The Grand Historian's Office, which recorded the merits and faults of the realm, was brutally wiped out. Sun Yuwei, its sole surviving heir, escaped death and pretended to have lost her memory, scraping by in the capital.
After three years in hiding, she posed as a meek, helpless orphan. Regent Li Jingbai repeatedly kept her down, and no one in court or country gave her a second thought.
Her closest friend was a wolf in sheep's clothing, watching and plotting against her at every turn. The regent, who bore the blame of infamy, was secretly protecting her. And the emperor, who seemed weak, was the true mastermind behind it all.
Little did anyone know that her amnesia was a disguise. Sun Yuwei was no victim of the massacre, but the one who had sacrificed her own family and entered the game herself, all to overturn the court.
