The background of the story is the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. The characters in the play all come from powerful families in the former Qing Dynasty. The power entanglements between them represent the disputes between various forces in the former Qing Dynasty, the strife of warlords, the mediation of plutocrats, whether the declining aristocracy can regain its past glory, who wants to be the king, and who will surrender to the bandits. The fate of love is no longer just about yourself, but also about the world. In the turbulent whirlpool of the Republic of China, a golden dust is just like sadness. Beyond the broken strings, can there be sincerity? The originally fragmented scenes ended in disgrace after being divided and combined. There is no final winner or complete loser. The story is just a story, as long as everyone has a story.
