The fictional dynasty "Dayong" has been in existence for more than a hundred years and is in the middle stage of transition. On the surface, the world is at peace, the imperial examination system is perfect, the literary style in the south of the Yangtze River is flourishing, and the northwest military garrison is stable; in fact, the undercurrent is surging - the imperial power is on the side, the cousin "Liu" and the powerful official "Prime Minister Su" are in charge of the court, and they are restricting each other; the local vassal towns are gradually becoming alienated, and the Northwest Jiedu Commander Xiao Lie has a heavy army and secretly hoards grain and grass; there is also the "ancient Luo clan" that has been passed down for thousands of years. Hidden in the water town of the south of the Yangtze River, he guards the "Secret Key of the Yong Dynasty" that is related to the lifeline of the dynasty (it is said to have been left by the founding emperor. It is rumored that collecting the three parts of the secret key can control the royal talismans, quell natural disasters, and even rewrite the inheritance of the dynasty). The ancient tribe is divided into conservatives and liberals due to "whether to join the WTO".
