Synopsis

One dream, and I entered the Great Song dynasty, my soul returned to Ximen Qing. The sandalwood incense was warm, the tiger-skin chair cold. I had been in Yanggu County, waiting for fate to raise and lower the bamboo pole at the street corner. But when the west wind swept the curtain aside, there was no Jinlian. Instead, a sickly beauty shrouded in white gauze appeared, her graceful figure swaying like a delicate flower unable to withstand the wind. From the splendid cage known as “Red Chamber,” she brought both wealth beyond measure and a deadly secret. Fate is a game of chess; once a piece is placed, there is no taking it back. When Jinlian's wild fire meets Xifeng's dazzling brilliance, when the warmth of the jade vase touches Baochai's composure, when Chunmei's fierce loyalty faces Daiyu's lofty solitude, all the unparalleled beauties in this garden become my pieces on the board and my honored guests. I wield medicine as a knife to lay open the human heart; I use schemes as bait to catch princes and nobles. The world calls me a libertine, but it does not know that my amorous ways are enough to overturn the realm.
