On her wedding night, Ling Xiuqing, the legitimate daughter of an embroidery dynasty, is framed by her husband and his trusted aide and drowned in the heart of the river. When she awakens in a ruined temple, she is in another body. The talents and skills from her past life are her only weapons, and her boundless hatred is the fuel that keeps her going. From mending clothes on the street to dazzling everyone with her skills, from founding the Zhi Embroidery House to setting the fashion trends of all Shanghai, she advances one step at a time, wielding her needle like a blade to crush every betrayal and scheme. This is revenge in its purest form, and the epic rebirth of a woman who breaks free from her chains in the flames and embroiders an empire of her own, rising from “phoenix” to “empress.”
