(Reading guide: Strong heroine, weaker hero, light ensemble cast)

A sorcerer once prophesied that the Great Jin dynasty would produce a female emperor. To avert the threat, nearly every baby girl born that year was slaughtered.

Only the Huo family, a clan of generals, managed to conceal their sole surviving daughter by pretending she was a boy.

Huo Wuyi was raised as a man. She won repeated victories on the western frontier, earning the rank of junior general and striking fear into the borderlands. After the late emperor died, the prophecy gradually faded from memory. But the Huo family's power had become a threat to the throne, and when the new emperor ascended, an imperial decree of betrothal was issued.

Who could have guessed that just as the decree arrived, news that “the Huo family's second son is actually a woman” would reach the capital?

The new emperor turned his gaze to the Grand Tutor, a powerful official not yet twenty-five, and declared:

The Huo family's second daughter is to be married to the Grand Tutor.

One was a female general who had survived countless battles and killed without mercy; the other was the foremost scholar-official, who could command the court with a plan and shape the world with his brush.

When they first met:

Bai Yichen: “She's nothing but a brute from the frontier.”

Huo Wuyi: “Tsk, bookworms are useless!”

Six months later:

After someone files a complaint against Bai Yichen in court, he returns home and leans against his wife's shoulder. “My wife, they're picking on me.”

General Huo rolls up her sleeves. “Who dares lay a hand on my husband?”
