A Graceful Song

How hard is it for a woman of merchant origins to protect herself in the capital? Her maternal grandfather is the head of the royal merchants' guild, but her father is weak and cares only for cultivating the Dao. Her eldest uncle is generous, her second uncle frivolous, her aunt haughty, and her fourth uncle stubborn. She only wanted to protect herself and her mother, but a string of ill-fated romances has opened a new path for her. A merchant's daughter rises to become a palace official, marries the carefree Prince, and lives in seclusion. Could life really work out so neatly?
