In the eleventh year of Yong'an, the Eastern Sea defenses fell.
The door to the Dongyi dungeon swung open. Someone gripped Chu Nanmo's chin hard. "You survived the poison again. What a monster."
"Heh. You lost to me."
The Dongyi man abruptly clamped a hand around Chu Nanmo's throat. "You've killed countless members of my clan. By rights, I should tear you limb from limb, but you're a perfect specimen for testing poison... Now that cunning Daoist has captured our prince to trade for you, but he never said he needed you alive."
The poison rampaged through Chu Nanmo's body. She lifted her chin slightly, her pale face set in defiant stubbornness. "Don't worry. Even if I die, I'll make sure your prince dies with me."
In the ninth year of Yong'an, she was reborn. Back then, she was still the brilliant and illustrious commandery princess. She kept her talents hidden and planned every move carefully, all to prevent the war in the Eastern Sea two years later.
With one hand on her sword, she reached across the table and lifted Qin Zheng's chin. "Lord Qin, do you know that embezzling military funds is a crime punishable by the execution of your entire family?"
The sword pressed against the fat beneath Qin Zheng's chin. Trembling, he roared, "Chu Nanmo! I'm your uncle by marriage!"
Chu Nanmo's almond-shaped eyes curved slightly, their depths glacial. "And who's denying it?"
What Chu Nanmo hadn't expected was that the only thing to change in this life would be her former fiance, who had once devoted himself entirely to refining elixirs and cultivating immortality.
"Lord Song, have you given up on cultivating immortality?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
"Because the path to immortality can't save the woman I love."
