Lihua, the composed and politically astute daughter of a powerful duke, and Niaojie, a graceful Korean princess, are chosen to solidify alliances and strengthen the empire's influence.

As their roles intertwine, Sovieshu must find harmony within this delicate household, where the fate of the empire and his own heart hang in the balance. "THE WEAVERS" delves into the early days of Sovieshu's rise, exploring the intricate dynamics of his marriages, loyalty, and the unforeseen alliances that shape the course of his legacy.
