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

Meng Qianqian snapped to her senses upon hearing this.  


She propped herself up with her hands and suspiciously eyed the dark circles under his eyes. "Did you stay up all night? Sitting here the whole time? Just to… collect a 'debt'? Aren't you… late for court?"  


Lu Yuan stubbornly declared, "So why won't you hurry up and pay your debt?"  


All the shock of Meng Qianqian's life had been used up this morning.  


Fifteen minutes later, Lu Yuan stepped out of the room, looking refreshed.  


"Good morning, young master!" Nanny Wan greeted him warmly. "The autumn and winter weather is dry, don't forget to apply lip balm."  


Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow. "I already did—three times!"  


Meng Qianqian covered her eyes, feeling like all the face she had ever saved in her life had been lost that very morning.
