Description
“The Ten-year Dream” tells a story involving General Yang Yue of the Sui dynasty. He leads his troops against the state of Chen and kills the king. The king’s sister, Princess Lechang, devises a plan with her husband, Xu Deyan, for the survival of the lineage. Disguising himself as a staff officer, the husband takes a copy of the royal genealogy to Liang, and they each take one half of a mirror as a token of their future reunion. Yang Yue is filled with admiration and pity for Princess Lechang, and he decides to take her as his wife and adopt her child. Nine years later, while at a market purchasing old mirrors, Xu Deyan meets his son. Learning about his wife and son, he decides to reunite with them. Although they still recall the days when they were a couple, they find it hard to rekindle their love because of the changed circumstances. Learning that the ex-husband is still alive, Yang Yue offers to abdicate, and Lechang, torn between the two men she loves, considers her fate.
