Jiang Yue, radiant and sharp-witted mistress of the jianghu's foremost intelligence network, VS Lin Yun, a steady and devoted young general with a mature air
The white-bearded Daoist swept his horsetail whisk, and the mist before Jiang Yue's eyes cleared. At last, she saw her past life: Lin Yun had died on the battlefield, a victim of the emperor's suspicions and a powerful minister's schemes. To avenge him, she had plotted at every turn and toppled the imperial court, leaving the realm shattered and a century of war in her wake. Now, the circumstances of her present life were unfolding just as they had before...
"The day the bell rings is when cause and consequence continue their course..."
Jiang Yue slowly awoke from her dream. Birds sang sweetly outside the window. It was already morning. She turned to look at Lin Yun, his sleeping face peaceful and handsome as jade beside her. In her previous life, this man had sat by the dim candlelight, carefully carving talismans for peace all over the golden bell, their token of love.
No matter what, I will never let you be framed and die unjustly in this life!
Years later, on a hill outside the city.
After the white-bearded Daoist enlightened him, memories of Lin Yun's past life flooded into his mind. The heart-piercing pain made the veins on his forehead bulge, and he dropped to one knee. As soon as he recovered, he turned and galloped back to his residence. The moment he entered the rear courtyard, he saw Jiang Yue standing on the small bridge, bathed in moonlight.
Their eyes met.
Lin Yun strode forward and held Jiang Yue tight. "Ling'er, with the bright moon hanging high above us, I, Lin Yun, swear that I will do everything in my power to return alive. I will never leave you to walk this world alone..."
