Shen Anning was born in the border area. She was the only daughter of the Zhenbei Marquis. She was taught by the Seven Generals of Pingchuan. She was even better than her master with a carbine. She had been fighting on the battlefield since she was a child. Until half a year ago, the Jiang Kingdom and the Qi Kingdom ceased fighting for the first time in nearly a century. On the occasion of the Millennium Festival, an imperial edict came from Luojing, allowing the border soldiers and their families to return to Beijing to celebrate their birthdays.
The decree reached the border, and Shen Anning already understood most of it. The Holy Father was over fifty years old, the court was controlled by the Shao and Lu families, the position in the East Palace was vacant, and her father held military power. This was her first time in Beijing, and I am afraid it will also be the last time...

Fang Jinghuai was the prince that the Holy Father least wanted to mention. He had been poisoned since childhood and was in weak health. He rarely appeared in public. He held the scroll all day long and just wanted to escape from the imperial city that had trapped his mother all her life.
The Marquis of Zhenbei, who had been at the border for a long time, brought his family to Beijing and was summoned by the Holy Emperor. Fang Jinghuai took advantage of the situation and made a deal with his father in exchange for the freedom he wanted.

"There is no sorrow when we are apart, and no joy when we meet new friends. Meeting each other is fate. My surname is Fang, and I am the ninth in the family. Everyone in the family calls me Xiaojiu. Since I am destined to the two young masters, and the shopkeeper just gave me a jar of wine." Fang Xiaojiu tilted his head and glanced at Shen Anning, and said with a smile: "How about asking the young master for a glass of wine?"
Shen Anning glanced at him, "Master, do you often go to Changlefang? Just now you rescued the girl like this, is it an old acquaintance?"

Later, the entire Shen family was imprisoned for collaborating with the enemy and treason. Fang Jinghuai gave up the freedom he had gained to save Shen Anning.
Shen Anning, who had narrowly escaped death, was unwilling to accept the injustice done to her parents and stayed in Luojing to look for opportunities. At this time, Qi State launched another war...

It is an imaginary history, borrowing a little bit of the official system and costumes of the Tang Dynasty, and more private ones. The rest will be explained in the text.
