Succession War

At the Lunar New Year’s Eve in the 3rd year of JIAQING Era, QIANLONG as usual writes calligraphy with words of blessings at the Yangxin Hall and bestows it upon his son JIAQING.

At the first Day of the Lunar New Year, all the court officials are gathering inside of the Yangxin Hall as well as outside.

With PRINCE YONGXUAN purchasing a large amount of firearms and hiding them in his residence in the capital...

Hearing the death knell coming from the palace, HESHEN worships the heavens, pouring out wine to bid farewell to QIANLONG.

FUCHANG’AN is very uneasy, but HESHEN doesn’t panic at all, because JIAQING is the one whom he taught!

A fictional account about the last 28 days of Qing dynasty court official Heshen, known for being the most corrupt court official in Chinese history.
