The White Horse in the Cold Misty Rain

When his entire family was slaughtered, he was born amid blood and violence. He defeated the Xiongnu, defended the frontier, and made a name for himself in a single battle before riding into the Central Plains. The court was a treacherous web of shifting powers, as princes and great families fought for power and the throne, their open clashes and hidden schemes unrelenting. He plunged into the tumult of politics, and though conspiracies and blades surrounded him, his extraordinary insight and cunning always turned the tide. Amid the struggle between rival factions, he took control of the court and avenged his family. When China is weak, foreign peoples set their sights on conquering the Central Plains. With war flaring along the frontier, he took up arms and fought across the land. So many famed generals were buried beneath the earth, so many loyal ministers bled their hearts dry. After a thousand years, the dynasty still could not escape the chains of feudal rule. Looking back, he has his beloved by his side, fine furs on his shoulders and a spirited steed beneath him. He has not let down the young man he once was.
