Shen Qingci, the concubine of the household minister's house, has been living in the hands of her aunt since she was a child. An imperial edict broke the peace, and the eldest sister was unwilling to enter the palace, so she was forced to marry as a substitute.

Shen Qingci pinched the bag of arsenic in his hand and thought of his biological mother's tears before leaving home - either stepping on others to climb up, or becoming the mud under others' feet.
