Yu Zhi Yun, the legitimate daughter of the Yu family, was burdened with heavy shackles from the moment she was born. Her mother went into a difficult labor after relatives within the clan conspired with outsiders to poison her in secret. After exhausting the last of her strength to give birth to Yu Zhi Yun, her mother died before help could arrive, along with the other child she had been carrying. Yu Zhi Yun's birth should have been a double blessing, but instead it marked the beginning of tragedy.
Her father, heartbroken by his wife's death, treated Yu Zhi Yun with cold indifference. Meanwhile, the true culprits abandoned the innocent baby at a desolate estate, condemning her to fend for herself, under the pretext that she was "cursed to bring misfortune to her family." Yu Zhi Yun's fate was like that of an abandoned seed: though it lay in adversity, it held the strength to push through the soil.
