Let others fight the war; you, lucky Austria, go and get married! What the god of war can give you, the god of love can also give you. The smoke of the Napoleonic Wars has dissipated, and the Vienna System, which once brought peace to Europe, is now riddled with holes. Beneath the seemingly calm surface of peace lies a turbulent undercurrent of history, the calm before the storm. The air was thick with the steam of sweat, the acrid black smoke making it hard to breathe. At an elegant dining table, a group of soldiers and a portly man in a suit were jostling each other, feasting on what they called a world-class meal. A self-portrait of Van Gogh hung on the wall, and the waltzes of the Strauss family filled the air. Suddenly, the music changed to a march, and the scene shifted to a battlefield. Soldiers marched in neat rows towards machine gun emplacements and barbed wire. A shell landed, and after the smoke cleared, countless cavalrymen charged towards the artillery positions. With a deafening roar, a steam tank spewed flames. A wooden airplane skimmed the ground, dropped its bombs, and then rapidly ascended, bursting through the clouds in a dazzling display of light.

She experienced the Battle of Changping, witnessing the massacre of hundreds of thousands. She led the Qin cavalry, vying for supremacy with the six other states. She saw the world divided into three, the land shattered. She also heard the lingering melodies of the Longzhong Qin. She reveled in the prosperous Zhenguan era, but how did that legendary empress live her life? She rode in fine clothes and spirited horses, and also wore a feather fan and a silk turban. She was a farmer and a teacher. Yet, no one knows that such a person lived for two thousand years. Well, this is a relatively light and leisurely historical novel. Due to personal reasons, it may not be entirely historically accurate or withstand rigorous scrutiny. But I will try my best to research all the relevant materials. This is my first time writing this kind of story, and I hope it will be interesting, haha. Finally, be warned, this is a single-player story.
