In the snow in Hexi in the middle of winter, the beggar Yan Guichen rescued Chu Yao, the eldest princess of Chu Yao, who was in trouble from a pile of refugees. This encounter tied the bonds between the poor refugees and the royal nobles, and also kicked off the game of imperial power and military power in the Chu Dynasty.
From a beggar among the refugees, with a rusty knife and an obsession to defend the territory, he gradually pulled up the heroes of Hexi Township and became the commander-in-chief of the Hexi Army guarding the northwest. He gained huge popularity among the refugees and poor families. She grew up in a deep palace, but missed the snow in Hexi and the warmth of youth, and was torn between the shackles of the royal family and the love of her children.
The regent Xiao Che threatens the emperor and disrupts the government. The conspiracy of the court is wrapped in the wind and snow and is pressing towards Hexi. The military pay is intercepted and the military power is spied. Yan Guichen has to go to Beijing with the hope of Hexi, but he runs into the prison of the capital.
Should we keep the people in Hexi safe for a while, or should we hold the military power and protect the emperor? Is it to protect the stability of the royal family, or to protect the friendship of young people? In the wind and snow of Dachu, everyone is in the whirlpool of fate, unable to break away or escape.
