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

"Grand Commander, the alley isn't far. Shall we leave the carriage and walk over?"


At the front gate, Meng Qianqian said to Lu Yuan.


Lu Yuan replied indifferently, "Up to you."


Meng Qianqian smiled, cradling Bao Shu in her arms as she walked towards Zhuque Avenue. As they walked, she taught Bao Shu how to speak.


Bao Shu was obliging, mimicking whatever Meng Qianqian said.


One grown-up, one child, carefree and leisurely—those unaware might think they were out for a casual stroll. But in reality, she was heading to meet the Twelve Guards.


Lu Yuan had met with Yin Hu privately and learned a little about the Twelve Guards from him. At the time, Yin Hu had warned Lu Yuan that Meng Xiaojiu wouldn't easily gain the approval of the other ten guards.


In other words, the Twelve Guards might not necessarily support Meng Xiaojiu; in fact, they might even look for ways to eliminate her.
