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 318 Great Business

In Yun Village, Chunyu Yan was reclining against the newly built kang, with a table laden with fine wines and delicacies in front of him, yet he had very little appetite.

This was the ninth New Year he had spent away from home.

Everyone said the Crown Prince of Yunchuan was the wealthiest in the land, possessing houses wherever he went, but he who owned countless houses now had no home to return to.

The holiday season is when nostalgia for hometowns, family, and bygone times hits the hardest, yet he had nowhere to direct such thoughts.

Alone and friendless.

Chunyu Yan tilted back his head and drained the cup of wine, just as the curtain was drawn aside.

Xiang Zhong entered, his face plastered with a smile that hadn't even faded before he was hit with a glowering stare, immediately stiffening his demeanor as he respectfully made his report.

"Reporting to the Princely Heir, a messenger from Changmen Village has come with an invitation."
