War Drums and Orchid Fragrance

[Female lead reborn] [One-on-one, devoted to each other] [Secret love becomes mutual] [Two strong leads + devoted husband]

Everyone thinks the eldest daughter of the Zhou family has gone mad.

She melts the key to seal the pass, refuses to hand over the duplicate pass documents, founds the Lan Alliance Industrial Society, and publicly exposes Qiao Ye at the merchants’ guild for conspiring with Beiming and trafficking military supplies!

But only she knows the truth:

If she does nothing, Marshal Mu will be ambushed and killed by Qiao Ye in Jingbo Town; her mother will be kidnapped and nearly die in a fire at the salt warehouse; and Chongling Province will ultimately fall to the enemy after a traitor leads them in.

In this life, she seeks not revenge, but to protect: her elder brother’s future, the girls of Lanzhi Women’s School, and, most of all, the young general who gave her a jade pendant in a ruined temple when she was eleven and warned her, “Don’t trust gentle words.”

She uses account books to cut off the enemy’s supply lines, champions the Canglan Constitutional Charter, and pacifies the turmoil across four provinces.

And he, with his rifle always pointed at the world, entrusts her with his life: “If she wants to save all under heaven, then I’ll bring the land to peace for her.”

The fragrance of orchids lingers, and the flames of war become poetry.
