[Volume 1: The Mystery of the Young Master] Emperor Xuanwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty died overnight, and the five-year-old prince Yuanxu was hurriedly promoted to the throne. Various forces officially launched a campaign to encircle and suppress the Gao family. However, the turmoil in the palace did not calm down with the death of the powerful minister Gao Zhao, and the treacherous power struggle in Luoyang continued. Power changed hands again and again, causing huge waves that rippled across the world. The young emperor Yuan Xu grew up amidst the battles in the harem and the disputes between the government and the opposition. The deaths of the four assistant ministers heralded that the golden age of the Wei Dynasty was gone forever. At this time, far away in Wuchuan in the north, the peaceful life of the girl Chi Nuheng was broken by a long-simmering rebellion. The vast number of northerners moving south dealt a heavy blow to the precarious fortune of this dynasty. At the time when the Wei court was in trouble both internally and externally, the secrets of the royal family that had been hidden for many years were quietly revealed, completely tearing apart the remaining tenderness in the heart of the young emperor Yuanxu... Forces from four directions including Rouran outside the Great Wall, the Great Wall Fort, the Southern Kingdom of the Yangtze River, and the Hu tribe in the Western Regions came one after another, vying for the throne in the Central Plains. The stars have changed and people have changed. The only thing that remains unchanged is the sound of the bells that echo in the sky of Luoyang, like an elegy for the times. ————————————————————————This article is not strictly researched, and the titles in it do not strictly follow the titles of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and many are more biased towards the habits of contemporary readers.
