Today, the minibus is chatting with you about a different Japanese drama. It is adapted from a classic Japanese legend. The story is poignant and horrifying. It is this ancient Japanese drama in ancient costume-"Reihe First Year Edition Guaitan Peony Lantern".
It is said that in Edo (the old name of Tokyo, Japan) in the shogunate period, there was a family named Iijima. The male owner, Heizaemon, was born in the orthodox Kachimoto (a family of high-ranking warriors), and he has inherited the family business for 18 years. The current official position He has also become the chief guard of the general, and his life can be described as a spring breeze.
But a past 20 years ago has always been a heart disease that he didn't want to be mentioned. That was when he was young and energetic, and killed a drunk wandering warrior in a shop selling knives. Twenty years later, the subordinates around Heizaemon had been seriously aging, and had to accept a new helper, but unexpectedly discovered that it was the son of the wandering warrior who was slain by himself. Out of guilt, he decided to cultivate carefully. .
This baby is named Xiaosuke, who looks dazed but not stupid at all. Not only is he loyal to the lord Heizaemon, but also has a calm personality and safe handling. Although a rookie, he has a strong aura and is very popular with the lord. Everyone at home must take him with him.
This old friend Aikawa is a Camel warrior whose family is not as good as Heizaemon. His daughter Ade also fell in love with Takasuke at first sight and named him not to marry.
On the other hand, Heizaemon and his wife Ajin have a flower-like only child named Alu, who is 20 years old and has not yet married. Father
thinks that the reason why this eldest lady hasn't married out yet is because the requirements for choosing a spouse are somewhat high, and she thinks so. The eldest lady
is not deeply involved in the world, and has a simple personality. She doesn't like the second and third sons of officials and officials. She fell in love with Ronin Shinsaburo who was visiting the book stand when the hydrangea was in full bloom.
However, Shin Saburo, a somewhat bookish ronin, is obviously not worthy of our eldest lady Alu in terms of family background. Coincidentally, Shin Saburo’s good friend happened to be Miss Alu’s private doctor, and because of his help, the two were able to meet again.
came and went, the young lady Alu and the ronin son Shinsaburo recognized each other.
Alu's mother, Hirazaemon's wife Ajin, had been frail and sickly, and died shortly after her husband came back from the city. Then, Aguo, her personal maid, had been ambitiously trying to become the new mistress of the Iijima family.
She also hooked up with Alu's cousin, Heizaemon's adopted son Genjiro, and she seemed to be a powerful and ruthless character. This adopted son, Harajiro, is also an idle boy brother, who doesn't seem like a good person.
In order to achieve the goal of becoming the new hostess, A country designed to frame Alu. She was forced to move to Yanagishima, a separate hospital far away from Edo. She couldn't meet her sweetheart, so she died miserably because of lovesickness.
To be honest, the rhythm of the first episode was a bit slow, but the climax started from the second episode. After death, Alu became a ghost. Because she missed her sweetheart Shinsaburo very much, Ami, a maid with a peony lantern, would lead him to find him every night to comfort her suffering. Shinsaburo thinks that it was like this when he got along with Alu,
, but the picture his servant Banzo saw secretly was like this! The development of the plot behind
is bizarre and climaxes. The maid Aguo has become a villain in order to seize power, and Xiaosuke Xiaosuke embarks on a long road to chase the murderer in order to avenge the lord. What stories will happen between them?

The difference from previous versions is that it not only describes the sad and beautiful sadomasochistic relationship between Ronin Shinsaburo and Miss Alu, but also integrates Family portrait stories such as human nature and desire, master-servant friendship, and battles between samurai families.
