The Qin Wind

To preserve one's life in a chaotic age, without seeking fame among the lords. Ji Xiyi, however, chose to do the exact opposite.

After transmigrating, Ji Xiyi became a princess of the Chu royal family, betrothed to the state of Qin. When she asked around, she learned that she was to marry King Ying Zheng of Qin. Thinking of the First Emperor of Qin as depicted in history books, with his beer belly and bulging eyes, raging like a son of heaven and leaving a million corpses in his wake, Ji Xiyi wanted no part of it.

Perhaps Heaven had heard her plea. Less than two months after the wedding procession set out, they were robbed. Luckily, she was quick-witted: she stripped off her wedding gown and jewelry and ran for it, soon escaping danger.

That very day, she met a man with a pair of mustaches above his lip who called himself Zheng Wen. He had clearly taken a liking to her, and Ji Xiyi had no choice but to follow him on the road.

It was only after they entered Xianyang that she realized who he really was, but by then it was too late.

Ying Zheng: "Miss Ji, why won't you come into the hall with me?"

Ji Xiyi: "I... Can I still leave now?"

The heroine is clever and grows wiser over time. She's a Libra and a face-con. The historical inspiration for her is Lady Ji, the Chu princess who became Qin Wang's consort before Ying Zheng became emperor. The male lead is Ying Zheng, the First Emperor through the ages. The leads are in love with each other and are soulmates.

P.S. From Chapter 22 onward, the story uses Jinjiang's anti-piracy measures. Readers who have purchased 50% of the story can read new chapters right away, while those who have purchased less than 50% can read them after 12 hours. So if you've bought a new chapter but can't see its contents, don't worry. You'll be able to read it normally after 12 hours. The 12-hour delay is meant to keep piracy sites from stealing my hard work so quickly. Thank you for understanding.
