Features: Zhang Zeduan, the painter of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival," won the admiration of the famous courtesan Li Shishi in the capital. From then on, he rose to prominence, but also became entangled in the feuds between Liangshan and the imperial court. The complex situation made it impossible for him to solely immerse himself in painting, nor could he ignore the facade of a prosperous era. Moreover, the two devoted and kind-hearted female friends by his side further clouded his judgment. The conflicts and disturbances surged at him like a raging fire. He couldn't find a way out, able to do nothing but wait for fate's arrangement.
