The Water Margin
Huang’s story begins with Lin Chong, the female Master Arms Instructor of the Imperial Guard. She’s a middle-aged woman—her children are grown and have moved away from home, leaving her somewhat on her own, dedicated to her job in Bianliang. She offers martial arts classes for other women—a hobby for the wealthier wives of the city—and here she has made friends with Lu Junyi, who hosts intellectual salons for the city’s elite artists, writers, and scientists.
For a loyal citizen of the Empire, this is hard to swallow, and Lin Chong’s journey to accepting how things are—and how thingsbe—drives the majority of the novel. Other characters’ lives and stories weave in and out of the narrative. Lu Da isn’t just Lin Chong’s rescuer; she’s a criminal and former monk who possesses a God’s Tooth, an artifact that allows her to draw on mysterious divine strength to empower her own fighting.
