CHINESE DRAMA : NIRVANA IN FIRE 琅琊榜 VOL.1-47 END (2015)

STORY:

In sixth-century China, the Emperor of Great Liang orders the unjust execution of his brother-in-law Marshal Lin Xie alongside the Lin family, his 70,000 army soldiers, and Crown Prince Qi. Secretly surviving the massacre is Lin Xie's son, Lin Shu, who undergoes medical treatment that changes his appearance entirely and leaves him in a weakened state, unable to ever perform martial arts again. Lin Shu changed his name to Mei Chang Su and later became the chief of the pugilist world and established the Jiangzuo Alliance.
Twelve years later, Mei Chang Su returns to the capital with a secret plan after being sought after by Prince Yu and Prince Xian during their fight for the throne. He decides to covertly assist Prince Jing, the unfavoured son of the Emperor, and wisely rids the court of all scheming officials.
梅长苏（胡歌饰）本远在江湖，却名动帝辇。江湖传言：“江左梅郎，麒麟之才，得之可得天下。”作为天下第一大帮“江左盟”的首领，梅长苏“梅郎”之名响誉江湖。然而，有着江湖至尊地位的梅长苏，却是一个病弱青年、弱不禁风，背负着十多年前巨大的冤案与血海深仇，就连身世背后也隐藏着巨大的秘密。
原来，十二年前，南梁大通年间，北魏兴兵南下，赤焰军少帅林殊随父出征、率七万将士抗击敌军，不料七万将士因奸佞陷害含冤埋骨梅岭。林殊从地狱之门拾回残命，历经至亲尽失、削骨易容之痛，化身天下第一大帮江左盟盟主梅长苏。
十二年后，梅长苏假借养病之机、凭一介白衣之身重返帝都，从此踏上复仇、雪冤与夺嫡之路。面对曾有婚约的霓凰郡主（刘涛饰）、旧时的挚友靖王萧景琰（王凯饰）以及过去熟悉的所有，他只能默默隐忍着一切，于看似不经意间，以病弱之躯只手掀起波波血影惊涛，辅佐明君靖王登上皇位，为七万赤焰忠魂洗雪了污名。
然而由于梁武帝晚年的昏乱治理，南朝境内纷乱四起，已代北魏而立的东魏趁机兴兵南下，朝中一时竟无人能够领兵。为解国难，梅长苏不顾身体病弱，毅然束甲出征，仅用三个月时间，带领大梁军队一举平定北境狼烟，还大梁以和平安定。而此时的梅长苏，也煎熬尽了自己最后的一点心血，在沙场上走完了自己的一生
