Si Jin

The day the city fell, Feng Yun was treated by her father as a spoil of war and presented to the enemy general.
Everyone pitied her, soon to be a captive, plunging into a fiery pit.
Yet she veiled the little donkey cart that took her out of the city tightly, daring not to let anyone see the secret delight in her heart…
As a child, she behaved oddly and spoke startling words, once predicting a war in which the whole army was wiped out, nearly being burned to death by her clan as a demon.
When she grew up, her beauty was out of the world, but she was rejected by her husband's family.
In the period of chaos and disorder everywhewe, where could a female captive go?
"I do not seek a devoted partner to grow old with; I merely wish to rule unrivaled in this life."
In her previous life, Feng Yun was always the one being scorned by others; in this life, she decided to strike first, turning the tables on each and every one of them, those so-called unreachable flowers and beasts in gentleman's clothing, those degenerates… all to be scorned in return.

The Slender Waist

Pei Jue's words hid a trace of cold aftertaste.


Feng Yun's back inexplicably chilled, and she raised her eyes.


The two shared a glance, and Feng Yun said indifferently,


The maids stood outside the door, and upon hearing her, they answered in unison, "Yes."


The sound of footsteps receded, and the door closed.


Pei Jue reached out and pulled her close.


Feng Yun didn't move, her voice calm, "Today, in front of Chunyu Yan, I pledged that Yecheng would fall to Xijing within at most three years."


Feng Yun asked, "Does Your Majesty think I was bluffing?"


The corners of Pei Jue's mouth unconsciously pursed.


He wasn't someone who liked to make empty boasts and suffer the consequences in secret.


Without absolute certainty, he would not make rash promises.


Both of them were well aware of the situation within the Imperial Court.
