Retro science fiction books usually reflect the concerns and hopes of the time they were written. They might be worried about nuclear war, as was common in the Cold War era, so some books had post - apocalyptic themes. Or they could be excited about the possibilities of space exploration, like many of the works of Arthur C. Clarke. The language in these books can also be quite distinct, often using a more formal or old - fashioned style compared to modern science fiction.

The Empress only wants to raise her cubs alone

King Chong had a young princess under him, and the emperor named her Li Chengyi. Li Chengyi had been spoiled since he was a child. When he was six years old, he cried and made a fuss as he resolutely entered the palace to be the princess's study companion. King Chong did not understand, and neither did the emperor. With her status, there was no need for her to be gilded, not to mention that the princess was extremely unfavored. Li Chengyi was the only daughter of the Shangguan family and was the childhood sweetheart of the current Emperor. When the Emperor was still the Crown Prince, she was the Crown Princess. After she ascended the throne, she should have been the Empress, but the Emperor made Liangdi the Empress and only gave her the title of Consort. Two years later, the Shangguan Clan was exterminated and she was banished to the Cold Palace. His Majesty said that she was just a substitute for his empress. She was hanged in the Cold Palace. Perhaps the Dragon God had taken pity on her, but she woke up in an unfamiliar body. Li Chengyi finally decided to let go of the love and hatred of his previous life and take care of his daughter, whom he had never even seen in his previous life. However, when Cheng De grew up, he happily introduced all kinds of beautiful men to Li Chengyi. Other than the handsome man, Li Chengyi also had a debt of love from his previous life, a group of uncles, and a bald handsome man. Li Chengyi chose to hold his daughter's hand." My child, what's the point of dating? I'll help you usurp the throne."
