Against the Wind: Clearing the Injustice

Against the Wind: Clearing the Injustice Plot:

Lin Wan, the lowest-ranked female clerk in the yamen, was banished from her master’s sect and labeled a “disaster” by townsfolk due to her master’s false accusation of “colluding with enemies to rob silver”. But she refuses to back down—her master clutched half a jade pendant before death, pointing to the unsolved “Canal Silver Robbery” three years ago, whose mastermind is Xiao Yuan, the powerful Jiedushi of Yangzhou. While evading Xiao’s assassins, she uses her meticulousness in filing to re-examine old cases, only to stumble into the “pleasure game” of Gu Zhao, a cynical young marquis. Gu Zhao initially wanted to tease this “stubborn girl” but was moved by her resolve, secretly helping her find witnesses and hide evidence. Yet when they tracked down the robber, the man was shot dead by a dark arrow just as he was about to speak—could the killer be among them? Lin Wan grips the jade pendant, staring at her master’s memorial tablet: even if the wind breaks her wings, she’ll blow the truth into the sunlight.
