"Heroes with Swords, Guts, Qins and Hearts: The Legend of the Four Chivalrous Women" tells the story of four legendary women who transcended the shackles of the times. With their wisdom, swordsmanship, loyalty, courage and loneliness, they carved indelible chivalrous figures in the long scroll of history.
Hongfu is a bright light in the late Sui Dynasty. As a singing prostitute in the Sikong Prefecture, she met the hero Li Jing in the dust. She escaped from prison with a terrifying night run and became the "Three Heroes of the Dust" with the bearded man.
Nie Yinniang was an extraordinary swordsman in the middle Tang Dynasty. When he was young, he was taken away by an expert and practiced the swordsmanship of Tongtian. He could transform into flying insects and hide his blade invisible. In the bloody turmoil of the feudal town, she used her wisdom beyond the world to break away from the fate of an assassin and find her own way.
Liang Hongyu was a drum in the war of the Southern Song Dynasty. She was born in a general family and fell into the world of prostitution, but she had the insight to recognize Han Shizhong before she met him. In times of crisis, she flew on horseback to deliver edicts to quell chaos; on the battlefield, she personally held drums and trapped 100,000 gold soldiers with eight thousand navy troops, beating the strongest voice of women serving the country.
Lu Siniang is a sword of revenge tempered by the souls of enemies in the early Qing Dynasty. Her family was brutally massacred by the Literary Prison, and she suffered a blood feud. She escaped from afar and practiced hard. Finally, on a full moon night, she broke into the palace alone and took Yongzheng's head with a sword, completing her fight against tyranny in the most decisive way.
The four chivalrous women may be entrusted in the dust, some may be seeking enlightenment outside the country, some may be side by side on the battlefield, or some may be avenged by blood relatives. In different ways, they demonstrated women's extraordinary courage, wisdom and affection, and jointly wrote a heroic epic about independence, courage and chivalry.
