woman's Guide to Turning Someone Gay.
A person with severe depression x a therapist, a short story of 100,000 to 150,000 words.
It's already being written. I'll post once the whole thing is finished.
Live well, and I'll love you slowly.
Theme: If it's unprecedented, then begin with yourself.
It's been a long time since I've read such a comforting novel. It took me a long time to read the final chapter because I really couldn't let it go. At the end of the extra chapter, when the phrase "the sixteenth year of Xuanyuan, Autumn" was echoed, both the protagonist and various group portraits seemed to flash before my eyes, bidding me farewell one by one like old friends. And I also want to say, how lucky I am to meet you all! The setting of a talented woman and a beautiful woman has always been my favorite, but it is really rare to have a story with such appealing characters, plot, and writing style, so I decided to write a book review quickly and express my love to the author as soon as possible! Starting from the plot, the author uses the emotional line between Xie and Chen as the texture and the political competition between the Xuanyuan and Zhenyuan dynasties as the main line to lay out a magnificent and grand "history". By using the two protagonists to face the court at one end and the border fortress at the other, the turbulent internal affairs and the endless war in the north are revealed. When it comes to internal affairs, from Jiang Ning's reluctance to speak out before the storm, to King Qi's rebellion and Xie San's ascension to the throne, to the rift between brother and sister, the two dynasties finally turned against each other. Over a long period of decades, the two dynasties took turns to fight, selfish and righteous, Chen Xun and Zhang Yao Yan fought for power and fame, and finally let the princess lay a big chess game from the trials of Bu Wanliao, Xing Women's School, and Cha Nongsang, relying on strength and ambition to move to the center of power step by step. On the other side, General Chen was mounting his gun and fighting vigorously with the Northern Yongdong Yinnanzhou and Kuirong chieftain Di Cumanuo. The literary and the martial arts complement each other just right. Both are observers and participants in the game. In the end, they grow from young boys with green hair to lovers working side by side. Of course, the author also spares no effort in giving the two protagonists the halo of intrigue they deserve, making the full text full of real drama and adding a smooth reading experience. In terms of emotions, who wouldn't be confused by Chen Liangyu's setting of maximizing intelligence and strength but still having a handsome face? All I can say is that the princess can look at her for thousands of years as easily as breathing! From being uncomfortable with the situation to asking the young general to recommend himself as a pillow, the princess said that it was just a few tricks and it was "easy" (Princess: Get out!). Chen Liangyu's long road to awakening over there was really unbearable. He struggled with himself and tortured his opponent, but fortunately he finally grew into a super loyal dog-type companion. The big shots are always busy with business, and the author is really "stingy" in allowing the two protagonists to be more affectionate, so the couple always comes and goes in a hurry, leaving behind endless longing. In addition to the ups and downs of political struggle and the delicate and sentimental emotional lines, the author also put a lot of effort into the conception and design of people from all walks of life. The number of characters, the number of relationships, and the depth of the bonds are amazing. First of all, I want to say hello to the various female statues that appear around Xie Chen. Among these people, there are those who hang pots to help the world, those who accompany the ancient Buddha with green lanterns, those who go into battle to kill the enemy, and those who fall into the dust. Each has its place of origin and its return. Reading it makes people wonder, this is how women should walk between heaven and earth. How far have their infinite talents been buried in history books over thousands of years? The author also gives the greatest tenderness to those who are like floating ducks, allowing them to retain the dignity and character that women should have in the turbulent times. As for the male portraits, the author still gives appropriate brushstrokes. Those characters who are high in temples or far away from rivers and lakes are all vivid and three-dimensional, just like the people around them. Among the characters throughout the story, there are some who are honest, some who are heartless, some who have a happy ending, and some who are helpless. No matter what, when the picture is unfolded, each character has his own path to go and his own story to tell. Whether it is a stormy journey or the end of the road, everything is complete. As for the diction and choice of words, they are really impeccable. The most taboo thing about ancient style writing is being far-fetched and making a lot of pretentious and censorious words just to make people confused. However, the descriptions of the characters' speech, behavior, and mood in this article are all consistent with their respective identities, and the reading is decent and generous. As for the description of the scenery, it is even more elegant and smooth, and the situation comes to life on the page. At the same time, there are many policies, official positions, etc. In the article. The author explains the historical basis in annotations, connecting the plot and adding depth to the whole text, without showing off his skills, which is admirable. Due to the author's rich vocabulary and the fact that I am an educator, I have been reading and looking up the text for a while ("Attached notes" are attached). There are also some miscellaneous things written at the end of the article. In the dignified and steady writing style, the author did not forget to work hard, and the magical scene of creating a time traveler actually happened without any violation. In the end, he even let his soul pass through again successfully, completing the line he buried with his own hands, Ruisibai. In addition, the author's comedy skills are also evident. Whether the protagonist is frustrated, the group is bickering, or there are little easter eggs such as changing the year name, a certain plot point in three or two strokes will make me laugh out loud, and I am jealous that I can't write such clever words! (He kicked his legs in anxiety. Jpg) In short, the writing of the whole text shows the carefulness of the writing. The author uses grand perspective and ambition to create a parallel universe that belongs to her, them and them, and enriches the flesh and soul of each character with delicate brushwork and emotion. At the end of the article, I feel as if I have lost it, just like when Commander Gao bid farewell to Miss Li, the two of them exchanged drinks with the two wine glasses left in the bluestone pavilion, "as if they were waiting for someone to come, and as if someone had just walked away..." Who can tell clearly whether the two of them in the story have gone far? Want it again!! Thanks to the author for creating such a stunning work, I would like to express my gratitude by writing my first crude and amateurish but very sincere book review!!

I was about to lament that I was most afraid of seeing old age, and then I saw that the regent died after ten years. My heart ached. . .

Unexpectedly, the knife came anyway, and Liangyu had to live alone and painfully without the princess for 4 years. It is unimaginable how painful it was, but two people who loved each other so much could not grow old together, and their year names were also erased. Damn it, the author, are you touching your heart and saying this? Ah, ah, in the whole life, we have been together less and apart, and after becoming the regent, we have to work hard all the time. In the end, our life is short, what a big knife orz. Although people are mortal, but in the extra story, I want to see them take off their burdens and travel around the world together. I can only comfort myself, that flag must have a role, and they can accompany each other for the next three lives and even all the lives.
Happy New Year! Looking forward to the second round!
I'm finally waiting for you (the end)~🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆 🤩 The handsome eldest princess (Xie Wenjun) had hidden Jiang Ning (Xie Wenjun) too deeply before, thinking that she was such a gentle and kind person! After the showdown, Jiang Ning was extremely handsome, even more handsome than her wife Chen Liangyu! She is even better than her brother Yizhang, the crown prince! It's a pity that she is not focused on the throne, but fortunately she is not focused on the throne. The "king of a country" has so many things he can't help himself with. It's not enough that he doesn't have time to fall in love, and he has to worry about state affairs every day. But she cares about her family and country, so being regent is probably the best solution. I really like the character of the eldest princess 😳, her tenacious temperament, deep heart, gentleness and love for the people, rational strategy, and stubbornness towards Chen Liangyu (preference) Damn, I want to ask, I feel like Chen Liangyu also had a crush on Jiang Ning at the beginning, because no matter what happened to Jiang Ning, she was always there. Then, she did not push away the kiss, but chose to "play dead". Chen Liangyu, a straight girl who likes but doesn't know it, once she falls in love, she will obey her orders. What a contrast to a great general 😳😳😳 Xie Yuan didn't know until his death that Jiang Ning had plotted against him, but when he was dying, it was not too pitiful for a woman, the queen, to stand up to the officials with a sword for him (or perhaps for the little prince). Of the characters in this article, I most want to "dip the character Sheng Yu'an into the pig cage". I want it, want it, and want it again, so that I can be the first to fall. In the end, everyone has the ending they deserve~~Perfect (hands of Teacher Jinxing)~~[Spread flowers][Spread flowers][Spread flowers] ps: I really like your way of writing. It has a strong "ancient" flavor (personal opinion). I must have consulted a lot of "data", right? It's really hard work! It's hard work!!! 🤗 [Let me be healthy] [Let me be healthy] [Let me be healthy] I look forward to the second part of "Yi Wan"!!!!
Dear author, will you continue to write a modern side story about them in the future? 🤩 🤩 🤩 I really want to see it. Not only Xiao Xie and Xiao Chen, but also other characters can appear in the extra chapter. I will be really happy 💪 💪 What I want to see the most is that in the extra chapter, Xiao Xie and Xiao Chen can recover some memories of the previous life, fulfill the wishes made under the lamp, live in peace and grow old together hand in hand. 💪 💪 💪
Hey, let's have more sweet daily extras.
I finally finished reading it. I'm really surprised by the wonderful narrative and the appropriate use of words. This should be my favorite Machiavellian article so far 🤩 🤩 🤩 But when I look at the back, I realize that I still won't live to be the emperor, and the two of them are still separated for four years, and they can't join hands until they grow old together. 😭 😭 😭 I really hope that the wishes they made under the lamp will come true, but the ending is very logical and reasonable. There is no forced consummation, although selfishly I still hope that they can achieve consummation. . . Also, the author's grand narrative of history is too much for my taste, and it does not give the characters more halo. It is really like reading a history with the nature of a novel. I am also very grateful to the author for writing such a good article. Who knows? While I cried, I felt that such an ending was really reasonable, and I very much supported such writing. These endings can also be confirmed by historical facts. It's really refreshing to read. . . Actually. . . Selfishly, I still hope that they will have a more happy ending. . . Oh, forget it, let's just say we meet again after four years and go to a better world, but I still can't bear to part with it 😭 😭 😭
Ouch, this is a great article, but it's a pity that I only saw it now. It's really well written. I'm looking forward to the development of the two of them in the second part, and also looking forward to the limited-time return of the eldest princess, General Chen. [The plot of power is really enjoyable to watch. It's been a long time since I've seen a story about plotting about sovereignty and emotions. The key points are all written very well. I hope you will write more new articles. Looking forward to it!
Looking forward to the next chapter of the extra chapter!
Yimanli, finally a sweet extra story
