Shen Qing, a maid in the Duke of Jingguo’s household, finds herself from the start in a desperate predicament: she has been kidnapped and is about to be sold. In that moment, she discovers that the palm of her hand can sense other people’s troubles and misfortunes. This ability is both a curse and her only way forward.
Starting from nothing, she moves carefully at every step, awakens from her status as a slave, and finds her footing amid the chaos of a troubled age. Combining modern management principles with her insight into human nature, she turns crises into opportunities, wins people over, and builds her strength.
She will no longer work for anyone else. Her dream is to create a peaceful world for all the people under heaven.
