Fallen Leaves and Willow Green

While returning to China to deal with matters such as the sale of my old residence, I happened to see an advertisement for the purchase of Yangliuqing paintings and sculptures. The piece of Yangliuqing paintings that I had purchased at an exorbitant price was exactly a Yangliuqing painting sculpture that I had discarded at home before I traveled across the ocean. This piece was made in the early Ming Dynasty. It is meticulously carved and ingeniously crafted with a complex background. It hides an unbearable past event in my old career. When I saw the advertisement, I wanted to sell it. I also wanted to make a clean break with everything in the past. Unexpectedly, when he went to sell it, he fell into a trap, which led to a thrilling story of love and hatred that spanned dynasties and generations, with twists and turns.
