[Pure historical romance, no rebirth, no transmigration, no golden finger, set in a fictional world]
An imperial decree falls from the sky. The Xia household has five daughters. What future awaits them?
The eldest is a poised empress with a clear head, but can she find love after marriage with a stern emperor?
Yuanhua: “All my life, I longed for freedom, yet I was trapped behind towering walls, unable to spread my wings. If I could live again, I would choose another path.”
The emperor: “We are alike. We both have reasons we cannot ignore, so let us keep each other company on this path.”
The second is a striking, cold-hearted general. Can she stand by the devoted physician through life and death?
Zhaohua: “I did not fail my king or the realm, but I failed one person alone.”
The physician: “I once saved countless people, yet I could not save her. What kind of physician does that make me?”
The third daughter is a frail young lady who pities the lonely and helps the weak, and saves a cold-blooded assassin.
The fourth is a proud swordswoman who hates evil, yet the truth of her origins remains a mystery.
The youngest is the apple of her family's eye, but after falling from privilege, can she find redemption?
