(One female lead and multiple male leads. The female lead focuses solely on her career.)
After falling from the heights into the mire, Bai Jingnian goes from a living bodhisattva to a rat everyone wants to beat. Her younger sister betrays her, her husband hunts her down, and even the child she carried for ten months fails to recognize her.
Having narrowly survived and returned with a limp, Bai Jingnian is despised by the noble clans. Even her own family turns their blades against her.
Just as Bai Jingnian is condemned by everyone, the imperial uncle who grew up with her says he wants to be her rock. Qi Yuan, the Prince of Northern Xinjiang stationed on the distant frontier, wants to be her wings. And from a corner, a sinister gaze falls upon her: Yuan Heng, the chief eunuch by the Empress Dowager's side, sees her as the bodhisattva who can deliver him...
But Bai Jingnian has never been shackled by romance, nor by personal grudges. She is going to overturn the tables of the great noble clans and let the righteous path illuminate every last one of their sordid schemes!
