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

"Without your mother, there would have been no Ni Rong in this world, nor would there have been the lady of the castle master today, just a tragic death beneath Tu Mountain... a lonely and wild ghost."


Ni Rong, that was Lady Tu's maiden name, right?


Feng Yun gave a slight smile, noticing she had omitted some inconvenient truths, but it didn't concern her mother, so she didn't ask.


"How long did my mother live on Tu Mountain?"


She didn't hesitate, her words were firm and decisive.


Feng Yun was somewhat surprised, "Three years?"


"She left the day after my wedding without saying goodbye. During those three years, we lived together at Tu Family Fort, sharing our lives, our meals and our rooms, it was very happy, ah, those were the happiest three years of my life..."


Lady Tu knew she wanted to hear more, so she smiled, nodded.
