Gu Qingli, the only daughter of the Changsheng General's household, learned martial arts from her father as a child. After he died in battle and the army's command was taken from their family, Gu Qingli never picked up a spear again, obediently settling into the life of a sheltered young lady.
At the royal hunting grounds, the Third Princess, Chu Xihe, was being bullied by a group of servants. She kept her head turned aside and said nothing, but a trace of resentment shone in her eyes.
Gu Qingli saw the resentment and restraint in Chu Xihe's eyes and stepped in to help her.
As they gradually grew close, Gu Qingli discovered that this Third Princess, who never showed herself in public, had a remarkable talent for governing. Yet the Qinghe Dynasty had always exalted men above women.
For the people of Qinghe, and for the princess, Gu Qingli picked up her spear again, donned her armor, and went to war.
Chu Xihe, the Third Princess of the Qinghe Dynasty, had a mother of low status and had never been valued as a child. She had suffered countless acts of abuse.
By chance, she met the steward of the palace library and devoured histories and literature. In her heart, she had a world of her own.
Meeting Gu Qingli by chance, the woman she had admired since childhood, made her want to draw closer to her.
When she learned that Gu Qingli had volunteered to go to war, Chu Xihe was both excited and anxious. That bright, free-spirited woman could take the field and fight just like a man, but blades had no eyes on the battlefield. Would she return safely?
From then on, she prayed to the Bodhisattva every day for Gu Qingli's safety.
A little scene
Gu Qingli leaned close, lifting the beauty's chin with a finger as she lay on the bed. A hint of possessiveness filled her eyes.
"My beauty, do you like the gift this general gave you?"
The beauty's eyes shimmered, a blush rising on her fair cheeks as a beguiling smile curved her lips.
"If this palace says she likes it, will the general be satisfied?"
As the words fell, a warm sensation touched Gu Qingli's lips. She froze for a moment, then leaned forward and pressed the beauty down.
