The elderly Chancellor was falsely accused of corruption. Chu Qingge, a female retainer in his household, risked her life to break into the Court of Judicial Review, where she encountered a clerk with remarkable insight...
Qingge thought, A mere clerk has such breadth of mind. Remarkable.
The other person thought, A woman has such insight. Remarkable.
Later, the elderly Chancellor left these last words: "There's one person who must be killed if she isn't put to use..."
Who was this person?
Someone else said, If she's so talented, she must be a noble scion, a refined young gentleman...
No. She was just a low-ranking court official in the Chancellor's household.
And not only that, she was an engineering student who made it through the gaokao after failing a thousand times!!!
