About This Novel
In the 16th year of Qianlong's reign, the Duke Chengen's mansion was established. The legitimate daughter Wanyan Wanzhen guarded the old plum tree that never bloomed, and waited for seventeen years - until she received a letter from her old aunt on her deathbed. "Your mother-in-law didn't die of illness, she was killed by someone." The letter paper is yellowed and the handwriting is like a knife. Those who harm others are the people in the house and the shadow in the palace. Aunt Gualja's smile hides her family's connections in the palace; Mrs. Hesheli, who is seriously ill, has been guarding a secret for seventeen years and dare not tell it; the old aunt in the West Cross Courtyard has guarded a red lacquer box for her whole life; and her biological mother, the maid who was righted, wrote down everything she saw before she died - about the sixth prince's life experience, about the imperial concubine's conspiracy, and about the deepest undercurrents under this rich family. Overnight, the old aunt died, the fifth young master was injured, and Mrs. Hesheli passed away. The plum blossoms finally bloomed in the morning light, and Wanzhen received an anonymous letter: "The plum blossoms are in bloom, and the snow is about to fall. Tomorrow at noon, there will be someone waiting for you at Baiyun Temple in the east of the city." She must go. Because some truths are heavier than life. The deep house is like the sea, and the human heart is like the mountain. What she wanted was never revenge, but just to let the plum blossoms bloom in an innocent place.
