    A Republican-era novel. A cold-faced young marshal x a female healer. No cheat codes, no time travel, no spatial abilities. Everyone is carrying a heavy burden, even when it's unbearable. Not a wish-fulfillment story, not a tragic one. It's about a group of people, how they survive in a chaotic world. Cold-faced young marshal Pei Sijun x female healer Su Yi'an. He took up the Pei family army at fifteen, she supported the Ji'an Hall at nineteen. They met amidst the flames of war, and stayed together through the chaos. There's no push-and-pull of "I'm doing this for your own good," and he never holds back when he needs to speak up. The supporting characters aren't just tools. Fu Chenyu isn't evil for the sake of being evil, Gu Yanci isn't a rival for the sake of being a rival. Everyone has their own agenda, everyone wants to live. Even the smiling peddler at the alleyway has a day when he can't hold on any longer.
