Six Daughters of a General’s Family

The Great Zhou has its own Du Gu Xin — Shen Jinghai [ensemble cast · political intrigue · multiple pairings]

A family of six daughters, all married on the same day, each to a satisfactory husband.

In the depths of winter, an imperial decree breaks through the last peace of the general’s residence. General of the State Shen Jinghai takes his own life in wrongful grievance, and Madam Shen dies with her life exhausted, leaving behind only six daughters with no one to rely on.

The emperor, full of remorse on his sickbed, issues an edict of betrothal, but the imperial consort takes advantage of the situation — assigning the six Shen sisters to the most difficult men in all of the capital.

The resilient eldest sister vs. the patient deputy minister

The dashing female general vs. the cold-faced general

The proper talented woman vs. the gentle top scholar

The clear-headed strategist vs. the obsessive prince

The sickly beauty vs. the licentious heir

The lively youngest sister vs. the fatherly marquis

Strong against strong, marriage first and love later, household scheming and political intrigue intertwined, each with her own edge.

When the winter is over and the truth comes out, the general’s daughters who once bowed their heads now hold the life and death of every household in their hands.

The imperial consort watches coldly from the side and only laughs: “Let’s see what kind of storm you can stir up.” But she does not know that the six sisters have already quietly woven a net to overturn the entire situation —

“This capital’s sky should change.”
