This story is set in the Chu Dynasty, a dynasty where imperial power and the power of aristocratic families checked and balanced each other. In order to consolidate his imperial power, the emperor continued to fight overtly and covertly with aristocratic families, and the situation in the court was turbulent. Aristocratic families also compete with each other for interests and power. In this context, although women's status has improved compared with the previous dynasty, they are still subject to many restrictions in family and court affairs. However, there are always some strange women who can break through the constraints and write their own legends.
