Mu Lianhui was the apple of the Lian Family's eye, and the only girl of her generation.
In her childhood, Madam Wu, feeling sorry for her loneliness, brought Jiang Yunuan into the mansion, and after the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion encountered upheaval, Mu Lianhui's life also changed.
In the 13th year of Yong'an, the Old Marquis Mu and his three sons died one after another on the battlefield, and Mu Liankang, who went to receive their remains, disappeared. The court, in a bid to console them, awarded honors continually.
The Empress Dowager noticed that the adolescent Mu Lianhui was not in good spirits, fearing she would succumb to depression alone in the remnant family, she bestowed upon her the title of Lady Jiarou. Coincidentally, the Imperial Consort was going to Putuo Mountain to pray, and she wished for Mu Lianhui to accompany her.
Madam Wu was reluctant, but Mrs. Lian persuaded her, and eventually sent Mu Lianhui along.
That journey lasted more than three years.
