About This Novel

Hidden in the tea smoke in Chang'an is Yangzhou woman Lin Ruoxue's ten years of hatred. In the 23rd year of Kaiyuan, the Lin family, a salt merchant in Yangzhou, executed everyone for privately selling ambergris. Thirteen-year-old Ruoxue fled with half a Pisces jade pendant, chewing up the family's blood feud and swallowing it. Ten years later, she returned to Chang'an as the daughter of a tea merchant and opened a tea shop called "Tingxue Tower" in the West City. The blue-colored tea soup was filled with the dipterocarps she carefully prepared - it was the tribute formula presented to Xuanzong by King Ning, and it was also the bait she spread. Pei Mingyuan's appearance was like a pebble thrown into tea soup. This son of an aristocratic family with the false reputation of "Flower and Bird Envoy" always has a gilt sachet hanging on his waist, but there is a gleam of swords hidden in his eyes. He saw through the secret in her tea at a glance, and also knew the origin of the Pisces jade pendant around her waist - it was the key evidence in the ambergris case ten years ago. "You want revenge, and I want to investigate the case." He pushed the map of Prince Ning's residence in front of her, and the golden peonies on the brocade robe flowed under the candlelight. "Why don't we make a deal." So, the tea cup in Tingxue Tower became a container of intelligence: the lapis lazuli buttons on the cuffs of the merchants in the Western Regions, the benzoin on the temples of the Persian dancer, and the lines of tea foam in the tea bowl of the Minister of Civil Affairs were all transformed into sharp blades to stab Prince Ning at Ruoxue's fingertips. She used the tea ceremony as her armor and the incense book as her blade, working step by step among the powerful and powerful, but she didn't know that she had already become the most critical piece in Pei Mingyuan's chess game. When the secrets of Ambergris were revealed layer by layer, and when the real culprit who framed the Lin family surfaced, Ruoxue was shocked to realize that Pei Mingyuan was far closer to her goal, which was far more than just bringing down Prince Ning.
