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

Lu Yuan left Zhaoming Palace when a cold, indifferent voice sounded above his head: "Why didn't you just tell the Supreme Emperor who you suspect?"


Lu Yuan sneered and looked at the person standing on the tree branch: "Don't you have someone you suspect too? Why don't you go in and say it?"


Chen Long replied expressionlessly: "Why would I say something without evidence?"


Lu Yuan curled his lips into a smile: "You won't say it, but want me to?"


Lu Yuan asked: "Who sent you into the palace?"


Chen Long answered truthfully: "The Prime Minister."


Lu Yuan mocked: "And you claim you're not one of the Prime Minister's spies?"


Chen Long said: "I don't need to explain myself to you."


Lu Yuan replied playfully: "Alright, go ahead and report me."


Yu Zichuan appeared and, staring at Chen Long's departing figure, asked: "Should we kill him?"


Lu Yuan glanced at him: "You talk as if you could pull it off."
