March in Chang'an is hazy and hazy, and a down-and-out noble son is dormant in the market, carrying family secrets and an unknown past. Carrying a clean body, he moved around among wealthy families, struggling in the whirlpool of power and intrigue, but in the glitz and glamor, he glimpsed the passion and purity deep in the human heart.
From being unknown to becoming famous, he examines ancient etiquette from a modern perspective and uses his penetrating mind to dismantle the ways of the world. Undercurrents in the court are intertwined with turmoil in the world, family grudges are entangled with the love of his children. He loses his youthfulness in the choices he makes, and tempers his edge in each confrontation.
Along the way, there are loyal friends, enemies with hidden evil intentions, and a good match that falls in love at first sight. He once hesitated because of the coldness of the world, and put up defenses because of the unpredictability of people's hearts, but as he grew up, he finally understood that the so-called strength means being able to keep one's heart and protect one's love.
The sword is hidden in the brocade, and the true love is found in the city of Chang'an. Using his pen as his blade and his wisdom as his armor, he bucked the trend of the times and wrote a legend about persistence, transformation and affection under the magnificent curtain, and finally lived the way he wanted.
