Personality
Furong is shown be to a kind woman, happy with her husband and daughters, she knew that women who married into large families in the Wei Kingdom could not easily show their faces outside. But on the Grass Plains, she was free to go anywhere in the Chengli Tribe. Although one thing would always cause pain in Furong's heart was the fact that Agula was tattooed at birth because she thought that the body, hair and skin were given by their parents and only banished criminals got tattooed. Furong had not read any books.

History
Furong lived with her farmer parents in one of the border villages of the Wei Kingdom.

The county that they had lived in for generations was called Furong County. Those two words were just right for their daughter.

Sukhbaru was taken in by his family of farmers, he lived with them for five years. Due to his frank and upright personality of the Grass Plains, the old couple was very fond of him. The couple allowed their daughter to marry Sukhbaru.

One day before the wedding, a group of tribespeople barged into the village on the eve of their wedding. Sukhbaru left with them the next day. Before leaving, he gave Furong a necklace of wolf fangs. And he asked her to wait for him.

Qiyan Sukhbaru returned to the Grass Plains where he accepted the king’s position from his father’s hands. He laid the previous Khagan to rest. Five years later, the Chengli tribe regained its rank as one of the three biggest tribes under his lead.

At that time, Furong had already become an ‘old Miss’ through and through. Unable to take the rumors and slanders in the village, her parents passed away.
