I disagree with the deletion of the other synopsis because that one actually focuses on the main plot involving the main character (the last princess played by Huo Si Yan) according to a cited and reliable source whereas the current one focuses only on a supporting character played by Leila Tong. --Lady Zhuge 00:52, 7 May 2007 (CDT)
- The "alternate synopsis" is plagiarized from another site, even though it is a translation. We MUST write our own synopses from scratch. Take the information from Sina as inspiration, and work the information into the existing synopsis. Groink 00:57, 7 May 2007 (CDT)
- Forgot... Keep the synopsis to 150 words maximum. Groink 00:59, 7 May 2007 (CDT)
- Did you actually read the sina article? The synopsis wasn't a direct word for word translation, but more of a summarized synthesis from the sina source which I wanted to cite for reference purposes. What's the source of the current synopsis? If nothing is cited, then it's just assumed to be "original, from scratch" work? Because I don't know its source, I can't work much into the existing synopsis given that there seems to be some contradictions in the storyline. However, I've edited the one you deleted to be exactly 150 words:

- This story takes place during the end of the Qing dynasty and centers around princess Yunxiang and actor Wen Liangyu’s love story. Separated the night they'd planned to elope, Yunxiang’s rescued by an enemy of the imperial family, Fang Tianyu. Tianyu falls for Yunxiang and frequently comes between Yunxiang and Liangyu, going as far as plotting to kill Liangyu. Yunxiang thinks Liangyu has perished and tries to kill Tianyu for revenge, but ends up on death row. Wealthy official Shen Shihao also loves Yunxiang and saves her, at which time Yunxiang discovers she's pregnant with Liangyu's child. She marries Shihao in gratitude. Eighteen years later, Liangyu returns as Beijing's most prominent mob ringleader. Unbeknownst to him, his son with Yunxiang, Shen Zikang, has grown up and become a police captain dead set on capturing Liangyu. Further complicating things, Zikang falls in love with Tianyu's daughter Yuyan, but she loves Liangyu. --Lady Zhuge 01:26, 7 May 2007 (CDT)
