Reborn Female General: Win His Heart After Taking His Life

[Reborn + strong heroine + political scheming + secret identities + woman disguises herself as a man + true and fake heiress + palace and household intrigue] Lin Yao was a battle-hardened female general who guarded the frontier and had won countless victories. But on her wedding night, her fiancé colluded with the cousin she trusted most. They drugged her, flayed and dismembered her, then burned her alive. They were so ruthless that they also wiped out her entire family.

Reborn into a new life, Lin Yao became a poor farmer's daughter with parents who had both died. Her grandparents played favorites, valued boys over girls, and did everything they could to harm her. She fought them at every turn and exposed their false, hypocritical nature.

To clear her name, Lin Yao infiltrated a military camp to investigate the truth. There, she unexpectedly ran into her archenemy, Gu Yu'an. Disguised as a man, she managed to fool everyone, but accidentally became the one person he couldn't forget.

Recently, two major rumors had been spreading through the capital. The first was that Gu Yu'an, heir to the Prince of Dingyuan and notorious for his cruelty and ruthlessness, had fallen in love and was now completely devoted to her, caring for her tenderly. The second was that the family of the Censor-in-Chief had finally found their long-lost daughter. Apparently, the girl had grown up in the countryside and was crude and shallow, completely unfit for polite society.

The people were intensely curious about the two women, and even paid a fortune for gossip.

At a banquet, Lin Yao, who was rumored to be frail and delicate, was forced to perform.

With a gentle tap of her pale, slender hand,

she smashed twenty bricks into pieces.

Lin Yao coyly covered her mouth with a handkerchief and gave a few soft coughs. “I'm afraid my humble performance was nothing special.”

Everyone: ...

Gu Yu'an lovingly held her delicate hand. “Let me blow on it, Yao Yao, and it won't hurt anymore.”

Everyone: ?!!
