The Wind Rises in the Capital

Li Cunren, governor of Yongzhou, married his eldest daughter into the Mao Duke's household. A year later, her husband fell off his horse and died...

His second daughter, Shu Yao, traveled a thousand miles from Yongzhou to the capital to visit her sister. Who could have guessed she'd run into someone she shouldn't have the moment she arrived?

The Duke's household is as complicated as expected: the second master is difficult, the madam is domineering, the old madam says not a word, and the sisters each have their own schemes... Then there's the ninth uncle, a handsome and cold-blooded powerful official, terrifying to behold.

Ninth Uncle: You've got some nerve, spying on me!

Shu Yao: What's wrong with taking a look? It's not as if you're a young lady...

Ninth Uncle: Want to look that badly? Then look for the rest of your life!

A sweet romance with a few twists and turns. No transmigration, no being reborn, no System. Set in a fictional world, with both household and palace intrigue, while the hero and heroine shower each other with affection.
