Ye Lan, the CEO of a modern conglomerate, suddenly died at a victory banquet and woke up in another body: Li Wa, Yue Fei’s widow. She opened her eyes to a desperate situation in an exile camp in Lingnan. Branded a lowborn outcast and surrounded by barren, miasma-ridden land, she also had a secret order from the capital hanging over her head: “Await further instructions.”
With the bloodline of Shennong in one hand and a mysterious treasure basin in the other, she grew golden waves of millet in dead red soil, making a bold pledge that shook the entire camp.
She lulled the spies into a false sense of security, silenced the schemers, and rallied refugees into an army. Grain by grain, person by person, she gathered supplies and followers, all so she could raise her young son, Yue Lei, into a god of war who could protect the Yue family and clear the name of those wronged at the Storm Pavilion.
She cast aside foolish loyalty and seized military power. In these chaotic times, the only way to survive was to hold on to the food and people in her own hands.
