Liu An is the only empress in the history of the Da Jiang Dynasty, and the only woman emperor ever recorded in its annals.
Liu An is the eldest daughter of Emperor Chengdao. She has seven younger brothers and one younger sister.
No matter how you look at it, the throne should never go to Liu An, a mere woman.
Yet thanks to her identity as a woman, after surviving one deadly crisis after another, from the witchcraft scandal in the Eastern Palace to the Cai clan's rebellion and a palace coup, she seizes control of the court as the Grand Princess Regent.
The ministers kneel and bow before her, the people of the realm submit to her, and she holds all power in her own hands.
Seated high above them, she laughs and runs her fingers over the carvings on the dragon throne. "Oh? So this is what it feels like to be the only one who matters?"
No wonder her brothers fought so fiercely for this seat.
Still, the seal of a Grand Princess doesn't carry as much weight as the Imperial Seal.
What does it matter whether she is a woman or a man?
Is there some inscription on the dragon throne saying only men can sit on it?
Does the imperial throne bear a name saying only men can rule?
If there's no precedent, then she'll make one!
She will open border markets, appoint female officials, quell rebellions, fight the northern barbarians, repel pirates, and reclaim lost territory. Every one of these deeds will earn her praise from generations to come!

Theme: Duty to family and country
The copywriting is not very good. This will make me have huge expectations for the heroine at the beginning. I suggest you change the copywriting to a slightly more group-like copywriting. This is just my opinion (don't criticize me 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏)
I feel like the heroine is a bit dull
Damn, I think your writing is very good. I don't know why you can't get up there, and I'm worried about you. After taking a look at the copy, I feel that it must be changed again 😭 The introduction of the brothers and sisters is one, two, three, four, five, six and seven. Many people may have run away after seeing this [angry]
Rouse, you... Are so awesome and so perseverant.
