Dream of the Warring States: The Heroic Beauty

An archaeology prodigy, she comes to Shang Yang Square to investigate the whereabouts of the Heshibi, only to receive a jade hairpin from a mysterious old man and transmigrate to the Warring States period as the only princess of the declining Great Zhou... From then on, she casts off her image as a frail princess. A political marriage? Her happiness is in her own hands. She refuses. Harem intrigue? With her prodigious intellect, how could she let a few women who've spent their lives in the inner palace get the better of her? Open a shop? Then she'll make a fortune and rival the wealth of a nation. Ideas and philosophies? You have the contention of a hundred schools, and I have a blend of Chinese and Western thought. Wage war? There are countless famous battles, and history provides all the examples she needs. But... Shang Yang, that unconventional man with the world in his heart, such conviction, and such resolve... As a wandering scholar, you are graceful and unconventional. As an iron-fisted statesman, you fear no sacrifice, overthrow slavery, and bring the rule of law to all under heaven. As a lover, you defy convention and dare to fight for what you want. You would face death nine times over for your ideals, and remain true to love for all your life. Why, when you are so wonderful, am I powerless to do anything but watch you... march toward your doom? (The male lead's story) Since ancient times, ruling the people depends on trust and sincerity; a single word is worth more than a hundred pieces of gold. We should not condemn Shang Yang today: he ensured that every decree was carried out. He traveled the world, winning people over with his presence. His bold doctrines kept kings awake as they listened to him speak for three days and nights. By moving a tree to prove his word, he united the people of Qin. His reforms made Qin strong, lifting it from poverty and weakness to become one of the great powers under heaven. He was a brilliant, dazzling wandering scholar, and a resolute statesman who dared to innovate and helped bring slavery to an end. But why... Did that carefree woman become his one and only weakness?
