The Eldest Daughter Returns, Her Name Crowning the Capital

A wrongful verdict wipes out the entire Yan family. Waking from a dream, Yan Xiwei is drenched in cold sweat and vows to change that ending.

After barely escaping the threat of her family's extermination, she is framed by the Third and Fourth Branches working together, and her fiancé, Song Lian, breaks off their engagement. She casts aside the reserve expected of a young lady, leaves her chambers to show herself in public, gallops on horseback, and exchanges three slaps of the hand with Song Lian in the street. From then on, they owe each other nothing, and each is free to marry as they please.

Everyone says the eldest daughter of the Yan family flouts a woman's virtue and will never marry. Who could have guessed that Qi Rong, heir to the Marquis of Zhennan, would prepare all the betrothal gifts and formalities and come to her door to propose?

Faced with the enemy who took her life with his own hands in her dream, what will Yan Xiwei choose...?
