After Ten Years at War, I Returned to the Capital and Found My Daughter Had Been Replaced

After spending ten years eating sand on the frontier, I finally routed the Xiongnu and returned to court in triumph. But among the crowds there to greet me were all the familiar faces, except for my daughter, He Jin Zhao. I hurriedly pulled my son aside and asked him where she was. He pointed to the girl beside him and said she was my daughter. The girl was wearing the shimmering silk I had bought for my daughter, with the phoenix-tail hairpin I had made for her tucked into her hair. But I could tell at a glance that she was not Jin Zhao. What a joke. After ten years away, did they really think I wouldn't recognize my own daughter? So I grabbed the girl by the neck and hauled her up, demanding of everyone, “Where is my daughter? Where is my Jin Zhao?”
