The Story of Sang Jin

Gu Sangran, an illegitimate daughter of the Gu family, kneels in the silkworm room, fingertips brushing the newly reeled snow-silkworm silk. Her stepmother, Madam Wang, is tapping her abacus, preparing to hand the room over to her legitimate daughter. "Your mother was a lowly silkworm farmer. What makes you think you're worthy of keeping this treasure?" Gu Sangran looks up, the corners of her eyes red. "Give me three months. If I can't weave the finest brocade in all of Suzhou, I'll hand over the silkworm room myself." Who could have imagined that three months later, the moonlit "Frostflow Brocade" would leave the entire hall in awe? She strides out of the silk-reeling room, making her way into the world of brocade. She opens a weaving workshop, takes on the great clans, and builds silk-trading routes, until silk merchants across the land kneel at her feet and call her "Mistress Weaver"!

From silk reeler to workshop owner, from industry leader to Mistress Weaver of the world, what is she really weaving?

A grand game that will turn the world upside down!
