SYPNOSIS

At the end of the Ming Dynasty. The Imperial Palace. Eastern Depot¹. Jinyiwei². Jianghu³.

The sound of the cold wind howling, the mountains and rivers’ scenery is vague.

Lu Yao rides his horse through Jiangnan⁴ “In troubled times, people still need a home to return to”

Pei Jianwen stands alone, stained with blood, “On what grounds do you think we will live and die together?”

Feng Feng, drunk, holds a cup, “A person lives a lifetime, and ultimately must have something to yearn for.”

Feng Sheng, crying and smiling, “Congratulations, Governor. You sought the world and got the world.”

As dusk falls, the wine has worn off, and the person has already gone far. The wind and rain fill the sky as they fall on the western tower.
