Jin Yuan Ci

During the Yongkang period of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial capital Luoyang looked prosperous on the outside, but was crawling with maggots inside... The power stranglehold between the relatives and the eunuchs has reached the point where they can be seen clearly. The Jiang family, a seemingly stable family of middle-class officials, is the perfect epitome of the glitz and glamor of this apocalyptic world... There is no golden finger here, only the inevitability of fate: When the fire in the palace ignites, when loyalty turns into evidence of crime, when relatives and friends instantly draw a clear line... The veil of the prosperous age is bloodyly torn open. The singing at the poetry meeting, the wit at the banquet, the joy of the New Year, all the tender daily life have become the poignant prelude to the imperial elegy. "The allies you thought may be the real culprits behind the scenes; the mortal enemies you thought may be offering a glimmer of hope in the dark. At the critical moment of the family's survival, each character is struggling to survive in the gray area of ​​human nature. There is no absolute good or bad, only the endless lamentation brought about by stance and choices."
