A game of fate spanning a thousand years, a deadly struggle over sacred relics and power. When Su Jin, a modern jewelry appraiser, unexpectedly transmigrates to the Liang dynasty and becomes the Princess Consort of Prince Jing, she thinks she is merely a pawn in a time of turmoil. Little does she know that she has a mysterious connection to a Wu Clan saintess who vanished a thousand years ago. With an eye for spotting forgeries and an enigmatic jade hairpin, she is swept into the surging undercurrents among the factions at court.
Xiao Jingheng, Prince Jing, is a man who seems weak but is unfathomable beneath the surface. At times gentle and considerate, at others sharp and formidable, his true identity and motives are hard to discern. When a carefully planned fire binds their fates together, Su Jin gradually discovers that the jade hairpin in her possession is more than a priceless antique: it is a legendary Wu Clan relic said to bridge the realms of yin and yang and foretell the future. And she herself may well be the reincarnation of the Wu Clan saintess who mysteriously disappeared twenty years ago...
In this struggle over the fate of the dynasty, Su Jin is no longer an outsider swept along against her will. Armed with modern wisdom and the ancient power of the Wu Clan, she will unravel one mystery after another and expose layer upon layer of lies. As the Jin cavalry closes in, powerful ministers bare their fangs, and the truth buried deep in her memories finally comes to light, Su Jin must choose: return to a peaceful life in the modern world, or embrace her identity as the Wu Clan saintess and take on the mission of saving all living beings? And Xiao Jingheng, who has always protected her but refuses to reveal the whole truth, is he her ally, or an opponent hiding an even greater secret?
A coming-of-age epic for women that blends transmigration, mystery, palace intrigue, and fantasy, and a moving story about trust and redemption.
