In the second year of Shenlong, Princess Taiping fed jade with her blood and sealed the secrets of the Wu Zhou era inside a chi-dragon jade pendant. At the Forbidden City in the twenty-first century, the reincarnated Li Mingda, Princess Jinyang of the Tang dynasty, fell through a rift in time. The chi-dragon patterns in her pupils somehow formed a thousand-year quantum entanglement with phone comments, energy from hospital blood banks, and a bronze armillary sphere.
A history-streamer's shattered phone became an anchor through time. Empress Wei's coup plot and the modern-day “Guardians of Time” hunting her unfolded in parallel. The jade pendant, the armillary sphere, and three meteorite fragments inside Wu Zetian's tomb were the only keys to stabilizing history, with built-in translation so they could understand one another. Should Li Mingda stay in the early Tang to help Li Longji usher in a golden age, or return to the modern era to stop civilization from collapsing? In her hands lay both the means to travel through time and the fate of two eras.
Every leap through time sent ripples through history, and every bloodline resonance concealed a blood-curse cipher. Beginning with the shattering of jade in Chang'an, this journey spanning a thousand years wagered the civilizations of two eras as it unveiled the ultimate truth behind the secrets of Wu Zhou and the chaos in time.
