Take Me Where the Clouds Rise Synopsis

Born into the prestigious “Red” family, Hong Xiu Li, despite being the eldest legitimate daughter, lived a life of poverty with her father, Hong Shao Kai, and a mysterious man named Zi Jing Lan, whom her father had taken in during his early years. Having experienced turmoil and understanding the suffering of the people, she, as a girl, couldn’t participate in the imperial examination to become an official. Therefore, she pinned her dreams on her children and became a teacher in a private school.

The astute Prime Minister Xiao, with keen judgment, enticed Hong Xiuli with a high reward to enter the palace as a noble consort and help the current king, Zi Liu Hui. Zi Liu Hui pretended to be a weak ruler but was actually waiting for his exiled brother, Prince Qing Yuan, to return and take the throne in his place.

However, after meeting Hong Xiu Li, he was moved by her wisdom and dedication. He began to diligently handle state affairs and revised the laws to allow women to participate in the imperial examination.

Hong Xiu Li excelled in the examination and became the first female official in the Kingdom of Caiyun. She was appointed as a provincial governor. With her efforts, wisdom, strength, and bravery, she quelled rebellions in various states, ushering in an unprecedented era of prosperity and also finding love along the way.
