Has Lord Xiao Jiang Fallen Apart Today?

My other novel, My Name Is the Imperial Attendant, is currently updating. Please add it to your library! -- Hua Zai, the second-in-command of Tianhu Mountain, is ordered to come to the capital to study military strategy for six months. Her tutor is Lord Xiao Jiang, Jiang Ancheng, an important minister at court. Jiang Ancheng is incredibly strict with her. The house rules he sets for her could stretch around the world. No meat, no alcohol, no gambling, no fighting, no extortion... In short, he keeps a tight rein on the bandit skills she spent nineteen years honing. Hua Zai roars, "If I don't learn the real art of war in six months, I'll rip off your door, burn down your house, and burn you with it! Hmph!" Later... Hua Zai wants meat. Jiang Ancheng: "Sure. Roast lamb or grilled beef?" Hua Zai wants to gamble. Jiang Ancheng: "Sure. I'll go with you." Hua Zai wants a drink. Jiang Ancheng: "Sure, but you can only drink with me." Hua Zai wants to return to her old ways and get back into kidnapping and extortion. Jiang Ancheng: "No. There are plenty of other fun things to do in life. For instance, you can go shut the doors and windows now, and we can do something else." A story about a man who sets out to tame a woman, only to end up giving himself over to her instead. One-on-one, happy ending. Male lead: A refined nobleman equally skilled in letters and arms. He can handle court and battlefield, and even cook. A must-have for home and travel, and well worth having. Female lead: A petite girl whose strength is wildly at odds with her looks. A bandit queen, expert in the whole kidnapping-and-extortion business. Guaranteed to satisfy. Synopsis for The Great General Keeps Urging Me to Improve I As a veterinarian, Ali spends her days cuddling cats, dogs, horses, birds, and anything else she can cuddle. She has no other dreams in life. She only wants to stay with her cats, dogs, horses, and birds forever, never to part. Unfortunately, disaster strikes. An official summons drafts Ali into the army as a medic. Ali: !!! Good heavens, she only knows how to cuddle animals, not people... Ahem, treat people! General Feng Xuan: "It's all right. Study hard, and I'll send you to the Imperial Medical Bureau in a year." II In his previous life, Feng Xuan defended the nation and its borders with unwavering loyalty, only to end up abandoned by everyone and pierced by a thousand arrows. As he lay dying, only one female physician stayed by his side, spreading her arms in a futile attempt to shield him from the rain of arrows. The last thing he saw in this world was her fearless figure, refusing to turn back. She was the final ray of light he saw before falling into darkness. Reborn, he intends to find the culprit who brought about his death, and the physician who risked everything to protect him. He knows she was madly in love with him, but he has no interest in romance. As repayment, he can make the dream she failed to realize in her previous life come true: entering the Imperial Medical Bureau. Ali (horrified): "Why would I want to enter the Imperial Medical Bureau?" Feng Xuan: "Because you want to." Ali (ten times more horrified): "No, no, no, General, you must have it wrong. I've never once wanted to enter the Imperial Medical Bureau. I just want to go home. Xiongzhuang, Badao, and Wei Feng are waiting for me there." Feng Xuan: "..." Who would have thought you were this kind of physician... You have three men at home! Then what was all that devotion to me in your previous life about? Was it fake?! Bonus scene: Later, Ali can take it no longer and gathers her courage. "General, if you really must repay me, could we do it another way?" Feng Xuan looks at her. If she doesn't want her dream, then she must want him. Very well, he'll grant her wish. So he nods and says solemnly, "Then so be it." "Thank you, General!" Ali cheers, then picks up her little bundle and happily heads home. Feng Xuan: "…" Feng Xuan: "!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" One-on-one, happy ending. Sweet and heartwarming. A loving couple. Theme: A moment can last forever
