In the fifteenth year of the Republic of China, wars raged across the mountains and rivers, and Yuzhou became a land of right and wrong ruled by warlords. Su Qingyi, a daughter of Jiangnan silk industry, entered the troubled times wearing a white orchid embroidered cheongsam, just to revitalize her family's endangered trade route. However, she encountered a mutiny at the dock and almost died in a hail of bullets.
In the thin line between life and death, the iron-blooded marshal Lu Zhengnian arrives from the sky. He was used to seeing blood on the battlefield, but he was attracted by the beautiful shadow of the cheongsam under the moonlight - the bluegrass on the collar was still stiff with dust, and the billowing hem of the skirt hid the tenacity of Jiangnan. He was allowed to make an exception and bring this "troublesome" woman back to the young marshal's house.
It is house arrest, but also protection; it is temptation, but also sinking. He wiped out the chamber of commerce plot for her, and she conveyed military sentiments with embroidery on her cheongsam; he took off his armor to protect her from the wind and rain, and she held a needle to sew for him; when the foreign enemies pressed on, he defended the territory with blood, and she used her business connections to raise food and funds. Her cheongsam was stained with blood and reflected in the moonlight.
In troubled times, duckweed has no one to rely on, but the waning moon in Yuzhou serves as a matchmaker, and the cheongsam serves as a witness, allowing the iron-blooded young marshal and the lady from the south of the Yangtze River to find a love story in the Republic of China, where "I use my bones to protect your clothes, and you use your embroidery to warm my arms." When the beacon fires dissipated and the moonlight remained, their love had long been embroidered into the fabric of the years and became the most touching legend in the turbulent era.
