Xie An Returns from Seclusion, Xie Xuan Wins at Feishui

The Jin court has fled south, and the realm teeters amid storms.

With his elder brother dead of illness and his fourth younger brother defeated in battle, the century-old Xie clan of Chen Commandery is on the brink of collapse. At the family’s darkest hour, Xie An is forced to leave his retreat on East Mountain and return to the maelstrom in Jiankang.

Within the court, he navigates the ambitions of powerful ministers and the emperor’s suspicions, using peerless wisdom to avert the clan’s destruction. Beyond it, he directs the campaign from behind the scenes, helping Xie Xuan establish the Beifu Army. At the Battle of Fei River, his forces rout Fu Jian’s million-strong army with just eighty thousand men, preserving the culture and traditions of the Han people.

Relive the spirit of the Wei and Jin dynasties and the politics of the great clans. See how Xie An secures the realm and brings peace to its people with a smile and a few words.
