Feng Jinyan, the Liang Dynasty’s eldest legitimate princess, was born with the bearing of an empress, yet lived in an age when imperial power was crumbling and the nation was on the brink. The emperor was a fool, the court was in disarray, and in the end, he could not tolerate a woman whose sincere devotion sought to save the country. An edict sending her to marry into a foreign realm cast her far away into a land of wolves and tigers. The other people’s humiliation and indifference cut into her like a dull knife, grinding down her proud spirit inch by inch. At last, the dynasty fell, her homeland became ruins, and she too died in a foreign land, her life cut short.
As death approached, Feng Jinyan forced her battered body to activate the imperial secret art. Her blood burned, her soul nearly shattered, and it should have been the end. But in the final moment, the upheaval of heaven and earth and the disorder of cause and effect sent the magic veering off course.
When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the age of three.
