The Radiant Saga of Miss Xie

Her soul returned to the Great Wei, and she became the eldest daughter of the Xie family.

She was surrounded by fine clothes and delicious food, adorned with silks, jewels, and pearls. But behind the walls of the grand residence, her parents were cold and indifferent, her sisters turned against one another, and all the glittering splendor was a cage. Fortunately, there were still people in this world who truly cared for her, who understood her troubles and protected her from harm.

She had no desire to be trapped in the tangled romances of the inner household. She only wanted to break free of the shackles of ritual and live as she pleased, unconstrained and at ease. But in a world ruled by conventional morality, it was hard for a woman of her time to make her way. Her only choice was to quietly take power into her own hands, keep her sharpest edge hidden, and watch the world’s conflicts unfold with cool detachment. That way, she could live safely and freely, at peace for the rest of her life.
