Synopsis of the story of "Xiu Gu Ling Yun Fei"
In the chaotic times of the late Sui Dynasty and early Tang Dynasty, Qin Qiong, a young man from Dyefang in Licheng County, was involved in the undercurrent of officialdom because he helped the blind man Su Ding to rescue the siege. The county prime minister Wang Hu collaborated with the Turks and wanted to seize the Sui Army Defense Plan from Su Ding. Qin Qiong received the guidance of the invisible knight "Mr. Silent", and relied on the unique skill of "listening to the voice to identify moves", and teamed up with the county lieutenant Li Mi to defeat Wang Hu's conspiracy, and since then stepped into the vortex of the rivers and lakes and officialdom.
Since then, Qin Qiong followed Li Yuan, Li Shimin and his son, and personally experienced historical milestones such as the Taiyuan uprising, the siege of Chang'an, and the Xuanwu Gate Incident. He made outstanding achievements with his horse on the battlefield and was awarded the position of "General Manager of the Horse Army"; privately, he socialized with literati such as Lu Zhaolin and Wang Han, and witnessed the birth of famous works such as "The Ancient Meaning of Chang'an" and "Liangzhou Ci". During this period, a group of hidden heroes such as the horseman Lao Zhou and the coppersmith Lao Feng secretly helped him many times to help him resolve crises such as Li Chengqian's rebellion and Turkic attacks on the border. They also helped him understand the principle of "the reincarnation of heaven, and the hermit's permanence".
In the story, Qin Qiong not only experienced the swords and shadows of the martial arts world, but also witnessed the twists and turns of officialdom: he witnessed the dispute between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin for the throne, assisted Wei Zheng in speaking out and remonstrated, and participated in the establishment of the "Guanmin Pavilion" to spread martial arts and protect the people. In his later years, Qin Qiong looked down on fame and fortune, and returned to Licheng Dyeing Shop, watching children practice "Field Boxing" and looking back on his half-life - from a young man in the city to a founding hero, from a knight in the world to a hermit. Finally, in the smoke and fire, he realized that "every business has its flaws, and keeping one's duty will lead to the Qingming". The true meaning of life, and the turmoil of the Sui and Tang Dynasties and the legends of the hidden heroes also turned into a heavy chapter in the long history with the arrival of the Zhenguan era.
