In the third year of the Tianqi reign of Dajing, the back alleys on the outskirts of Beijing were filled with fireworks and cold weather.
Su Wanwu was originally a young girl from a poor family in the city. Her family was poor and her family depended on each other. She was born with stunning beauty, and her skills in perfumery and embroidery were the best among her neighbors. She also possessed the wisdom of merchants and managers, but she always kept to herself and only wanted to live a stable life. She never dared to cling to the rich and powerful.
By chance, she met the current regent.
He was under the rank of Ninth Five-Year-Old and held the power of both the government and the public. He fell in love with her at first sight and had a deep love for her. His eyes could not hide the cherishment and pity.
But she was born in a dusty world and had a cautious and self-sufficient nature. She did not dare to expect the affection of Tianhuang nobles. She only wanted to use this slight opportunity to find food and clothing for her family and escape the embarrassment of a poor family.
A night of irrepressible love is the beginning of fate, and it is also a sign of staying together.
She accepted several boxes of silver, not interested in fame or affection, but only regarded this gift as the capital to start a business.
From then on, money paved the way and skills were established.
She established a business in the capital and became famous for her fine embroidery. With her exquisite mind, she made friends with powerful people, took charge of the internal affairs of the palace, and gradually established her footing. She also followed the regent to the border towns, where she displayed her business talents in the 120 counties of the fifteen prefectures in the southwest, opened up trade routes, revitalized the markets in the border areas, and revitalized the commerce of the area.
He shielded her from wind and rain with his overwhelming power, paved the way for her future, silently escorted her, and helped her step by step from a weak girl in the market to a female court official who was in charge of the southwest business affairs and shouldered important responsibilities in the court.
She spent half her life in business, career, and people, and he loved and protected her all the way, waiting for her to return calmly.
The mountains and rivers are far away, the business journey is long, and the affection has accumulated over the years, and finally lost the sense of propriety and restraint of the first acquaintance.
