Before the age of seventeen, Shen Yu was the distinguished daughter of a prestigious family, ready to wield her sword at any moment.
After seventeen, she became the frail wife of a low-ranking official in the Jiang Mansion. With her father and brothers fallen in battle, and her family renowned for their loyalty, she bore the stigma and married Jiang Lianzhi.
She once thought he was her savior, only to realize he was her executioner. A valiant daughter of a military family, she drowned in a conspiracy in an icy lake.
Returning to the year of her father and brothers’ deaths, she walked alone, witnessing the devastation of the world along the way.
Avenging the unavenged, delivering justice where none was given. When the heavens were unjust, she overturned them; when corruption prevailed, she slew the corrupt officials.
Reopening old cases, executing corrupt officials, slaying old enemies… She marched forward relentlessly, with someone always standing tall behind her.
Xie Tingzhou said, “Go and do what you want to do. Fear not, I’ll accompany you in overturning this world.”
