Qi Qian, the female general of Beijiang and Lord of Sixteen Cities, learned in her first life by chance that her fate was exactly as written in a storybook: she would die in battle at Sixteen Cities.
Perhaps Heaven thought such an ending too cruel for Qi Qian, and gave her another chance. By a twist of fate, the storybook from her previous life reappeared alongside her. What is more, its story can change according to her actions.
Reborn, Qi Qian can no longer sit back and wait for her fate. She will defy Heaven and change it. Along the way, the tangled love and hatred she could never sever in her previous life will surface one by one...
The mad original male lead grabs the hem of Qi Qian's clothes and snarls a threat: "I advise you not to even think about doing anything to Mu Tianrou. A single strand of her hair is worth more than the millions of hearts of yours buried in the dust."
Qi Qian ignores him.
The neighboring kingdom's hostage openly provokes them in court: "Such a mighty nation as Beijiang, and not one person dares to lead an army into battle?"
Qi Qian dons her light armor and wields her Liuhua sword, fighting for seven days. Only after hanging the enemy general's head on the city gate does she invite the hostage to take a closer look.
The two nations are at war, their armies clashing, and desperately in need of provisions. Yet the court sends them what little moldy rice it has. Exhausted in body and mind, with life and death hanging in the balance, the military strategist leads eight hundred elite soldiers to fight their way through and bring her home.
"Jin Yan, you are Beijiang's greatest blessing."
Protecting the country and its people, or pursuing love: how can she have both?
"If Heaven gave me a thousand million chances to start over, I would make the same choice a thousand million times."
