The Fu Family's ancestral home was not in the Capital City, but General Fu was actually born a commoner, his parents died of illness early on, and he learnt a few characters by eavesdropping outside a private school.
He was born with great strength and possessed an undying and indomitable spirit. He was also clever and astute, seizing opportunities to continuously learn to read, studying military strategies by lamp light.
He had spent many years in life-threatening situations, enlisting at the age of thirteen; he rose from a soldier, squad leader, rank officer, colonel, and capital commandant, finally becoming a general after more than two decades. It seemed glamorous, but those years were spent licking blood off knife-edges.
No one knew how many old wounds he had on his body.
Having been bestowed the title of General of the Northern Command and granted a mansion, General Fu relocated the dilapidated ancestral shrine of his clan here.
