Facing the Palace: The Story After Yue Fei

Thirty years of fame, dust and dirt; eight thousand miles of road, clouds and moonlight.

After the age-old miscarriage of justice at Fengbo Pavilion, the perpetrators must now be pitied as the case is overturned.

Yue Xiaoe, a young woman from Yue Fei's family, dies after taking her mother and sister-in-law's place to endure 150 blows of the executioner's rod. Then a graduate student from a later era, who shares her name, arrives in her place. She experiences firsthand the Yue Army's injustice and the suffering of a world in chaos, and resolves to change fate. She and her brothers head to the Ezhou military camp. They will avenge their father and brothers, and their country.
