Little Sister

An entry in the Who Will Rule the World writing contest, A: Farming A viper’s beauty has lips like a scorpion’s sting, a wasp’s tail holds a needle. She has no regard for rules or morals, and can kill in ten paces! In the chaotic final years of the Yuan Dynasty, as the White Lotus and Red Turbans rise up, the youngest Yang sister was no good sort in her previous life. Now she’s landed in this miserable era, and the wicked schemes brewing in her gut have only multiplied. Fortunately, the Yang family has hundreds of mouths to feed, and every loss would hurt. They have little interest in fighting for the realm! When they see things turning against them, they promptly join forces with their old enemies, the Zhang family, through a marriage alliance. The two families build a stronghold and keep themselves safe, quietly settling into their water fortress on Lake Dongting and waiting for the true Son of Heaven to appear, so they can go home and farm! Still, we’re Han Chinese, after all. It’s only right to occasionally trip up the Mongols and secretly cozy up to the White Lotus and Red Turbans. Of course, when the White Lotus and Red Turbans are getting thoroughly beaten by the Mongols, we wouldn’t dare pick a fight with the Mongols ourselves, would we? Yang Yao, if you want to survive in the cracks, you can’t let those wicked schemes of yours run dry! This era of chaos still has ten years to go! -- A friendly warning: 1. The heroine is no saint, and the hero is a lawless scoundrel beneath his outward show of loyalty and righteousness. If that’s not your thing, don’t read. 2. QQ group: 31509172.
