About This Novel

Su Jinyue was an inconspicuous ugly maid in the backyard of the Li Mansion, with a sallow face, thick black eyebrows, a hunchback, and she never raised her head in front of others. No one expected that under this ugly skin, there was hidden the true face that was glimpsed at the Shangyuan Lantern Festival and caused the Seventh Prince to search for him all over the city. No one even knew that the butterfly earrings on her waist were the only token left to her daughter by her loyal minister Su Heng, who was executed by his family eighteen years ago. She originally wanted to pretend to be ugly to save her life and live in peace. But some people refused to let it go. The prince regards her as his prey and presses her step by step; the second prince sets up spies and plots secretly; the five major families have their own agendas and appear one after another. She takes a step back, they take a step forward. She hid for three years and finally didn't want to hide anymore. From the house fight in the backyard of the Li Mansion to the intrigues in the Jinluan Palace; from the wind and snow in Tiemenguan to the raging war in the north. She investigated unjust cases, rectified military pay, established audits, legislated laws, quelled civil strife, and retreated from foreign enemies. Along the way, some people blocked arrows for her, some sharpened her knives, some rushed thousands of miles from the north to the south of the Yangtze River to help, and some sat under the locust tree for three years listening to her story. She went from a maid who didn't dare to raise her head to the top of the court of the supervising and regent. She relied not on anyone's favor, but on the tattered account books, the unjust cases that were overturned one after another, and a group of people who were willing to hold up the mirror with her. This is a woman's epic and a mirror's legend. What she is trying to solve is not the case, but the world.
