She went to war in her husband’s name, only to fall for an enemy general.
In her previous life, he was a renowned dual-spear general who fought bloody battles and died on the battlefield.
In this life, she was reborn as a delicate young lady from a civil official’s family, bound by an engagement and promised to the frail heir of a military clan.
Every man in the Cheng family had fallen on the battlefield. Only one remained: a sickly only son who coughed blood.
Enemies threatened from without, while court factions schemed within. The Cheng family stood on the brink of ruin, and the nation teetered on the edge.
“I’ll go in your place.”
She traded her wedding dress for armor, her slender hands gripping a spear.
Amid the crowd’s jeers, the “frail Cheng Xu” set out for the northern frontier.
From a “sickly weakling” mocked by all to the “Jade-Faced Rakshasa” who struck terror into the enemy,
she upheld the last glory of the military clan as a woman, through blood and fire.
Until she met him: the man who made her forget her past and present lives, and long only to be Su Wan’er again.
But she was “Cheng Xu,” someone else’s betrothed, a “man” who had gone to war under her husband’s name.
