[This story won't be updated for a while. I'm stopping after volume one. I still haven't sorted out volume two, so it's on hiatus.
[Revised volume one. I mainly fixed some details at the beginning and replaced the whole thing. Volume two still hasn't begun.]
The first time they met, the young prince kowtowed to Xiaoyue three times, and it became the greatest humiliation of his life.
It truly was humiliating. After all, for the rest of his life, he could never again hold his head high in front of his wife.
When Zhu Qiyuan was young and reckless, he let loose after drinking and declared, "If I'm going to marry, I'll marry the most beautiful woman in the world, a peerless beauty whose looks could make fish forget to swim and geese forget to fly, the moon hide and flowers blush;"
The heroine is disfigured
"...As for talent, she should be peerless in her generation, comparable to Wenji and Ban Zhao;"
The heroine can barely read
"...And her temperament should at least match that of Empress Dowager Dou, so that her virtue will be remembered for generations."
The heroine: I'll smash your damn head in
The many fantasies of youth are nothing compared to actually meeting you.
Please note:
1. Master and disciple relationship, mistaken identity and switched-at-birth trope, a touch of wuxia, BG, one-on-one romance. Neither lead is the first person the other has liked, but they are each other's first love.
2. The heroine has flaws in her appearance. If you can't accept that, imagine Jiang Qinqin's version of Second Dream. [Showing my age, haha.]
3. The heroine is invincible under heaven for no other reason than that she is a born prodigy.
4. Inspired by the Ming dynasty, but not historical fiction. No fact-checking needed. It's a fictional setting, not all fluff, happy ending.
5. The main story is the focus. Volume two is coming along slowly, so updates are irregular.
6. Although the story has internal energy and martial arts, please don't believe in qigong.
7. The heroine has a difficult, rather tragic fate, but this isn't a story about tormenting the protagonist. It's a coming-of-age story, and I firmly believe I'm writing a wish-fulfillment power fantasy!
8. There are lots of little continuity bugs. I revise as I write, usually when updating. I'll mention major changes; otherwise, they're minor details and you don't need to reread.
9. The original title was Xiaoyue. It has been changed to The Life of a Martial Arts Alliance Leader Who Failed at Family Feuds. The title has to be long, long, long, long!

Why do you want me to read this article late at night?
This abusive heroine is so cruel that I want to give her a big sip
He is just a monk voluntarily, compared to the disfigurement and almost death of the heroine.
Xiaoyue didn't show them the scars, and ran away after treating the person + Liu still sold people into exile, not murder and execution, so it's possible that he didn't tell them in the end.
If this is the case, the ending of the Capital Volume is not so much based on the inference of each person's character, but rather on the inversion of the subsequent plot.
Once it is revealed, the Ruan family, especially the mother, will be even more eager for the heroine to stay at home to compensate. Xiaoyue will find it difficult to refuse them, and will be unable to leave the capital and start a new world.
But it's still hard to accept the unspoken ending. The real daughter has indeed been replaced, but is Xiaoyue the real daughter? The Liu family who was able to resist has been exiled, and this suspicion still remains in the heroine's family. They had no way of judging and could only believe in the character shown by Xiaoyue's two life-saving graces.
Xiaoyue forgave Mother Liu understandingly, but did not give her conscious mother a chance to communicate properly. All she gave was a rhetoric full of loopholes, but she asked people to believe her. After hearing that Mrs. Ying was terminally ill because of her, it would be too willful for her to go away after being cured. In this ending, everyone's actions are quite convincing, but Xiaoyue's is not so convincing. It depends on how the author handles it later.
Qiu Ming knew that he was bending the law for personal gain and setting up a VIP prison to entertain his sweetheart's grandmother. The heroine and Ruan Jiazhen recognized Liu's abduction, attempted murder, fraud and other evil deeds. The heroine and the Ying family almost died, so they only sentenced her to exile. . . It's so frustrating. . .
With tears in my eyes, can I wait until the day of the next update?
Just left like this? At least make it clear to your mother, it's obvious that you are really close to her. .
Madam! ! ! ! I lie down again, woo woo woo
The heroine is so miserable. Why is she leaving
From the heroine's point of view, she feels that she has not received any real love from her mother. But is it true that the heroine thinks she has concealed her kindness from her mother?
The hostess can't be stimulated anymore, and I don't want Xiaoyue to be hurt again. Their separation is the best ending. Ying lost her daughter for 16 years and misunderstood her twice. As a bystander of the story, knowing that she was right, I couldn't help but want to hate her. Xiaoyue let it go. Maybe children who have lacked love since childhood will cherish this hard-won warmth. I hope that other people in the Hou family will finally understand the truth of the matter. Ying's memory will be lost. It is the best ending for everyone to never see each other again.
