At the end of the Jin dynasty, the land was shattered and the mountains and rivers lay in ruins. Four hundred years of rule, yet two emperors shared one hall: the Eastern and Western Jin dynasties.
The Eastern Jin was on the brink of collapse. Treacherous ministers held sway within, while the Western Jin had declared itself independent beyond its borders. The Eastern Jin emperor was weak, and his beloved, simpleminded princess was married to the young general Wen Yangui. All he asked was that the loyal Wen clan, whose generations of generals had served the dynasty, protect his branch of the Eastern Jin line.
The Liu family's daughter, Si Nian Linglong, sat at ease in her manor, waiting for her husband to welcome a new bride.
Gongye Zhenyi: Heh. The young general is actually a woman in red tassels. My consort, what am I supposed to do with you?
Liu Zhaoxi: So what if I'm a woman? I've always liked women!
Wen Yangui: All I ask is to spend my whole life with one person, and one person alone.
The land lies shattered and the mountains and rivers in ruins. Amid the fires of war and the songs of Yue, there is true love, there are schemes, and there are choices that are hardest to make.
A beautiful general, a simpleminded princess, the daughter of a powerful minister: a tale of countless twists and turns.
