After Death, Renowned Figures Throughout History Gather on the Other Shore

They should have been the most honored people in the world. Fusu, the First Emperor's eldest son, was driven to his death by a forged edict. Liu Ju, the Martial Emperor's crown prince, was defeated and killed during the Witchcraft Scandal. Li Chengqian, the crown prince of Emperor Taizong, was deposed for plotting rebellion and died in despair. Zhu Biao, the Hongwu Emperor's crown prince, died young, before his father. They all had one thing in common. They died at the hands of their imperial fathers, or on the path to becoming one themselves. After death, they were brought to a secluded estate. Here, they had only three things to do: Find their own path. Carry out missions under Fusheng's guidance and cleanse impurities from the flow of time. Figure out why they had come. And Li Chengqian's first mission immediately ran into Wu Zhao's scheme. She planned to use Chang'an as a furnace and its people as fuel to refine the dragon qi of the Tang dynasty. “I'm not here to awaken anyone. I'm here to watch. To see the Tang dynasty's dragon qi slowly drained away and refined, bit by bit. Then remember. Remember this moment. Remember this pain. Remember the impossible predicament that must be broken.” An ensemble story about four tragic crown princes. Romance, heartbreak, and sweetness. A slow burn, but worth the wait.
