I have experienced the bloody storms of the Hongwu Dynasty, and I have been involved in the cruel war of the Jingnan Campaign; I have seen the splendor of the Yongle Dynasty, and I have also seen the prosperity of the Renxuan Dynasty; I have served as a royal guard, and I have also been in the cabinet to pay homage to the prime minister. Wang Yangming and I are close friends, and I also like to visit brothels with Tang Bohu. I am a person forgotten by time. This is my story and our story. I am Li Qing, a poor man tortured by immortality.
