Snow falls in June, and a loyal minister of his generation is wrongfully accused and condemned.
Overnight, every man in the Jiang family is exiled. The once-prominent clan is left with only six sisters, relying on one another through every storm.
With nowhere left to turn, the six sisters swear a solemn oath. They will brave every thorn and clear their family name.
The road to overturning the verdict is long, and the court is a tangled web of intrigue. As one crisis follows another, each sister meets the love fate has in store for her amid the mire:
Steadfast, responsible eldest sister × younger, forthright loyalist | A decisive choice, and love at first sight, sincere and fiery
Martial-arts-obsessed, wooden second sister × flashy, scheming peacock | Bickering and squabbling, a hilarious pair of natural enemies
Secretive, rational third sister × ritual master with two souls in one body | Conflicting sides, a fateful struggle tangled in love and hate
Frailly ill yet perceptive fourth sister × obsessive, devoted powerful minister | Old feelings linger, and former lovers reunite to mend their broken relationship
Radiant, outspoken fifth sister × taciturn Minister of Works | Quiet devotion, years of waiting, and a secret love fulfilled
Warm, healing little sunshine × reserved, older ice prince | They warm one another, draw closer, and find salvation together
The court is a battlefield, but love flourishes all the same.
Six Jiang women, each with a character as distinct as her bearing, use their family bonds as armor and fight to survive, step by step, in a game of political intrigue.
They will clear their family’s name, find kindred spirits, and write an enduring tale of romance worthy of the finest scholars and beauties.
