On New Year's Eve in 1142,
On a snowy night at Fengbo Pavilion,
Yue Fei was murdered.
That same night, a baby was born,
marked at birth with the words “Utmost Loyalty.”
Eighteen years later,
The martial world, the streets, the imperial court, the battlefield: the whole realm was in turmoil once more.
Some said he was Yue Fei's shadow,
Others said he would become the new Yue Fei,
But Yue Zheng had only this to say:
“Serving the country with utter loyalty doesn't have to mean dying for it.”
From fleeing through the martial world to commanding an army of two hundred thousand on the northern expedition,
From the Jingnan Army to reforms at the Privy Council,
He would prove one thing:
Loyalty is not blind obedience;
And heroes shouldn't be doomed to tragedy.
When the Yellow River flowed once more,
At last, the world understood:
Yue Fei's era had ended,
But his path was only just beginning.
