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.

Chapter 71: Winning People's Hearts

Feng Yun let out a yawn, looking as if she hadn't yet woken up.

"Now the Empress Dowager is going to have a headache."

Fang Fucai's performance in Andu County had been very poor.

Lin E was dead, but Feng Yun was alive and well. Li Sangruo had already been dissatisfied with Steward Fang, having suffered twenty strokes of the cane, and was still recovering from his injuries. Now, with Wei Zheng's accusations, who knew whom Li Sangruo would believe.

Feng Yun said, "Speaking of which, I should thank Lin E and Huan Jiao."

That purse was indeed the one Huan Jiao took to the teahouse at the city gate to find someone on the day of her death. Feng Yun guessed that it was a token Fang Fucai had left for Lin E, and Huan Jiao, knowing this affair, had the audacity to carry the purse and seek someone out...

After Huan Jiao's death, the purse had somehow fallen into Feng Yun's hands.
