From Cradle to Courtroom

Shu Yuwan is the youngest daughter of the family, cherished by her parents and older brothers since childhood. Her mother carefully selected a noble son with outstanding character from the capital as her husband. After marriage, although the couple couldn’t be described as inseparable, they could still be considered respectful to each other. Unexpectedly, while she was pregnant, her husband claimed to have met a remarkable woman who astonished him, and he wanted to divorce her and marry that woman. She was unwilling, and her family also did not agree. Her husband took his beloved and left, not returning for seven years. With the fifth prince ascending the throne, her husband, holding the power of the imperial guards, returned with his beloved. She found herself in an awkward situation with her seven-year-old daughter. She had intended to divorce and take her daughter back to her parents’ home, but she heard that her good husband had raided the family estate, and her parents and brothers were all exiled. Shu Yuwan fell seriously ill and passed away before her daughter came of age, leaving this world. Yet, even at the moment of death, her eyes remained open. Her daughter was still unable to fend for herself, and her parents and brothers were suffering in exile. How could she willingly die at this point, but her body had already reached its limit. She opened her eyes again. She was overjoyed; some people should be abandoned when necessary.
