What are history’s regrets? They are Xiang Yu’s final glance before taking his own life at the Wu River, and Prime Minister Zhuge Liang’s sigh that he could not defeat the enemy on the battlefield. They are the desolate weeds that grow after the clash of swords and horses, the lonely courtyards left behind when prosperity fades, the helpless fading of lofty ambitions, and the silent tears shed when dreams shatter. History’s regrets are the glories buried by the passing years, the names lost to the wind, the unfinished poems, and the choices that cannot be undone.
