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 fed the Hunting Eagle two pieces of dried meat.


Out of gratitude for the treat, the Hunting Eagle forgave the unpleasant man's sharp tongue.


Chen Long puzzledly remarked, "The Chief of Staff doesn't seem to be the type to let his guard down. I'm curious, how did Prime Minister Xun manage to relay the message?"


Meng Qianqian stroked the Hunting Eagle's feathers. "The pond is vast—there will always be slips through the net. For instance, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice who was bribed at the Xun Family yesterday, or even the government official who once passed a message to you."


Chen Long said, "The place I was detained back then was different from Prime Minister Xun's, but maybe you're right. With the Ministry of Justice being so huge, there are bound to be people he's bought."
