Also known as "Allure Butterfly Love", it is a 36-episode TV series produced by Beijing Oriental Feiyun International Film and Television Planning Co., Ltd., directed by Huang Jianzhong and Zhu Decheng, written by Hu Rong and Wang Siyang, starring Zhao Ke, Yang Shuo, Feng Enhe and Du Yulu, and premiered on Shandong Film and Television Channel on August 25, 2013.

The play tells the story of Shanggu, a northern port concession city in the late 1820s, which is full of hypocrisy and true evil. Police Chief Zhuang Jinghe, with mixed joy, waited for his daughter Zhuang Xiaodi, who had studied in the UK for two years, and also waited for the news that her daughter had already married privately in the UK, and the son-in-law was Song Peiwen, the son of customs supervisor Song Bo nian. The father and daughter of the Zhuang family quarreled over this, and Xiao Di ran away from home and was held hostage by the drug dealers who fled in front of her. During the crisis in the process of removing the hostages, Jiang Yucheng, the leader of the police investigation brigade, Ling Yunfei, a small gangster from the slums, and Song Wuping, the adopted son of the Song family, worked together to save XiaoDi. The hostage incident made Zhuang Jinghe's attitude loose, and then he asked Song Bonian to discuss the marriage. That night, Zhuang Jinghe was shot in the study, and XiaoDi was also attacked...
Jiang Yucheng, the captain of the police detective brigade played by Yang Shuo, was born into poverty, but he was both wise and courageous, and his thinking was meticulous, which can be called the Republic of China's version of "Sherlock Holmes". When solving a case, he met the wronged victim Zhuang Xiaodi and helped her to settle her grievances. Yang Shuo has many actions and explosion scenes in the play, which is familiar to him who is accustomed to shooting action scenes, but this time Yang Shuo shows a gentle and tender side on the basis of continuing the tough guy style. In the play, he incarnates as a perfect "flower protector", silently guarding the heroine Zhuang Xiaodi, so that the audience can feel the moving feelings in the chaotic world. In addition, in the shooting, Yang Shuo often argues with the director in order to pursue more perfection in the role, there are many plots that Yang Shuo added through his own understanding of the character, when he has different opinions with the director, he will let the director shoot more according to his own ideas, and then choose the best effect.
Zhuang Xiaodi is the daughter of police chief Zhuang Jinghe, played by Zhao Ke, her personality is optimistic and strong, because her father was mysteriously killed, she returned from Liuyang but was accused of being a "murderer", fortunately, on the eve of being shot, she was saved by the child in her belly, but she was tortured in prison and finally got help from Jiang Yucheng. In order to wash away her grievances, Zhuang Xiaodi staged a thrilling prison escape. This is also the first time in China that a woman has escaped from prison, a novel and unique perspective that makes the audience look forward to it, and innovates the suspense mode of enabling women to pick up the beams, leading the audience to break through the fog and find justice and light.
Song Bonian, played by Feng Enhe, is the father of Shanghai Customs Supervisor and Zhuang Xiaodi's husband Song Peiwen, an old adulterous giant and unscrupulous businessman, who in order to achieve his own goals, hired a murderer to kill his father-in-law, Zhuang Xiaodi, and afterwards framed Zhuang Xiaodi as a murderer, and bribed the judge to put her to death, and even broke with his son Song Peiwen. Feng Enhe has played many negative characters, and in the play, he also brilliantly interpreted the personality and characteristics of the characters, bringing a vivid image interpretation to the audience.
The plot of the play involves prisons, drug lords, vendettas, and bizarre mysteries that hide a love-hate relationship. In general, the theme of this play is very novel, the actor's acting skills are also online, and the director Huang Jianzhong is one of the famous directors in China, but this play still cannot escape the lack of rigorous logic of the domestic drama script, the defect that the character settings are lacking reasonable motives, and even the most basic why is the heroine identified as a murderer? Her motives for killing her father were not clearly explained, so she let the heroine go to prison. It seems that it is deliberately to let the heroine suffer these sufferings in order to interpret the bridge section of "prison escape"...
It can be said that the plot of this play has only a good start, and the orderliness and suspense after the unfolding of the back are weakened, there is no big ups and downs, and the typical tiger head and tail trend. Even with the strength of Yang Shuo and Zhao Ke, coupled with "old drama bones" such as Feng Enhe and Du Yulu, they cannot save the flawed plot. Therefore, the current Douban score of the drama is only 5.9 points, which is really not the normal level of these "famous directors and famous actors", which makes the audience deeply regretful!
