During the Xuanhe era of the Great Zhou dynasty, the empire appears magnificent and prosperous, but currents of danger swirl beneath the surface. The schemes in the inner chambers of noble households are even more treacherous than the blades and shadows of the court. When the ancient divine artifact, the Samsara Mirror, appears, her soul returns to her body and she is sent back to the spring when she was fourteen. In her previous life, she was betrayed by her closest kin, the one who shared her bed, and her best friend, and died with hatred in her heart.
As someone who has returned with memories of her previous life, she sees through every conspiracy and every heart, yet must bear the price of knowing what she cannot say. Her warnings about plots are hard to believe, and after seeing through people’s hearts, she can no longer trust them easily. Once a pawn on someone else’s board, she vows to take control and turn the tables in this life. But she doesn’t know that the player herself may still be a pawn in an even greater game. The peach blossoms are in bloom, and everything seems as though it can still be put right. But can she truly rewrite the tragedy of her previous life in this battle within the inner chambers?
