Introduction to the work "Double Stars Crossing the River"
The arrogant, coquettish and dandy warlord Gong (Shen Qinglan) VS the cold, tough, affectionate and dramatic counselor Shou (Gu Jinghong)
The fourteenth year of the Republic of China, Peking. Shen Qinglan, the son of a warlord, appears to be a romantic playboy, but in fact he is a core member of a secret cultural relic protection organization. Gu Jinghong, the famous leader of the troupe, overturned half of the city with a single "Drunk Concubine". No one knew that he was an orphan of the former Qing Dynasty prince, and he was responsible for protecting the national treasure for generations.
A conspiracy to plunder the Chinese context pushes two masked people towards each other. Shen Qinglan was ordered by her father to investigate a serious smuggling case involving Japanese businessmen, while Gu Jinghong dealt with all forces for the theater troupe. From the mutual testing of Guanghelou when they first met, to the trust of each other at the critical moment of life and death, in the war of troubled times, they went from suspicion to joining hands, guarding the fire of civilization with wisdom and blood in the black market of cultural relics, secret auctions, and the war's southward migration.
However, the disparity in status is like a natural chasm, and the righteousness of family and country is like mountains and seas. When Shen Qinglan is forced to face a family marriage, when Gu Jinghong's life experience is exposed and is hunted by many parties, and when the shadow of Japan's "Golden Lily Project" hangs over China, they must make a choice between love and responsibility, personal affection and righteousness.
This is a protection and pursuit that spans thirty years. In an era of overturning, two men proved with their lives that some friendships can transcend life and death; some inheritances can penetrate the flames of war. The song in the opera garden has not ended, and the old dream of mountains and rivers is still warm - in troubled times, they are not only guarding the national treasures buried deep in the ground, but also the glimmer of light that never goes out in each other's dark night.
