Overview: Based on a true story from the eighth century, it is a fictionalized telling of one of the most powerful, tragic chronicles in Chinese history: the events leading up to the Rebellion of An Lu-shan and the fall of the Emperor Minghuang, grandson of the Iron Empress Wu, and with him, the Precious Consort Yang Kuei-fei and the dazzling Yang family. All of the major characters are real people, immortalized in the works of renowned T’ang poets Li Po and Tu Fu. In 738, rational Confucianism extant, the T’ang restored after the depredations of the Empress Wu, it is a time of expansion, peace and artistry. The Emperor is a ruler of extraordinary humanity, his justice and compassion legendary. An ambitious minor court consort, inspired by tiny characters painted on silk flowers delivered to her chambers, suggesting a greater destiny for her, makes a bold play. The favored crown prince is murdered and the current Empress framed. But the conniving woman is no Wu Tse-tien: weak and vacillating, she goes mad with guilt, her scheme collapsing. Chief Minister Li Lin-fu, a man for whom the term “Machiavellian” is too mild, himself a great admirer of the Iron Empress, watches the various threats to the security of the Empire by invaders in the far northern territories. Li Lin-fu is content to let the artistic, compassionate emperor be a figurehead, but knows that the hard work of realpolitik governance rests with him. Observing the Emperor’s descent into apathy and grief in the wake of the crown prince’s murder, Li Lin-fu recognizes an opportunity. He brings to court from the far north an up-and-coming ex-slave whose daring military exploits have earned him rank and reputation. An Lu-shan is rough, huge, bearded, uncouth and uneducated, but Li Lin-fu intends to gain control of him and use him to secure the northern territories. Ah, but the best-laid plans….. The grandeur, mystery, eroticism, horror, sensuality and scope of this tale unfold in settings as far flung as the Imperial court, the shimmering Pure Flower Hot Springs pleasure resort, the windswept, desolate north, the fever-infested prison island of Hainan, and finally, the piney mountains of far western Szechuan. Barbarians frolic with fine court ladies, betrayals great and small are hatched, eunuchs, poets, courtesans and warriors collude. Weaving in and out around the characters and events from beginning to end is a “shape-changing,” highly-sexed witch (or perhaps just a crazy old woman), who represents the legendary immortal of Taoist lore. No story of the T'ang would be complete without this uncanny element, which gives the tale a richly fraught extra dimension and removes it far from the ordinary adventure-saga.
