[Fantasy × National Destiny × Emperor × Swordsmanship × Taoism × Imperial Court]
He went from a hungry and cold orphan to a powerful national advisor, but he quietly returned to his hometown one afternoon without anyone knowing him.
That winter, officers and soldiers took away everything from Li Yu's family. When he was on the verge of death, he was rescued by the old Taoist Qingxuanzi and was taken into the mountains to watch. The master taught him magic, and even told him: magical power is medicine, not a knife; to practice, you must first understand the word "human" that stands tall and upright.
Many years later, he assisted the Dragon Emperor to overthrow corruption, used magic to build canals to divert water, and opened schools to break monopolies so that women could stand in the court. He personally created a prototype of peace where magical powers serve the people and everyone has hope.
Until he retires after success and returns home with gray hair. In the small town teahouse, the princess talked about "that benefactor Mr. Li" and he smiled slightly: "I have never heard of it."
Memories came flooding back - cold death, warm half a cake, porridge in Taoist temples, smoke on the battlefield, court affairs... All the roads started in that winter, and they all seemed to be aimed at returning to this ordinary afternoon with smoke curling from the kitchen stove.
This is a story about loss and gain, strength and responsibility, and how a person finally reconciles with himself and his homeland after traveling a long way.
May all the people in the world wear jade robes,
Everything in the world is life.
Life and the people are the most important thing, and the great road is the lightest thing.
Immortals and demons will not bully you, ghosts and gods will not invade you.
Wherever there are laws and regulations, we should protect the common people.
Anyone with magical powers should maintain peace.
Standing between heaven and earth with this body,
Protect my people and keep my heart!
