Ten years of iron armor wrapped in red makeup, thousands of miles of yellow sand burying the fragrance of bones.
The illustrious military exploits I earned by joining the army for my father became a stepping stone for our family's wealth.
On the day I faked my death and returned to Beijing, my father said that I was the cause of my crime of deceiving the king, my mother said that the eldest daughter should accept her fate, and my younger brother advised me to be grateful to my adopted sister who took away my identity.
They hold the first-class Duke's palace that I bought with my life, live in the country under my protection, and even their adopted sister wants to marry into the East Palace based on my military merit.
It wasn't until King Jun said "It doesn't look like it" that they became afraid.
The cup of gentle poisonous wine at the birthday party left me with a broken throat, broken fingers, and useless martial arts. It turned out that what they wanted was never for me to live, but for my military skills to be completely "dead".
I was not buried in the yellow sand, but my loved ones wanted me to crush my bones and spread my ashes.
When I opened my eyes again, I was still standing in front of the Duke's Mansion, dressed in civilian clothes and covered with devastation.
This time, I don't look forward to reunion or family ties.
Do you want to be rich? I then lifted up this heaven-shattering glory.
Do you want military glory? In front of the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty, I broke through these ten years of hardship.
The adopted sister wants to marry the prince? First ask me if the rightful owner will answer.
Doesn't King Jun think it doesn't look like it? I stood in front of him and let him see who was the "brother" who fought side by side in blood back then.
The crime of deceiving the emperor? What I protect is the rivers and mountains of Dajing, and the lights of thousands of families. What crime is there?
I want you to pay back what you owe me thousands of times!
In this life, the only one who survives the flash of swords and shadows will be me - the real general who governs the country!
