"When you cast me aside, did you ever imagine that this realm would one day tremble in my grasp?"
Seventeen years ago, a carefully planned conspiracy unfolded in the imperial palace of Xifeng.
When the empress went into labor, the auspicious phoenix sign that appeared at the birth of the legitimate eldest princess was turned into a death sentence by the words, "A celestial omen has appeared. She must be a bringer of calamity!"
Seventeen years later, deep in the mist-shrouded mountains of Fengqi.
Nejia stood with her sword in hand, its point aimed toward a world she seemed ready to command.
She was skilled in both military strategy and commerce, and controlled border trade, yet she had no idea she was the legitimate eldest princess of Xifeng, the one who had supposedly "died in infancy."
Three cities had been lost in succession, corrupt officials infested the court, and her younger brother, the rightful heir appointed crown prince, struggled at every turn.
When the envoys knelt before her, weeping as they begged, "Princess, return to court,"
Nejia toyed with the border commander's tiger tally, the corner of her lips curling coldly.
"You treated me like dirt back then. Now... I want every inch of this vast realm to bow before me and submit."
The junior martial uncle who had protected her since childhood said, "I only wish to guard this prosperous age by your side and see you smile."
This is a work that attempts to combine elements of palace intrigue, martial arts, and growth. The heroine Nejia counterattacks from an abandoned baby to a powerful boss, and at the same time takes care of the green tea girl and the villain of Beiyou. The male protagonist, Xu Chen, looks cold on the outside, but is a "wife-protecting maniac" behind the scenes. The two team up to start a business and spread the dog food. Although my work contains many artistic touches on details such as medical skills and martial arts, I hope to present a story about love and perseverance to readers. If you can be touched for a moment while reading, it is the greatest encouragement to the author. (The medical knowledge and martial arts moves involved in the book are all fictitious, and readers are advised to take this for granted)
