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.

The craftsmen focused on their responsibilities, and by the morning of the third day, the foundation had already been laid. The timber and tiles were gradually transported to the site, and because of the soldiers and craftsmen coming and going, Mingquan Town became extraordinarily bustling.

Just as Feng Yun arrived at the hall by carriage, Cong Wentian came over from the streets of Mingquan Town and told her with a grave expression.

"Miss, something terrible has happened."

Feng Yun felt a slight jolt in her heart, "What's wrong?"
