"Imperial Beacon Record" is set in an imaginary ancient East Continent. It tells the story of Zhou Dongyi, the fourth prince of the Chen Kingdom, who fled the palace and entered the world in order to pursue the truth about his mother's death ten years ago. However, he was gradually involved in the vortex of court intrigues, Jianghu grudges and the struggle for hegemony among the Three Kingdoms.
At the beginning of the story, Zhou Dongyi changed his name to "Yan Chen" and met the chivalrous girl Luo Jingyao for the first time in Wangdu City. The two did not know each other before they fought. They teamed up to expose the conspiracy of Perak Hall to practice the evil skill "Blood River Training True Solution" with the blood of living people, and went from hostility to cooperation with the young hall master Lei Zhuo and the prefect's son Mu Zongyi to fight against the mastermind behind the scenes. During this period, Zhou Dongyi's true identity was exposed, and the appearance of the Beichen Cavalry closely connected the disputes between the rivers and lakes with the fate of the family and the country.
Later, in order to find the former imperial master who knew the past, Zhou Dongyi and Luo Jingyao went south to Fengling Town and fell into crisis again. The plague was rampant here, and behind the scenes it was Wei's "chief envoy of plague" who used poisonous poison to cause disaster. While fighting side by side with the Rashomon doctor Han Yueli and Sima Huaikong, the son of the Sima family, Zhou Dongyi was shocked to discover that the palace plague that killed his mother ten years ago actually originated from a well-planned conspiracy...
The work combines machinations, martial arts and suspense, creating portraits of young people with distinctive personalities such as Zhou Dongyi, Luo Jingyao and Han Yueli. Amidst the tension between personal grievances and the righteousness of the family and the country, a grand picture of imperial war is slowly unfolding.
