Love and choices across time and space

While tracing the origins of the Tang Dynasty relics, the protagonists accidentally met a mysterious old man. The old man looked ordinary, but his eyes revealed a deep wisdom and experience.

While investigating an ancient town, the protagonists discovered a dilapidated temple. Although the temple had fallen into disrepair, it still exuded a solemn and awe-inspiring atmosphere. When they entered the temple, they saw an old man sitting in a corner, silently gazing at an ancient Buddha statue.

Out of curiosity, Xiao Li approached the old man and started a conversation. The old man looked up at Xiao Li and smiled, as if he had anticipated their arrival. Xiao Li asked the old man about the Tang Dynasty relics, and to his surprise, the old man knew the origins of the jade pendant in detail.

The old man told them that he had been a court painter, serving the imperial family during the Tang Dynasty. He had witnessed many of the palace's secrets and stories, and had a deep understanding of that period of history. The old man explained that the patterns and inscriptions on the jade pendant were indeed related to an event from the Tang Dynasty, one that involved the rise and fall of the imperial family and a hidden conspiracy.

The protagonists were deeply attracted by the old man's words and begged him to tell them more details. The old man was silent for a moment, and then slowly began to narrate that distant history.

It turns out that during the Tang Dynasty, the struggle for the throne was extremely fierce. The loyal minister commemorated by the jade pendant was actually a prince caught up in the palace struggle. He was upright and kind, deeply loved by the people, but he was envied and framed by the other princes.

In a conspiracy, the prince was framed for a serious crime and forced to leave the palace. However, he did not give up, but secretly accumulated strength, preparing to expose the conspiracy and clear his name.

The old man said that the jade pendant was commissioned by the prince to be made by a craftsman before he left the palace. The patterns and words on the jade pendant embody the prince's beliefs and determination, and are also the clues he left for future generations.

The protagonists listened attentively, as if they had traveled back to the Tang Dynasty and experienced that thrilling period of history firsthand. The old man's narration gave them a deeper understanding of the significance of the jade pendant and a new perspective on the history of the Tang Dynasty.

When the old man finished his story, the protagonists were filled with gratitude. They realized that the old man's appearance was not accidental, but destiny. The old man also seemed to have high hopes for the protagonists. He encouraged them to continue exploring the truth of history and not let this past be buried.

In the days that followed, the protagonists forged a deep friendship with the old man. The old man became their mentor and advisor, providing them with valuable advice and guidance. With the old man's help, the protagonists made breakthrough progress in their research.

They discovered more clues about the court struggles of the Tang Dynasty and gradually uncovered the truth of the conspiracy. It turned out that the mastermind behind the conspiracy was a powerful minister who, for his own benefit, used all means to frame the prince and tried to support his puppet to ascend the throne.

The protagonists decided to expose the conspiracy to the public and let the truth of history come to light. They used their influence to hold a grand lecture to tell people about the unknown history of the Tang Dynasty.

The lecture caused a sensation, and people were shocked and indignant at the protagonists' discoveries. They called for in-depth research and reflection on that period of history to prevent similar tragedies from happening again.

The efforts of the protagonists have been recognized and praised by society, and they have become well-known figures in the field of historical research. However, they did not become proud and complacent, but continued to devote themselves to the study of history and the inheritance of culture.

And the mysterious old man, after completing his mission, quietly left their lives. He was like a guardian, silently guiding the protagonists into the depths of history.

The protagonists know that their mission is not over yet. They will continue to move forward, explore more historical mysteries, and let those forgotten stories shine again.
