A Song of Rainbow Silks

She is the capital's foremost opera star.

When her water sleeves rise, she is Yang Guifei, drunk in the Hall of Eternal Life. When they fall, she is an orphaned survivor of a massacre, facing the lights of ten thousand homes alone.

He is a young general.

At thirteen, he carried her, a baby in swaddling clothes, out of a mountain of corpses. From then on, he tied all his honor and disgrace to her stage.

She doesn't know who he is.

But for fifteen years, he has committed every line she sings, every act's ending, every dreamlike encounter to memory...

A single stirring of the heart throws her into disarray, but a lie strikes her down;

He plots at every turn, thinking everything is under his control, yet unwittingly falls in love;

Three years later, amid the Jiangnan rain, she stands desolate at the center of the stage.

Beneath it, he crosses mountains and seas to attend a reunion after years apart.
