The Lights Are Gone and the Snow Is Gone

"When the Lights Go Out and the Snow Never Returns" is a sadomasochistic group portrait of women in ancient costumes. Young protégé Wen Renzhaoque and Fuxue Tan, an orphan of the medical clan, met over an old copper lamp in the snow at the beginning of the abandoned palace. She saved his life and taught him that there is no shame in saying it hurts; he remembers the light, but doesn't know who is holding the light. Many years later, the war in the north, the old case of Fushi, and the intrigues of the court came one after another. The two came closer again and again, but were pushed away again and again by the responsibility of family and country, blood feud and misunderstanding. She holds a silver needle in her hand and just wants to find out the truth; he wears armor to guard the city, and would rather bear the stigma than let her be put in danger. The wolf talisman, the old lamp, the medicine bag, the rabbit lamp, every tenderness left behind in my youth later became the knife handed to me by fate. When the snow falls in the north and old cases are reopened, the teenagers who once watched the lights together are also involved in a chess game from which they cannot turn back. Some people guard the country, some people guard love, and some people guard a belated truth. This time, before the lights go out, can they finish talking about the life they missed?
