Dayong Wind and Rain Record

"Dayong Wind and Rain Record" takes Xiao Heng's life as the axis and unfolds the long story of the Dayong Dynasty from prosperity to decline and then to resurgence. The young man who returned to Yan on a cold night entered the official career from Yanyun Old Lane, from Qipin County Magistrate to Border Official, from court battles to border wars. He witnessed the tricks of transporting grain warehouses, uncovered the shady curtain of imperial examination fraud, blocked the mouth of the Yellow River when its embankment burst, and made extraordinary achievements in the Yanmen Victory. But there is always a shadow at the top of power. He was demoted to the miasma of Lingnan, trapped in the whirlpool of Jiangnan nobles, and even forced to retreat to an island; he saw blood splattered on the jade steps of the palace, witnessed the vassal kings making alliances with their blood, drew his sword when the rivers and lakes were in chaos, and took the helm when the rebels started fighting. The power games in the court, the grievances and hatreds in the world, and the joys and sorrows in people's lives are all intertwined in his life. There are beauties practicing medicine in the desert, old friends dying at the border at sunset, the emperor's suspicion and reliance, and the nobles' resistance and return. He built the Yellow River embankment, built a naval camp, promoted the New Deal, and wrote history books. Finally, in the evening photos of his hometown, he watched his children and grandchildren around his knees and recalled the ups and downs of his life. This is not the legend of one person, but the mirror image of a dynasty - from the resentment of being humiliated at the city gate, to the glory of all nations coming to court; from the resentment of the people under harsh rule, to the vitality of the New Deal. Xiao Heng's footprints are imprinted on every inch of Dayong's land, and Dayong's rise and fall are also engraved in his bones and blood. The merits and demerits of thousands of years have been left in the history of history. Only when Yan Yun was in the wind, he still remembered the young man's oath: "I would rather live up to Qingyun's ambitions than let down the people of the world."
