After transmigrating into the body of a young widow in the Song Dynasty, Su Yunqing carries on her father’s legacy and, as a woman, earns an unprecedented position at the Song Empire’s news hub, the Institute for Memorials. She thinks she will be dealing with nothing more than piles of old documents, but instead she becomes entangled in a vast conspiracy to smuggle military supplies across the border. The deaths of her father and husband turn out to have been the beginning of it all.
At court, she is a target for everyone’s hostility; within the palace, danger lurks around every corner. She wields her pen like a sword, using insight far ahead of her time to search through mountains of official documents for the faintest clues to the truth. Fortunately, Gu Changyuan, an official of the Privy Council, recognizes her talents. The two become mentor and friend, as well as the most dangerous of allies.
From behind a desk to the pinnacle of power, she wears her blue robes and listens for thunder in the silence. Follow this pioneering female editor as she carves a stirring path to clear her name, protect her loved ones, and defend the people in the grand game of Bianjing, where ink and steel intertwine.
