"Love and hate intertwined" "Lovers turned enemies" "Double rebirth"
The Grand Princess of Suchao, whose fate is bound to her country
VS
The young general of the Fu family, ready to risk his life for his clan but willing to play the wastrel
Fu Changqing:
His family is powerful and he wields great authority. To avoid arousing the emperor's suspicions, he willingly plays the part of a dissolute wastrel with no power or influence.
Yet he falls in love with the Grand Princess of Suchao, who lives for her country and its people.
From then on, he can no longer bear to be good for nothing, unworthy of even the hem of her robe.
He volunteers for the battlefield to defend his home and country, hoping to earn her hand through military achievements.
He walks the line between life and death, winning illustrious honors.
But when he finally achieves fame and success, what awaits him is not a grand wedding procession.
One imperial decree wipes out a family that had stood for a hundred years.
He claws his way back from hell, revolts and storms the palace, determined to avenge himself.
Xie Zhaoyang:
If you've been wronged, I can clear your name.
But raising an army in rebellion, starting a civil war, harming my people, destroying my home, and killing: all punishable by death.
A couple who are (almost) pure hatred:
The sun and moon are exalted and radiant; husband and wife, though closest, can be the most distant.
With a sea of blood and mountains of corpses between us, with our countries' enmity and our families' hatred between us, with this life and our past lives between us, I cannot love you.
