Mu Weiyun received a letter that summoned her back to the heart of the storm after ten years in exile. But when she entered the palace, all she found was the letter writer's corpse. The gates slammed shut. From the first death onward, after every murder, the dead would push her higher and higher.
Thus, she glimpsed the secrets behind the heavens, raised the torch of war, and finally met her downfall.
Apricot blossoms cast sparse shadows, a flute played through the night. More than twenty years passed like a dream. For years, Zhu Hewen often drew his treasured sword, its edge clear as water. In a daze, he seemed to meet her unyielding gaze once more.

[New Novel Promotion]
"Dust on Paper," an ancient court-intrigue romance. It continues the old tales of Penglai, but can be read as a standalone.
Blurb:
Unless something unexpected happens, Rong Silin will have a happy life. From a beloved princess to a beloved Grand Princess, she will live quietly and be casually mentioned in a corner of the history books alongside her elder brother.
But the Crown Prince's death lays bare all her ambition.
Only then does history get the chance to learn that she yearns for power, change, and blood.
At the Crown Prince's coffin, everyone urges her to accept her loss. Only Liu Ji is the first to say, "I will help you."
Rong Silin raises her eyes and sees their shared, bloodthirsty resolve.
An outwardly wild, inwardly proper reformer male lead × an ambitious politician female lead
Warnings:
1. Neither lead is a "good person" in the traditional sense.
2. The court and its politics are fictional, with an official system based on the Sui, Tang, and Five Dynasties. Some worldbuilding is original!
Theme: Do what is right, even if it costs you your life.
I didn't expect it to be about me, hahaha. It's an honor to witness the beginning and end of a story as a bystander. One year is not too much, and it is not long. The narrative world of Penglai is very large, but the story is also very simple. It can even be summarized briefly as "Girl's Enlightenment". However, people big and small along the way do not serve the protagonist. They also have their own ideas and missions. Apart from Weiyun, my favorite is Mu Chen, who became famous at a young age and became a general, but in the end even the cause of his death was unknown; Jia Lingyi's sacrifice is always uncomfortable. As for Weiyun's ending, I was surprised that in the end I didn't feel any regret but felt relieved. She did it. Although there were bumps along the way and she sacrificed everything, it was a result that satisfied her. She could leave with peace of mind instead of dying with unwillingness and pain. In three years, a smart and agile girl suffered from difficulty sleeping and eating, suffered from injuries and illnesses one after another, and finally fell into silence. It was difficult to accept the end. In just three years, a life was lost like this. But how can a life of great achievements be washed away by regrets over and over again? The youthful spirit and lack of regrets that one feels are bound to have no shirking responsibility touched me even more. These things are only done by young girls, and can only be done by young girls. I rarely mentioned Weiyun in my previous reviews, but Weiyun is my favorite character in this book. She is gentle and tough. I admire her, envy her, admire her, and feel sorry for her. She really rarely encountered strong support and general understanding along the way (thank you Lao Zhu, you have always stood by her side gently and firmly), so Weiyun, you have really worked hard. I hope you will always be that wanton and happy young knight! In fact, I am a very lazy and impatient person, but I am very happy that I did not run away midway due to various reasons, so that I can be a slut from time to time, and finally see the ending of the story. No matter who you are, you have finally read this and read my ridiculous and illogical content. Thank you for your hard work! I sincerely hope that the author can continue writing. Maybe there are very few people watching now, and there seems to be no splash, but if you don't write, there will never be splash. I believe in you and your strength, come on, come on, come on! I wish Penglai will get better and better, and I wish you better and better! 🙏 🙏 🙏 See you next time!
The old story in Penglai is finally over, and I have been chasing him for more than a year, a girl. Going through hardships, always remaining gentle and firm, which makes people feel so peaceful in such an impetuous society. You have added a touch of peace to our miserable lives.

Every time I see it, I get angry and speechless. I am exhausted after seeing it [vomiting blood]. The world is like a huge public toilet. After washing this one, wash that one, and after washing that one, wash this one. Then a steady stream of new feces will be produced. Each feces has a different shape, and they can never be cleaned at the same time. People outside smelled the smell and scolded the cleaners for not cleaning up. Little did they know that your brother and sister, the cleaners, were about to burn into relics [covering face, laughing and crying] Oh, the cleaning staff here is hereditary, and so is shit, and so is the toilet cubicle [covering face, laughing, and crying]
This section about ancient times is so exciting, so beautiful. I know that both Su and Han only engage in conspiracy and not conspiracy.
The author writes well! There is a sense of familiarity from the narration, the writing style is particularly beautiful, and the setting is also very popular. The core of our heroine is so strong. I beg for a HE... I don't want a little couple BE.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh????? If a person does not serve himself, he will be destroyed by heaven and earth. Reading them brings a little closer to the darkness of human nature, and reading them arouses people with conscience little by little. I can see the vast square where the immortal cultivators are, I can see the coughs, coughs, coughs in the mirror, I can see the coughs, coughs, coughs at the critical moment during the execution. In fact, the scene shown at the beginning is of a muddy stone road and a low-level market. , Chu Qingqing can escape from the world, speak for the common people, has strength and has the world in mind. Zhu Wenhe's skill is not as good as Kekeke, but he is smart and responsible, and he still protects the heroine by himself at critical moments. Is it just because she is the master of Zhuyan Sword? Then why can't he be selfish. I don't know how they will destroy the formation in the later stage, but I look forward to it
It's so well written. I don't have much time and I don't have the patience to read it, so I'm a bit picky about reading it, but it's always a story like this that happens over and over again, and I work hard persistently. It's really good.
😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 I don't know what to say You can finally have a good rest. Well done. Well done. You can rest assured to leave the rest of the journey to the next person. 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭
Please take back my cries for Laojiang in the previous chapters 💔💔
