Once Yunzheng opened a door, there was no turning back. That's life. Once the arrow is released, there's no going back. If you want to turn back, a hundred years have already passed. This is a novel about the way of being a teacher, about the wisdom of survival, about human warmth, about brotherhood, and about gentleness, humility, and kindness. It contains the most beautiful love and the deepest brotherhood... Perhaps, I really want to slowly unfold "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" to give you a different view of the Song Dynasty and a different perspective on human life...
