    The most moving aspect is the complex tapestry of human nature. Song Mingfei, driven by obsession and madness, is single-mindedly focused on avenging the wrongfully killed general, yet this harms the common people; Kang Yunshu is torn between old friends and her country; the Emperor, wary of meritorious officials, is plagued by nightmares day and night. Everyone has their own grievances, and no one escapes unscathed, embodying the sentiment, "Peace was established by the general, but the general is not allowed to see peace."
