In the nineteenth year of Jinglong, Beishuo's power waned. Seeking protection, it hoped to establish friendly relations with Jing and sent its heir, Ashina Huaijin, to pay tribute at the Jing court.
He was a battle-hardened general, renowned far and wide. Ordered to escort the delegation to the capital, he was trapped there by an imperial decree.
He was adrift, with nowhere to turn. To keep his young brother from being sold, he risked making a pact with a tiger and threw himself into the trap.
From the smoke and flames of battlefields to the bustle of the streets, he fought covered in blood and became a bargaining chip. Once he'd achieved fame and success and shed his honors, all he wished for was to farm beside you from dawn to dusk, sharing every morning and evening.
Main CP: Yuan Qi, an upright and loyal general, and Sang Wen, a resilient and optimistic young servant.
Ink stains his court robes as he schemes for the realm; he advances step by step at his sovereign's side. His original purpose never changes, and in the end, the land remains safe through turbulent times.
Side CP 1: Mu Ningfeng, an unrestrained and patient illegitimate prince, and Su Mingyun, a laid-back, meticulous minor official.
They guard the road home with spears and armor, and a single promise binds them for the rest of their lives. They make the realm their pledge, protect the vast northern deserts, and hope for peace year after year.
Side CP 2: Ashina Huaijin, a refined and perceptive heir, and Han Yizhou, a sincere, somewhat clueless commandant.
