"Hehe, I'm not making this up—it's what the master said!" Xiao Huan dodged Fei Yue'er's pinching fingers. "You wretched girl! Stop it!" Fei Yue'er's face turned even redder, burning with embarrassment. Matters between men and women had always been too shameful for her to discuss. Xiao Huan teased, "Miss, I'm not joking. You and Prince Qi are the same age—you should have been married long ago. It's only because the master pampers you and worries about your health that he hasn't arranged anything. But…-

Access to advanced chapter at https://www.patreon.com/c/caleredhair The scorching sun blazed overhead, and the relentless chirping of cicadas from the treetops grated on the nerves. Fei Yue'er frowned slightly. Having studied history since childhood, she was well aware of the humiliations inflicted by foreign invasions. Though a woman, she shared the same fervent hope for her nation’s strength as any man. Regardless of whether she would marry into Prince Qi’s household, Pan Yu’s slanderous words…

TN: Subscribe my Patreon for advanced chapter at patreon.com/caleredhair. General Luo Quan was walking toward Fei Ji’s residence, a newspaper from Qingzhou in hand. Unlike before, the price of this issue had actually gone down instead of up. Luo Quan still vividly remembered what the merchant selling it had said: "Though I am a merchant, I am first a citizen of Great Yu. How can I care only for profit at a time of national celebration?" As he walked, Luo Quan couldn’t help but reflect—Xiao…

Prince Qi slayed 100,000 barbarian soldiers!” Along the Zhuque Avenue in Chang’an City, a young palace attendant galloped at full speed, shouting the news at the top of his lungs. It wasn’t just Emperor Xiao Wenxuan who was thrilled. Even though he was just a eunuch, often looked down upon and incomplete in others’ eyes, he too carried the fate of the empire in his heart. From the…

Late August, under the blazing sun, Chang’an felt hotter than ever. But the news of the Great Victory at Cangzhou made the heat even more intense.

The hawkish ministers—the ones who always advocated for war—were overjoyed, rushing to the palace to offer their congratulations to Emperor Xiao Wenxuan. Their long-held stance had finally been proven right. Of course, while some…

A hoarse voice echoed across the empty Cangzhou camp. Xiao Ming’s blood burned with passion. This song was the unyielding will of a nation facing foreign invaders. This song was the soul of an army daring to draw its sword. At this moment, the Cangzhou camp fell silent, leaving only the crackling of the bonfire. The soldiers stared at Xiao Ming, who stood before the flames. Suddenly, one soldier began singing along: "If our homeland is invaded..." "Hot-blooded men must rise...." Another voice joined…

“They’re here! They’re here!” A young woman’s voice rang out from the main road leading into Qingzhou City. Everyone turned northward. The Qingzhou Army was marching back in neat formation. Among the crowd waiting were men, women, elders, and children. Even many young women had come. While noblewomen of the Great Yu Empire rarely appeared in public, common folk didn’t follow such strict rules—especially on a day of celebration like this. As the soldiers saw how many citizens had come out…

At the city gate, the mountain of corpses silently told the story of what had happened. Streams of blood flowed together, and the thick smell of blood mixed with the stench of death filled every corner of Cangzhou City. Even after the barbarian troops retreated, the defenders dared not relax. No one could be sure if the retreat was real or just another trap. The city gate had been blasted open by barbarian explosives, and the damage was severe. Zhan Xingchang immediately organized slaves to begin…

On the steppe, only about 40,000 barbarian cavalrymen remained, slowly heading north. Gurtai walked among his people, and from time to time he could hear the quiet sobbing of women. This time, the Huyan Tuo Tribe had been tasked with leading the siege. More than half of their tribe had gone to war—and never returned. "One more battle like this and the Huyan Tuo Tribe will cease to exist." That one sentence from Liu Xuan made Gurtai finally decide: he would no longer send his tribesmen to fight the…
