In the troubled times of the Republic of China, war was raging. Diplomat Song Zhiwei and warlord Zheng Yueshen met in an accident at a dinner party. Since then, they have begun a relationship rooted in the righteousness of their family and country.
Song Zhiwei used her talent, knowledge and character to deal with the great powers, deciphered secret messages in foreign languages, argued with the Japanese consul about international law, and protected every inch of her country at the negotiation table; Zheng Yueshen, with both iron and blood and tenderness, eliminated the traitors and traitors in the warlords' struggle for power, and protected peace in the bloodbath on the battlefield. The two cooperated tacitly from the assassination case to the public declaration of "my soulmate" at the ball at the Governor's Mansion.

She agreed with tears. The separation of the war after the September 18th Incident, the longing for long-distance people who persisted in Chongqing, and the troubled times after Fengtian was restored. At the wedding ceremony, their love has always been bound to the fate of their country and home: she spoke at the League of Nations conference to expose the truth about the invasion of China, and he fought bloody resistance in the Northeast battlefield; she fought for international aid for the Anti-Japanese League, and he organized guerrilla operations behind enemy lines. Even though the two places were separated, they were connected.
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the two joined hands in the reconstruction of Northeast China, witnessed the birth of New China, and raised their children to be pillars of the country. In his later years, he made a life-and-death promise in his small courtyard: "As long as Song Zhiwei lives, I, Zheng Yueshen, will live one more day." They were eventually buried together in the suburbs of Shenyang. The story is not only about the love between children, but also about the character and inheritance of the family and country in troubled times, and finally the peaceful and prosperous times, fulfilling the promise of using mountains and rivers as employment.
