Pian Fangfang

Meng Qianqian, at the age of 15, married into the Lu Family to bring joy to the elderly matriarch.

On the wedding night, urgent news arrived from the border that her husband had been commanded to go to war. Six months later, he tragically died at the hands of Beiliang soldiers.

Five years later, the husband who had been presumed dead returned, and by his side was an ethereal mute woman named Wan'er.

Lu Lingxiao said that Wan'er was the descendant of a loyal and righteous family, entirely different from her—a merchant girl reeking of copper coins. He claimed Wan'er was a true paragon of noble character.

Lu Lingxiao also said that Wan'er was an eagle soaring in the heavens, while someone like her was nothing more than a fragile flower, unworthy of comparison.

It was not until the land was broken, the city walls fell, and she wielded a Red Tassel Spear to crush countless soldiers that Lu Lingxiao realized he had misjudged her.

She was not a delicate flower confined within the depths of the mansion; she was the fiercest west wind of Yumen Pass.

Crowned by the Treacherous Big Shot

It was not until everyone had gone far away that Eunuch Fu let out a heavy sigh and said, "I really didn't expect Lu Yuan to leave behind such a trump card."


Even if the Jinyi Guard had arrived today, they might not have been able to snatch anyone away from the Imperial Guard. But it had to be the Old Lady—


"No wonder he dared to go up the mountain alone; he had calculated that the Old Lady would come looking for him."


No, he didn't just calculate it; he had planned everything from the very beginning.


Eunuch Fu couldn't help but think of the former Chu Grand Marshal. On the battlefield, Chu Grand Marshal was meticulous and left nothing to chance. The difference was, Chu Grand Marshal was only good at war and abandoned all cunning once he left the battlefield.


But as for Lu Yuan, no matter where he was, he was calculating all the time. Anyone could be used by him—his confidante, the Old Lady, even himself.


The Old Lady's group exited the temple.
