Tears of Qinghe in Troubled Times

Disaster strikes without warning. Shen Qinghong's family falls into ruin, her cloth shop is coveted by a cruel prince, and her elder sister, Shen Qinglan, falls into enemy hands.

She hides in a run-down shantytown and struggles to make a living with her family's traditional weaving skills, navigating the rival powers of the bustling foreign concessions.

The concessions are rife with hidden currents, competitors scheme against one another, and foreign cloth floods the market. Every step is a trap.

They meet amid the chaos of a troubled age, and feelings quietly blossom. But as the world rises and falls around them, their romance is full of hardship and setbacks.

With quiet resolve and careful plans, she must rescue her sister and protect the name her father left behind, while also guarding the one tender feeling in her heart through the storm.

In troubled times, human affections are fickle and the road ahead uncertain. Love and hate are both beyond one's control.
