Story introduction
In the thirty-first year of Shaoxing, the 21-year-old Xin Qiji gathered a crowd to revolt. He led 50 cavalry to raid the 50,000 Jin army camp, captured the rebel general alive, and returned south thousands of miles away. He originally thought that he would be able to launch his troops in the Northern Expedition and regain the lost territory, but he did not know that what awaited him was twenty years of suspicion and exclusion from the Southern Song Dynasty court.
From Jiankang Tongpan to the founding of the Flying Tiger Army, from "Ten Essays on Meiqin" to living in Daihu, this "reformed man" walked hard between literati and military generals, rivers and lakes, and temples. A mysterious organization called "Tianji Tower" is secretly manipulating the chess game. The "Beijing Division" of the Jin Kingdom is pursuing him. The three suicide notes left by his grandfather contain secrets that can subvert the Song and Jin Dynasties.
He has met his close friends - his wife Fan Shi, the beauty Yue Yinping, and the enemy general Wan Yanping; he has also experienced betrayal - the person he trusts the most may be the chess piece of Tianji Tower. He wrote about the heroism of "being drunk and burning the lamp to watch a sword", and also lamented the sadness of "however, it was a cold day all autumn".
In the end, he did not die of illness in Qianshan Mountain, but disappeared on horseback into the dusk of Dai Lake. Only those words are left, which are still sung in the world today.
