About This Novel
In the spring of the 14th year of Yongcheng's reign, Shen Qingci, who had been widowed for three years, was summoned to the Marquis of Jing'an by his seriously ill aunt, only to discover that this was a trap set by Liu, the eldest lady of the Marquis' mansion - she wanted to marry Shen Ci to the tyrannical third son of the Wang family in exchange for the support of the Queen Mother's family. The last words left by her aunt before her death revealed the truth that Shen Qingci's mother Su Wanning did not die of illness but was poisoned. Shen Qingci found a magnolia pattern key, a secret account book and several secret letters among the relics left by her aunt and uncle. Following the clues, she uncovered a shocking secret that had been sealed for fifteen years - her mother was forced to forge the late emperor's edict for the Queen Mother's family, but was later silenced. The mastermind behind the scenes was her mother's half-sister, Wang Wanjun, who is now the queen mother's sidekick. With the help of his biological aunt Su Wanqing (who had been lurking with the Queen Mother for fifteen years) and Emperor Yongcheng, Shen Qingci transformed from a dependent widow into a key figure in overthrowing the queen mother and avenging her mother. When the Queen Mother died and Emperor Yongcheng took over the throne, Shen Qingci presented all the evidence in court, and the crimes of Liu, Wang Wanjun, Wang Jingchuan and others were exposed one by one. After the dust settled, Shen Qingci refused the reward and created his own world in the capital.
