During the Anti-Japanese War, in order to avoid the destruction of national cultural relics, a batch of Forbidden City cultural relics resources were urgently transferred. Under the instructions of his superiors, underground party member Chu Shenyu used his own favorable conditions to secretly engage in the transfer of cultural relics using Chu Garden in Peking as a transfer station.
The so-called Chu Garden is a shop that buys, sells and appreciates antiques, but the backyard is actually a unique place. The Sihe Courtyard, lake and rockery is isolated from the world and outsiders are not allowed to enter or exit at will. It is a paradise hidden in Peking.
During this period, the opportunity of an ancient machine box made Chu Shenyu meet Mingchen, who was a student of Huangpu Military Academy. The moment Mingchen stepped into the backyard of Chuyuan, Chu Shenyu no longer just had a fate of being alone. The two went from acquaintance to mutual understanding amidst the national crisis of internal and external troubles. Enduring class antagonism, the hardship of life, and the hidden oppression... All in order to one day win.
"It's for you and everyone's home that I choose to fight like this."
