A Beauty Like a Famous General (Reborn)

Since ancient times, beauty and great generals have been spared the sight of their hair turning white.

(Blurb 1)

Wei Hanzhang was a young general whose fame resounded throughout the land. He was ennobled for his military achievements at the age of twenty, hailed as a god of war by everyone in Chang'an. Sadly, his life was cut short, and he fell in battle at twenty-four.

A hero passed away before he could marry.

The burden of the entire Wei household fell on the shoulders of Wei Hanzhang's widowed sister-in-law.

She was a pitiful woman too. She had married into the Wei family after his elder brother died. Out of consideration for his loyal subject, the emperor issued an extraordinary decree, locking an innocent woman away in the family residence.

Everyone in the land knew that his sister-in-law was chaste.

But the way the renowned young general Wei Hanzhang looked at her was anything but innocent.

Li Muzhen was a princess who had fallen out of favor.

Her father, the emperor, died of illness, and her mother followed him in death. The days when she had been the center of everyone's attention vanished like smoke, and she had no choice but to eke out a living under the new emperor.

Unfortunately, her imperial younger brother hated her to the core.

He personally bestowed her upon a dead man, trapping her in the family residence under the pretext of showing consideration for a loyal subject. Fortunately, the Wei family still had a backbone. As long as her younger brother-in-law Wei Hanzhang remained healthy, the old, the young, and the women could be kept safe.

Li Muzhen was always waiting for Wei Hanzhang to return victorious. Then, on the day she turned twenty-two, news came from the border that Wei Hanzhang had died.

The whole empire mourned, and people everywhere wore white mourning clothes.

Only Li Muzhen wore red as she leapt from the city wall of the capital.

If she could not marry him in life, then she would follow him in death.

Beauty follows the great general, and neither shall grow old in this world.
