Yun Baizhi sometimes has prophetic dreams. After years of a loving marriage, she one day dreams that her husband is secretly plotting to kill her so he won't have to reveal the whereabouts of his former master!
Her husband's former master was once a prince of the current dynasty, but is now a wanted fugitive.
All those years as husband and wife can't hold a candle to the "brotherly bond" her husband talks about. Yun Baizhi sneers.
She has never been one to tolerate anyone plotting to take her life or her property.
After her husband's death, Yun Baizhi flees with his former master. A golden-scaled fish is no pond-dweller; when the winds and clouds gather, it becomes a dragon. Once Yun Baizhi breaks out of her cramped little world, she is sure to set the whole realm in turmoil.
Xie Ming went to war in his teens, guarding the border and earning one victory after another. Then he was framed, and just when he had reached the end of his rope, he met the extraordinary Yun Baizhi. She was brash and had no sense of rank or propriety, yet he couldn't take his eyes off her.
He once asked where she came from.
Yun Baizhi brushed him off. "I came from the heavens."
In fact, Yun Baizhi wasn't lying. She had transmigrated into a book, falling from the sky.
But because she resisted following the plot, she was forced to lose her memories. The story she was originally supposed to follow went like this: In a story written for a male audience, the author wanted to show off "brotherly loyalty," so a man killed his wife for the sake of his male friend, the protagonist. The wife didn't even get a name.
But Yun Baizhi fears neither heaven nor earth and refuses to be pushed around. With the merit she earned by helping the new emperor ascend the throne, she becomes the realm's greatest chancellor!
