These last days, watched the 10 episodes series The General Nian Gen Yao, starring Chen Hui Min as Nian Gen Yao, Lily Li as his wife, Ching Miao as Emperor Kangxi, Pai Piao as Yong Zheng, and I'm almost sure that is Chang Li who plays the 14th Prince. I enjoyed it a lot. Some scenes were very similar to the ones in the movie Rebellious Reign, where Lung Fong plays Nian Gen Yao, if I remember well. During the series, there are seven characters who appear. They are Nian Gen Yao's friends, and in the dialogue, I heard them called "Jiangnan Qi Xia", which I understood as "The Seven Knights of Jiangnan". As they were six men and one woman, this made me think of the characters called Seven Swords of Xiluo, and I wondered if it could be the same people. Does anyone know anything about this?

The Seven Heroes of Jiangnan and the Seven Swords of Xiluo are different. The former's main storyline occurs in early Qing Dynasty China and the latter's main storyline is focused on later Qing Taiwan.
There were initially Eight Heroes of Jiangnan but the story usually goes that the eldest one, Monk Liaoyin betrayed them.
