Late in the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Xizong cared only for pleasure. It was during this period that most of the land was swallowed up by powerful clans. After Huang Chao's uprising failed, the Tang Dynasty fell into even greater ruin, paving the way for the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. This was not a single dynasty, but the most chaotic period in history since the Spring and Autumn and Warring States eras. In this turbulent age, we follow a young member of one of the “Five Surnames and Seven Great Clans” as he tries to create a peaceful home for his family.
