The General's Mansion's Divine Con Artist: Beautiful and Dashing Once Again

The Shame of Nanyong not only destroyed the Fan family, a distinguished clan of generals, but also left their souls trapped beneath a curse. The eldest Fan daughter went from a noblewoman of the capital to a jinx said to have brought her family to ruin. When a useless fool became a master diviner, everyone responsible for the Fan family’s defeat and the loss of their city began dying in mysterious ways. One Su Xubai: “Your Highness, look! What a beauty!” Sheng Shirong didn’t even glance over. “Beauty lies in the bones, not the skin.” Two Su Xubai watched as the beauty rushed toward his prince, then watched his prince dodge her perfectly, missing his chance to play the hero and save her. Sheng Shirong: Whew, that was close. She nearly ran into me. Fan Jiu: “...” Was she poisonous or something? The kind of poison that would kill him if he got too close? Three Sheng Shirong told the emperor, “Your son only wants to marry her.” “Have you met her?” “When we were children.” “What if she grew up ugly?” “How could someone with a kind heart ever be ugly?” Four Sheng Shirong had hated fortune-tellers since childhood. But if the fortune-teller was Xiao Jiu, that was another matter. Sheng Shirong: “What do you make of my face?” Looking at the man gazing at her expectantly, Fan Jiu blurted out, “You look short-lived.” The moment the words left her mouth, a knife was held to Fan Jiu’s throat. Fan Jiu thought the man would get angry, just like his guard, but instead he brushed the knife aside and said with a smile, “You truly are a master diviner. I am indeed destined to die young.” Everyone was stunned. Fan Jiu: “...” He was the first person she’d ever met who so calmly admitted to looking short-lived. Later, Fan Jiu had to free her family’s souls and keep this short-lived man from dying suddenly and violently.
