A sweeping historical epic with a large ensemble cast, an unpredictable court, and heroes from every walk of life gathering to restore the Song realm.
In the second year of the Zhenglong era of Jin, on the eve of the imperial examinations, assassins broke into the Privy Council in the Jin capital of Zhongdu. Dozens of guards were killed. Jin ruler Wanyan Liang was furious. Yet Wanyan Yong, Prince Ge and governor of the Eastern Capital, caught the assassins in just four hours and quelled the attack on the Privy Council.
In the fourth year of the Zhenglong era, Jin ruler Wanyan Liang broke his word, tore up the treaty, and invaded Song territory in the south. At that time, Emperor Zhao Gou of the Southern Song had long since grown weary of war, while Prince Jian, Zhao Shen, insisted on resisting the Jin. The Song court was locked in a bitter standoff between the factions for peace and war. The Han Chinese who had submitted to the Jin also remained devoted to the Southern Song, longing to return south, launch a northern campaign, regroup their forces, and reclaim their homeland.
P.S. The prose and writing style are both robust. The history is researched, though some details are invented to serve the plot. Please read this novel with a historical materialist perspective. It is not intended to undermine ethnic integration.
