My completed novel "Test Subject" is on my profile.
As the most beloved little princess of the Great Yu Dynasty, Cui Heng lived a pampered life for eighteen years.
But in a single night, her country fell and her family was destroyed. First her parents were brutally killed, then she learned that her older sister Cui Zheng had gone missing. Just as she was drowning in grief, a palace maid gave her life to help Cui Heng escape.
Fleeing for a thousand li, Cui Heng and her companions ventured deep into Jingzhou to find her missing sister and the troops, provisions, and funds her mother had hidden. She had hoped to borrow troops and make a comeback, but gradually discovered that the county magistrate was lining his own pockets and the provincial governor was cozying up to everyone. In short, not one of them was any good!
Cui Heng gave a cold laugh and decided to turn their own power against them. They were just a pack of yapping curs, so why not set them against one another? But before she could establish herself, the pursuers caught up again.
At the critical moment, Cui Zheng followed the clues Cui Heng had left behind, drove off the pursuers, and seized the city.
At last, the sisters were reunited. But with the empire under new rulers and the people unsettled, the two reached an understanding and resolved to raise an army, punish the traitors, and reclaim the realm that should have been theirs.
She looked at the companions following behind her. This time, she would not run!
