I am Murong Di, a female general who was victorious in all battles in Shangqiu. On the day of her victory, she was given poisoned wine by her most trusted lieutenant Li Zhong.
He smiled ferociously as he cut off my meridians: "Your father thinks your achievements are so great that he wants to use your life to pave the way for his son."
On the Lingchi stage, I counted the severe pain of 53 cuts of flesh and blood on my body, and died in the July snow.
When she opened her eyes again, she turned out to be Su Ziyue, the concubine who drowned in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Looking at the scarred face in the bronze mirror, I crushed the dressing box.
"Dad, Li Zhong... You used 53 knives to teach me how to understand——"
"The sharpest knife in the world turns out to be sharpened with human blood."
