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 held Feng Yun in his arms, seating her inside the boat cabin. The small boat was lightweight and had a black awning overhead, separated from the world by a curtain. Inside, there was light, tables, and chairs, neatly arranged.


There was no ferryman, no attendants; Pei Jue would have to row the boat himself.


Feng Yun sat quietly, smiling as she watched.


The lantern at the stern swayed gently, and the boat slowly drifted from the shore.


Feng Yun vaguely saw the ferryman standing on the bank, pausing to watch them and chuckled:


"He must have. Otherwise, how could he be at ease letting you take the boat?" Feng Yun said with a smile, glancing sideways one more time before asking, "Your Majesty, do you know how to row?"


The sound of the oar blades lightly breaking the water filled the air.


"Where to?" he finally asked after a moment.
