The Phoenix Returns: The Princess Who Guards the Nation Can Speak with Spirits

She was Su Yu, a leading forensic pathologist of the twenty-first century. After someone tried to murder her, her soul entered the body of a “dead woman” who had been poisoned in a coffin: Chu Minghuang, the Grand Princess of Great Liang and Defender of the Realm.

From then on, she became Chu Minghuang and vowed to seek justice for both the living and the dead.

On the day of her “seventh-day memorial,” Chu Minghuang returned to the capital in white, to attend her own funeral.

He was a princely heir who commanded the Northern Frontier's iron cavalry, decisive and ruthless.

A single tiger tally bound the two of them together.

Everyone thought they were allies of convenience, each using the other to get what they wanted.

The man who was usually so cold and curt dropped to one knee before her.

“The Northern Frontier army kneels to no emperor. It kneels only to you.”
