A highly gifted heir to an ancient martial arts clan transmigrates to the past!
Not as a princess or a nobleman's daughter, but as a wicked mother whose home has just been swept away by a flood, forcing her to flee with her daughter-in-law and grandson!
Her sweet daughter-in-law depends on her completely. Xu Yuehuai plans to head north and take them to Chang'an, where they can live in comfort and enjoy the finer things in life.
Her awful relatives, who depend on her to get by, think she's dreaming: “You want to go to Chang'an? Why not fly up to heaven and become an immortal while you're at it?”
“If you can, then don't follow me!” Xu Yuehuai has never been one to back down.
Her awful relatives rely on her for their meals, so they can only shut up and obediently follow along.
As they journey north, Xu Yuehuai gathers refugees, fights bandits, and battles both nature and people. She never once considers turning back. She is also fortunate to receive help from a young man in white. She thinks it was just a chance encounter, never expecting their fates to be so closely entwined.
Xu Yuehuai only wants to open a restaurant in the capital and make a fortune, but she never expected to get caught up in a struggle for power. The young man in white turns out to be a prince of immense influence. In the capital, where undercurrents swirl, she only wants to use her modest strength to shelter the people she cares about.
Qi Guze was born into unimaginable wealth, yet has no desire for power or the throne. He only wishes for peace throughout the land and for his Yuehuai to achieve all she hopes for, growing old by his side and always staying close to him.
