Gu Yuming clearly remembered being marched to the execution ground with all forty-some members of the Gu family and beheaded. The chill of the executioner’s blade against her neck and the shiver of fear in her heart had yet to fade. So how could she now be lying safe and sound in a sickbed, recuperating? The maidservant attending her even called her “Second Young Master,” though she was a woman.
Well, in this new life, she had a bold aunt who passed her daughter off as a son and recklessly sent this pretend boy down the path of officialdom. Perhaps Heaven had given her another chance so she could clear the Gu family’s name under the identity of Liu Yu.
Fan Chenxia, the eldest princess’s son, had both good looks and talent, making him a prize sought after by every prince. But he was afflicted with a strange poison, and no one knew who was behind it. Since everyone praised Lord Liu for solving cases with uncanny skill, why not bring him into the fold?
A very nice book with a compact and clear storyline.
It's beautiful, the ending is perfect
