Bending the Waist: Childhood Memories

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty was in decline and the world was falling apart. War raging across the Central Plains was raging among the powerful princes, and the people were in dire straits. In this changing and chaotic world, the Wei family rose up in the north and became the overlord of the country by relying on their accumulated heritage and wisdom. The Qiao family was struggling to maintain its existence in Jiangdong. Although it was a prominent family, it was in turmoil due to rampant bandits and the covetousness of surrounding forces. In order to solve the family crisis, Qiao Gong, the master of the Qiao family, resolutely went north to borrow troops from the Wei family. After weighing the pros and cons, Wei Shao's grandfather Wei Cang decided to lend a helping hand and sent elite troops to help the Qiao family quell the chaos in Jiangdong. After the war, in order to consolidate the alliance between the two families, Wei Cang sent the young Wei Shao to the Qiao family. From this, Wei Shao and the Qiao family's Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao began to spend their childhood together. Wei Shao, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao spent countless happy hours in the pavilions and garden horse farm of Qiao's family. They read and read together in the pavilion in the morning, played on the grass in the afternoon, caught dragonflies by the pond in summer, and learned horseback riding and archery at the horse farm. Their friendship became increasingly deeper as they got along day and night. However, when he was fifteen years old, the situation in the north suddenly changed. Wei Shao was recalled to the Wei family to participate in family affairs, and he had no choice but to separate from Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao. This separation set the three of them on different paths in life, but due to the complex situation of troubled times, their destinies became increasingly closely linked.
