The Slender Waist

The day the city fell, Feng Yun was treated by her father as a spoil of war and presented to the enemy general. Everyone pitied her, soon to be a captive, plunging into a fiery pit. Yet she veiled the little donkey cart that took her out of the city tightly, daring not to let anyone see the secret delight in her heart… As a child, she behaved oddly and spoke startling words, once predicting a war in which the whole army was wiped out, nearly being burned to death by her clan as a demon. When she grew up, her beauty was out of the world, but she was rejected by her husband's family. In the period of chaos and disorder everywhewe, where could a female captive go? "I do not seek a devoted partner to grow old with; I merely wish to rule unrivaled in this life." In her previous life, Feng Yun was always the one being scorned by others; in this life, she decided to strike first, turning the tables on each and every one of them, those so-called unreachable flowers and beasts in gentleman's clothing, those degenerates… all to be scorned in return.

After Pei Jue left, Feng Yun followed the crowd back to Chunmeng Hall.

Learning that Uncle had given the Sun and Moon Talisman to Feng Yun, Ao Qi seemed somewhat unsettled, riding ahead, braving the wind and snow, holding the reins as he went, his gaze deeply fixed on the path ahead, his face exuding the untold sharpness of youth.

Ye Chuang and Lin Zhuo, accompanied by the guards, rode by the sides of the carriage.

The entire procession was silent to the extreme.

Inside the carriage, Xiaoman was also listless, her eyes surveying Feng Yun's calm and composed visage with a sense of loss.

"Why are you unhappy?" Feng Yun raised her eyes to look at her.

Xiaoman cast her gaze downward, pursing her lips.

"Why didn't the Princess go with the King to the Central Capital?"

Feng Yun smiled softly, "It seems you can't bear to be parted from your Big Brother Zuo. No wonder you've been showing me a long face since this morning..."
