My name is Feng Jingyao, and I was born as the legitimate daughter of a merchant family. My family's business is entirely supported by my mother. The father was cowardly and incompetent. He took his concubine and stayed away from home for many years. The mother passed away shortly after, and the power of the family soon fell into the hands of the grandmother. At this time, the cowardly father returned home with his concubine, and with the tacit approval of the grandmother, he turned the concubine into his main wife. What was once the apple of her eye has become an orphan.
When she reached marriageable age, it was her stepmother who decided to betroth her to Marquis Pingnan, who was nearly fifty years old, just to ensure the longevity of the family business.
In desperation, he can only seek help from his mother's old friend, but he is involved in the troubled times and encounters Fu Jingshan who is a hostage.
He said that my features and eyes resembled his old friend, but he did not regard me as a substitute. Instead, he helped me with all his resources, opening up trade routes and avoiding obstacles for me. He helped me break free from the shackles, so I paved the way for him with a business empire. All the food, grass, weapons, gold, silver and jewels were all for him to use to help him join forces with his allies to conquer the Yan Kingdom and compete in the world.
Some people say that I am his substitute for Bai Yueguang, which is ridiculous! I, Feng Jingyao, have never been in anyone's shadow. With my own ability, I am as rich as anyone in the country. I can even stand side by side with him, control the mountains and rivers for thousands of miles, and live the most dazzling life!
