Even a noblewoman can fall from grace. Jiang Caiyu was the most illustrious young lady in Bianjing, born to a distinguished family and a singular presence in her own right. No one dared approach her with a marriage proposal. Then, in a single day, her family was destroyed and her loved ones killed. She had no chance to say goodbye, or even to grieve. Still a child, she had no choice but to struggle for survival with her younger siblings. She gave up her identity, even her gender. In the midst of her pain, she found a ray of light, only to lose him in her grief. When she returned home, she was no longer the immaculate noblewoman she once was, but a lotus blooming from the mud: the White Lotus of Changdi. And he was no longer the person she had first known, either.
