Su Jinwei, the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, lived in a deep house since she was a child. Her biological mother died young, her stepmother treated her harshly, and her concubine was trapped every step of the way. The beautiful boudoir of the past was nothing more than an exquisite prison to her. She sharpened her edge, hid her intelligence, endured the internal disputes, silently guarded the dowry and old ministry left by her mother, and waited for the opportunity to turn things around.
At a spring banquet, she unexpectedly met Xiao Yanci, the powerful Duke of Jingguo. Everyone knows that he has a cold temperament and a deep palace, and is a feared sharp blade in the court, but he only has a rare compassion for the weathered Su Jinwei.
There are turbulent undercurrents in the inner house, and poisonous schemes emerge one after another; the situation in the court changes, and the prince's seizure of the legitimate son sets off huge waves. The grievances at home and the intrigues at court are closely intertwined. Su Jinwei is forced to step out of the boudoir and use her wits to tear through the layers of conspiracies. She exposes all the schemes of her stepmother to gain property and her concubine's frame-up, and regains everything that belongs to her.
In the wind and rain, Xiao Yanci always stood by her side. Some people advised her to stay away from disputes and live a stable life; some people used coercion and inducement to make her give up her original intention. But she didn't want to be a dodder flower that relied on others, and grew proud in the dust of beauty.
The brocade spreads, and the Chinese years are full of ups and downs.
One of them broke free from the shackles of the house, and the other was trapped in the whirlpool of power.
After experiencing suspicion, frame-up, and tests of life and death, they worked together to eliminate the traitors and calm the turmoil in the court.
Wait until the dust settles and the prosperity is gone.
You don't need to borrow glory from anyone, you have your own glorious years; you are lucky enough to meet your best friend and spend your days together in this world.
