She was the legitimate daughter of a wealthy merchant and the granddaughter of the Yang family, a family of military commanders in the Jin Kingdom. But after her maternal grandfather was unjustly stripped of his power and her mother died young, she had no one to protect her. She was forced to take her younger half-sister’s place and marry a man already suffering from tuberculosis. She thought she was making a concession in exchange for peace of mind, but it turned out to be just another den of tigers and rhinos.
