At the end of the Qing Dynasty, national capital developed, and the Yuan family in Beijing became rich through business. Yuan Linying, who had great business acumen, was favored by Prince Duan and was recruited as a county horse. The Yuan family became very popular. However, as the saying goes, "Every feast in the world must come to an end", the national capital, which is inherently deficient and acquired, is destined to decline in such a turbulent era.
From the perspective of Yuan Zhiyi, the third generation concubine of the Yuan family, this book reflects the struggles within the family, the changes and contradictions in people's thoughts during the transition from the old to the new, and the trends of the entire era.
In this big family that is like a centipede, how will a concubine deal with herself? What fate will she have?
