520    Peking, 1914. When the eight-year-old princess Eastern 
       Jewel is caught spying on her father's liaison with a 
       servant girl, she is banished from the palace, sent to 
       live with a powerful family in Japan. Renamed Yoshiko 
       Kawashima, she quickly falls in love with her adoptive 
       country, where she earns a scandalous reputation, taking 
       fencing lessons, smoking opium, and entertaining numerous 
       lovers. Sent to Mongolia to become an obedient wife, 
       Yoshiko mounts a daring escape and eventually finds her 
       way back to Peking high society--this time with orders 
       from the Japanese secret service.
