Heavy snow seals off the mountains, and demons run rampant. Every man in Blackstone Fort is dead, leaving only a group of helpless noblewomen. Desperate to survive, the eldest young madam grits her teeth and buys a slave named Qin Que. She only means to get a watchdog, but instead brings home a wolf that fiercely guards its own.
Qin Que repairs the city walls, trains elite soldiers, and cultivates spirit fields. In this chaotic age, he carves out a haven of peace by sheer force. The eldest young madam manages the money and supplies, the second young madam treats wounds and illness, the little princess trains the cavalry, and the Western Regions dancer gathers intelligence...
While the warlords of the realm are still fighting over a sack of grain, Qin Que is already relaxing in a heated pavilion, sipping fine wine and directing the course of the world.
“I’m not an ambitious man.”
“I just want to give the suffering women of this world a home that shelters them from the wind and rain.”
