Her country fell and her family was destroyed. When disaster struck Huaibei, she was abducted to the north overnight. Once the most honored princess of Liang, she became a concubine offered by her own father to curry favor with powerful nobles and their puppet emperor.
The Gao emperors were notoriously deranged, and their absurdities were too numerous to count. Xiao Yue had resigned herself to her fate.
But when they finally met, she discovered that this young emperor was nothing like her mad uncle and his brothers.
Her madness was different.
More different still was her sex.
She was the orphaned daughter of the late crown prince, and through a twist of fate, she ascended the throne. In life, she wanted only four things: the throne, power, the realm, and Xiao Yue.
Her heart burned with ambition, her desires were insatiable. Even if she descended into the deepest hell, she would never regret it.
After meeting Gao Ying, Xiao Yue's long-dormant life began to kindle once more. She no longer wanted to resign herself to fate.
After centuries of Hu and Han, how could the lands north and south of the great river remain divided?
After thousands of years of history, let us sing of heroes, their purity and corruption!
Why not turn our weapons eastward, and send our ships and masts racing down the rapids toward Jing and Yang!
“Man Jiang Hong”
I gaze into the vast distance and see only the grass swaying on Yinshan. From the heights, I look out over the smoke-shrouded plains of Chile and the towers of Jinyang. The Chu traveler in Chang'an has drifted away with the water; twenty years of splendor have melted like ice. I can no longer recall the autumn osmanthus of Jinling, or the pavilion at Orchid Pavilion.
Drums pound, the pipa blazes, and the flames of war stain the land. When will they be extinguished? I mourn the ravages of war, the greatest torment of heroes. My name belongs in the annals of history; the northern wind will set the golden bells ringing. Why should I fear the countless mounds of Mangshan, or the moon above the vast river?
A princess of a fallen kingdom X a mad emperor
(Note: Gao Ying's madness is objectively real, not just a subjective impression. She won't go into a fit, smash things, turn red-eyed, grab someone by the waist, and threaten to kill them at the drop of a hat. She won't! She won't! Really, she won't!)
Theme: I will follow my heart, no matter which way the road leads.
Thank you to the author for bringing their story 🙏 I will cherish the touching author Gu Bai [Make Me Kangkang] The jade-like Xiao Yue and the ambitious A Ying will be treasured in my heart forever ❤️
It's really a masterpiece. The plot is very smooth and smooth. There are no contradictions. The emotions come naturally. The characters are full-bodied. Highly recommended.
It's very interesting. I like the two protagonists very much. This book makes me feel as if their era really existed, and I also like the little historical knowledge contained in the story.
The writing is top-notch among fictional history genres, and every female character is so lovable??
I'm so glad to see this story
