There were not many plots in the game but every plot was very important.
There were several endings to the game 'Shu Li'.
First of all, within the imperial city, players could choose to support different prince and give advice when this prince made a certain decision.
The choices made by these prince and the protagonist's suggestions were directly related to the following plot.
For example, when the alien race invaded, different prince would have different choices. The protagonist could participate in the battle at different stages of the alien race's invasion.
The earlier he went, the more likely it was that he would drive the alien race out and reduce the situation of commoners being killed. However, he might also not have the time to solve the internal conflict in the central plains.
