She was known throughout the land as the--
Empress Who Aborted Her Children.
The legitimate daughter of a military family, a noblewoman from an illustrious clan.
She should have grown old together with her childhood sweetheart,
but a war left her a widow.
For the sake of an alliance between their families,
she married her fiance's older brother.
She helped him seize power and ascend the throne,
placing him on the imperial throne with her own hands.
But on the day she was formally installed as empress,
the child in her womb was lost, too.
From then on,
she seemed to go mad and began aborting her children.
The princes died one after another, and the imperial harem was swept by bloodshed.
The court and the historians reached the same conclusion:
She was jealous and cruel, consumed by hatred born of love.
Even the emperor believed it.
In his eyes,
she loved him but could not have him,
and went mad because she couldn't bear his children with other women.
Until--
a pregnancy-protection System forcibly bound itself to her.
The System's cold announcement:
If you continue to abort your children, your life will be in danger.
As long as you protect your pregnancy,
your health will gradually recover,
your looks will not fade, and you will be immune to all illness.
She lowered her eyes and accepted.
From then on--
the Empress Who Aborted Her Children was forced to protect her pregnancy.
But no one knew
that from the very beginning, this entire pregnancy-protection scheme was her way of going with the flow to exact revenge.
