The entire Shen family is wrongly accused, and the eldest daughter, Shen Jinghong, is reduced to a government slave—yet she is born with the rare power of Eagle-Eye Resonance, able to commune heart-to-heart with falcons. In the mire she tames a hunting hawk, forms an Eagle Guard in a ruined border fortress, and uses her war eagles to scout enemy movements a thousand li away, repeatedly foiling the enemy's schemes. Facing the crown prince's frame-ups and an invading enemy nation, she leads her flock of eagles into the capital's court, exposes the treasonous conspiracy, and clears the Shen family's name. From prisoner to General of Phoenix Plumes, she wields eagles as her blade and her heart as her shield, ultimately safeguarding home and country—proving true the Shen family creed: the Shen eagles never enter a cage.
