What struck me most upon first reading this novel was not the serial killings, the murderer with a split personality, the court politics, or the underworld factions—but a small, poignant moment. Xu Yan jumped into the water to save Li Anchao. When Li Anchao returned home, he encountered his mother committing murder. Knowing full well the consequences, she did the impossible to protect both Li Anning and Li Anchao.
In that era, women were treated as insignificant as weeds, and killing one's husband was an unforgivable sin. Not only could she not defend herself, but the entire environment would not allow her to. From the moment she drew the knife, she became a sinner.
