At fifteen, Su Lingyuan was sent away from the capital.
Everyone said the legitimate daughter of the Chancellor had been born with a frail constitution and would not live more than a few years.
Seven years later, she returned.
On the day she arrived back in the capital, Prince Regent Xiao Jue steadied her lurching carriage with his own hands.
In that instant, he saw the sleeve of the dying woman twitch slightly.
As if she were hiding a knife.
Poisonous plots simmered in the inner residence, turmoil stirred at court, and rival factions took turns scheming against her.
Beneath her sickly exterior, she quietly laid her plans from the shadows.
Everyone blamed the Prince Regent for his ruthless methods.
Only Xiao Jue knew that the sharpness hidden beneath her delicate facade was the most breathtaking thing of all.
This book is really good to read, especially when it describes Lu Bu's hundreds of rounds of battle with Sun Wukong for Diao Chan, but Xue Baochai is really too strong. If Noah hadn't used an outer ring + Noxian guillotine, this wave of M4 six times strafing would have killed him. But I am more concerned about what Zhuge Liang said to the 108 monkeys in Huaguoshan, "Young man is proud, don't show off in front of your brother Liang", which shows Zhuge Liang's indignation at the monkeys who knocked him to death with three sticks. All in all, this book has an interesting plot, a clear system, and many foreshadowings. The fighting scenes feel like you are there, and the character descriptions are spot on!
