天命之女

Lu Li, the only daughter of the Lu family, falls for Shen Shimei, a poor scholar on his way to the capital for the imperial examinations. She breaks with her father to marry him. When he falls gravely ill, she uses the divine gift she was born with to save him, at the cost of her own face, and then helps him on to first place in the examinations and a name everyone admires. Just as she believes the hard years are over, she learns he has been seeing the Eldest Princess in secret, and he has her whole family put to death on charges of witchcraft. What none of them know is what her gift does to a husband who betrays her.
