Synopsis

In the late Ming and early Qing, young Li Tong is born into a martial arts family and watches his parents get killed by their sworn enemy. After escaping, he stumbles into a cave and learns peerless martial arts. He becomes a chivalrous hero, joins the resistance against the Jin, launches surprise attacks on their soldiers, defends his homeland, and avenges his parents. Later, Li Tong marries Wanyan Xue, and they have a daughter, Nianxue. He retires to a small town and teaches her martial arts. When Nianxue grows up, she enters the imperial court to serve her country. Skilled in martial arts and military strategy, she catches the eye of the crown prince, who serves in the same army camp. But Nianxue is disguised as a man, and the crown prince has no idea she is a woman, leading to all kinds of comic misunderstandings. Eventually, he discovers the truth during a battle. By then, however, a matchmaker has introduced him to a princess from a neighboring kingdom, and he and Nianxue become embroiled in all sorts of open and covert rivalries. In the end, the crown prince and Nianxue marry, while Li Tong dies on the battlefield. My story has just been released. You’re welcome to read it on Tomato Novel. I hope you’ll enjoy it. Your support motivates me to write, and I’ll do my best to tell every story well.

Traditional Eastern Fantasy Novels

I'm looking for a very traditional Eastern fantasy novel. The setting was probably the Spring and Autumn or Warring States period. The heroine was a princess of the Zhou dynasty, and I can't remember the hero's name. They met while cultivating at an academy. The feudal states were powerful while the Zhou dynasty was in decline. She didn't confess her feelings because she was afraid of dragging him down.
