- A Thousand Years of Brass and Blood is the sequel to When Rome Stood Firm. - The Eternal City no longer rests on seven hills. It rests on steam pipes, iron rails, and secrets buried five centuries deep. The year is 1000 AD. The New Roman Empire stands at the zenith of human civilization. Navis Aeria airships rule the skies. The Via Ferrea connects continents in days. The Fila Aetheria carries the pulse of commerce and command to every corner of an empire stretching from Britannia to the borders of Serica. Five great pillars hold this machine in balance: the Emperor, the forty-two provincial houses, the Senate, the Church, and the Collegium Aethericum whose mastery of Aether technology has made every wonder of this age possible. But the most magnificent machines are the ones that hide how badly they are breaking. An emergency aetherogramma arrives through the Fila Aetheria's most classified channel: Iberia has erupted in open rebellion. To the Senate it is another fire to extinguish with legions and logistics. But Emperor Aurelius II knows something the Senate does not. Something he will not explain even to his own son. Something that makes this rebellion different from every uprising that has come before. The Emperor departs for the frontier. All Fila Aetheria access to Iberia is severed. All Via Ferrea connections cut. Rome is left in silence. And silence, in a city this vast, is never merely quiet. It is pressure building behind a sealed door. Aurelius II leaves Rome in the hands of Romulus III: Caesar, twenty-one years old, heir to five centuries of glory, now trusted with a throne he was never meant to occupy this soon. Under the guidance of Aelius Tacitus, Imperial Historian of seventy years and keeper of everything the empire has preferred not to display, Romulus must hold the capital together while the wolves of the Senate sharpen their questions and seven hundred unanswered aetherogrammata pile up in the palace signal room. Because the rebellion in Iberia is not asking for land or lower taxes. It is asking a question so fundamental that the empire has not been forced to answer it in five hundred years. A question about blood. About legitimacy. About whether the throne at the center of the world is sitting on the foundation everyone believes it is. The Five Pillars are beginning to fracture. Secrets buried deep enough to have been almost forgotten are running out of patience. And Aelius Tacitus, who has spent forty years writing the history of the empire's founding, knows that the past is never simply the past. It is a map. And maps, in the right hands, are weapons. Civil war is coming. One empire. One rebellion. One truth that will unmake everything.

Fu Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book and immediately faces the crisis of being sent to the countryside. As the unloved middle child, her younger sister is the one meant to go — but her mother transfers her job to the sister instead. A disaster of a start. To avoid being sent away, she has to marry within seven days. She meets a few ordinary men and decides she'd rather go to the countryside. Then she runs into a neighbor who's also looking for a spouse — and his conditions are surprisingly good. A dowry of three hundred? Bicycles and a radio? Just take care of the kids, and separate rooms are fine? The others may pass, but she won't. Every day is a battle of wits with the two kids. Life is eventful, she gets a salary every month, and the boss is never home. Absolutely perfect. Except... wasn't this big shot supposed to be infertile? Then why does he keep strutting around naked in front of her? She has professional ethics. She won't be seduced by a good body. Hmph. Men only slow down her sword swing. Lu Feng grits his teeth at Fu Xiaoxiao, who remains completely unmoved by his countless attempts to seduce her, and traps her in his arms. "Boss, let's talk this through. I know forty a month is a bit much — how about... five less?" Trapped in his embrace, Fu Xiaoxiao thinks he's unhappy with her high salary and starts bargaining. "I'm giving myself to you for free." Lu Feng grinds out through clenched teeth. This woman has no heart. "...Can I say no?" Fu Xiaoxiao swallows, staring at the washboard abs so close. "Such a good deal — are you sure you don't want it?" Lu Feng squints, tempting her. "Fine." A fool turns down a bargain.
