Due to the change of dynasties, Chinese culture and humanistic customs have undergone great changes during the Southern and Northern Dynasties. It must be said that this is also a disguised development.

These have all been buried by time. This book is not to praise Lu Pheasant, but to restore the real her - how a woman obscured by history made her own way in a man's world.
