Ten years ago, Lu Xun's father, Lu Fang, was the Great Zhou dynasty's Grand General, a man whose unparalleled feats had brought glory to the realm. Yet he was framed by a powerful minister and executed along with his entire clan.
As a child, Lu Xun was branded the son of a traitor, exiled to the northern frontier of the Great Zhou dynasty, and reduced to working as a stable hand.
Ten years later, Empress Li Qingyao launches the Dewu Gate Coup, ascends the throne, and grants a general amnesty.
She also issues an imperial decree ordering Lu Xun to marry Tang Wan, daughter of Tang Yuan, a first-rank official and Duke Who Assists the State.
“Lu Xun, as a live-in son-in-law of the Tang family, you should understand your place as a stable hand. You're nothing more than a son-in-law in name...
“You have the title of son-in-law, but don't presume to claim the privileges...
“Within the Tang estate, you're nothing but a servant.
“The young lady will select a maid from the household to bear children for you, Lu Xun. To outsiders, those children will be considered yours and the young lady's. But within the estate, they'll be servants just like you, whether they're boys or girls.
“If you overstep any of these rules, don't blame my young lady for showing no mercy.”

Where is the poison? I feel it was well written. Rather than believing what others say, it's better to see for yourself. Standard cool article. Anyway, I think it's well written.
