The story takes place in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the most unruly period in Chinese history, with the fall of Sui and Tang dynasties and the rise of a group of heroes, Wang (played by Chow Yun-Fat) embraced the army as a captain of the forbidden army, and in order to status, he annihilated his wife's family and married the Princess of Liang (played by Gong Li) as a queen, and the rising army finally got the support of the King of Liang, which consolidated the power.
The story of A City Full of Gold Armor takes place before the 25th Chung Yeung Festival.
At that time, his ex-wife left behind a son, Yuan Xiang (played by Liu Ye), and the Princess of Liang and the King gave birth to a second son, Yuan Jie (played by Jay Chou), and a third son, Yuan Cheng (played by JJ Qin). Over the years, the king has been fighting in the north and the south, and the country has become so powerful that he has made his eldest son, Yuan Xiang, the crown prince, and his most admired son, Yuan Jie, the general, guarding the borders, while Yuan Cheng has yet to reach adulthood. The king could not forget his ex-wife, but he lied that she was dead. On the day of Chung Yeung Festival, he hung her portrait in the back of the palace and stood there for a long time in memory of her. The relationship between the king and the queen was never good, and the queen was lonely. One day, the queen committed adultery and incest with the crown prince, which broke the rules. The king did not want to publicize this incident, so he wanted to turn the queen into a vegetable and abolish the crown prince to establish Yuanjie. Who knows that the king's ex-wife is not dead, married to Dr. Jiang, gave birth to a daughter Jiang Chan, in the palace and the crown prince to develop feelings, so in twenty-five years after the day before the Chung Yeung ......
Wang is a man of rules, he dined on the table is round, the table is square, because the "sky is round and square" is the rule;; the table is round, the table is square, the table is square, the table is round, the table is square, the table is round, the table is round, the table is round, the table is round, the table is square.
The king was a man of rules, his dinner table was round, the table was square, because "the sky is round, the place is square" is the rule; the family dinner seat has never been messed up, he often warned his family, the reason why the family became a family, the reason why the country can be set up as a country, because there is the existence of the rules.
And the king's rules were his own.
Power is temptation, and the highest power, the power to make rules, is the greatest temptation of all. The king said more than once to the second prince Yuanjie: "give you can only want, I do not give, you can not rob." This is the king to Prince Jie's rules, but he has forgotten that the power to make rules, precisely he snatched twenty-five years ago. The rule he gave to the queen was "if you are sick, you have to take your medicines on time", which sounds logical, but the problem is that the king has to decide whether the queen is sick or not.
