"Oh my god, what I dreamed about yesterday was just like the pond pavilion. I just want to have an old dream again, but it brings me a new sorrow."
——"The Peony Pavilion·Looking for Dreams" [Ming Dynasty] Tang Xianzu
In the third year of Daguan, the "Ni Shuihan" case occurred, shocking both the government and the public.
In the winter of the first year of Zhenghe, "one-handed" Qi Shaoshang was ordered by the Shenhou Mansion to investigate the case. He went south to Hangzhou and met Gu Xichao who was kneeling in front of the Buddha in Lingyin Temple.
It was snowing heavily in Hangzhou that day, and they looked at each other from a distance. Qi Shaoshang's white clothes are better than snow, but Gu Xichao's green clothes are thin.
After that, twenty years passed and the world changed.
In the second year of Shaoxing, Hangzhou became the capital of a country and was renamed "Lin'an".
On a spring day, Qi Shaoshang, the owner of the "Golden Wind Drizzle Building", and Helian Acacia, the only daughter of the Helian family, went out for an outing. However, in the stable of a suburban inn, they met Gu Xichao, who was down and out and seriously ill.
And when Gu Xichao struggled back from the gate of hell, he woke up again, and what he saw was Qi Shaoshang's mansion in Lin'an.
They were supposed to be strangers in this life, but they met each other again.
What happened twenty years ago seemed like a big dream. Now, two people who are unwilling to accept each other, do they want to have their old dream come back?
