Princess Qingyang, Jiang Si, despises the State Preceptor of the Southern Tang court, Ming Ziyan.
If he hadn't presented the emperor with beautiful women, her mother would never have been deposed, much less imprisoned until her death. If he hadn't bewitched her father with his sorcery, coaxing him into making elixirs to attain immortality and neglecting state affairs, the Southern Tang would never have been besieged at its capital, Lin'an, by the Xiongnu cavalry, losing fifteen northern cities in three years.
The late emperor has passed away, the new emperor is still young, the generals refuse to fight, and the officials urge surrender. Sixteen-year-old Princess Qingyang is pushed forward in the name of saving the common people and sent to marry into the Xiongnu court.
She should never have returned from such a journey. But along the way, Jiang Si meets Lin Yiguang, a young Daoist nun who uses the same sorcery as Ming Ziyan.
"Do you know the way to Lin'an?"
"I'm going to slay a great demon and save the people of the world."
Going to Lin'an? Slaying a great demon?
Then let's go together!
