On Suzaku Street, the umbrella seller Yao Jing waits steadfastly for Shen Yan, who has yet to return from guarding the frontier. She makes umbrellas with the broken arrow he left behind as their frames, keeping his memory close. The foreign prince Yelukui arrives in search of his elder brother. When he sees the umbrella, he asks in shock whether its frame was made from his royal brother's broken arrow. Thus begins a search and entanglement that spans nations and families.
