Green bricks and green tiles, flowers bloom by the path, their fragrance staining clothes; vermilion gates and purple halls, delicate hands pluck stars, making neon into garments.
In the depths of winter, Wen Hao’s life is brutally cut short. But instead of oblivion, she finds herself thrust back in time, to the spring day she first fell from a wall and into the path of Prince Jing’s son. Armed with the memories of her tragic past – her mute existence, the calculated ruin of her family, her sister’s devastating fate, and her own untimely death – Wen Hao is no longer the silent, vulnerable girl she once was.
Now able to speak, she is determined to rewrite her destiny and protect her loved ones from the wolves in sheep’s clothing that lurk within her own family and the highest echelons of society. But as she navigates the treacherous currents of the capital, she discovers that changing the past has unforeseen consequences, and the path to justice is fraught with unexpected alliances and dangerous secrets.
