[A historical ensemble novel! Every character in this book is based on historical records.]
[This story is adapted from historical sources including A New Account of the Tales of the World and the Book of Jin.]
The Eastern Jin dynasty, a kingdom torn apart by the politics of the great clans.
Huan Wen and Sima Yu.
From the bright promise of youth to bitter estrangement in old age.
One came from a family of military officials, while the other was a fallen scion of the imperial clan.
They met amid the chaos of their times, recognized a kindred spirit in each other, and swore to restore the Central Plains together.
But what they did not know was that the chasms between them, between clan and emperor, common birth and noble lineage, ambition and affection, ran deeper than they could imagine. Joining hands was their vow; going their separate ways was their fate.
This is not a story of a "good person" and a "bad person." It is a story of human nature, friendship, the ways of the world, and even fate itself, all entangled together.
Looking forward to the update. Looking at the introduction, will it have a historical ending...
Why is there no rating for such a beautiful book?
