On the 19th day of the twelfth lunar month in the third year of Jiaping, it snowed heavily in Yanjing. Su Jingyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, guarded Northern Xinjiang for twenty years and made extraordinary achievements. However, he was accused of "collaborating with the enemy and treason" overnight. Eight-year-old Su Wanyue witnessed her father being taken away, her mother being martyred by hitting a pillar, and her mansion reduced to scorched earth. She was carried out of the sea of fire by her nanny Liu, and crossed all the way south to Qingxi Village in the south of the Yangtze River to join her father's old subordinate, Mr. Yunyin, who lived in seclusion and collected medicine.
After ten years of hard work, Su Wanyue learned medical and martial arts skills. She went to Beijing under the pseudonym Shen Ying and lurked in the house of her enemy Duke Pei as a wandering doctor. She teamed up with Xiao Chengyan, the third prince whose life experience had been changed, to secretly collect evidence in the Su case and get closer to the truth step by step. However, she discovers that there is another mastermind behind the destruction of the family - the Queen Mother Xiao replaced the princes to usurp the throne, and the Su family was brutally wiped out because they knew the secret of the late emperor's edict. When the news that his brother Su Mingxuan is still alive comes to light, and when the edict is revealed under the Hanmei Pass stone tablet in northern Xinjiang, a confrontation in the Golden Palace is about to begin.
This is not a revenge story, but a coming home story. The cold plum blossoms stand proud of the snow, and the frost blade returns to its sheath - her return journey has arrived.
