The original costume drama starring Zhang Tian'ai, whose title is the same as the novel! The prequel to The Promotion Record of a Crown Princess! After the Duke of Jingguo of Nanxia is murdered, his daughter Mai Sui undergoes a sudden upheaval. Hiding her identity and taking the name A Mai, she removes her rouge and dons battle robes. She enters the military camp, encounters a flamboyant general, and crosses paths with generals who have made their names on the battlefield, growing from an ordinary soldier into a legendary “God of War.” For the people, she casts aside all sentiment; for her country, she abandons love. A Mai knows that everything she has done is not merely to find the elder brother who was with her day and night for eight years and ask him one question: “Why?” In court, he is the ruler and she is the subject. He looks down from above, while she raises her chin. He possesses the might of thunder, while she has an unyielding pride. Who says a woman must rely on her delicate body to seek a peaceful life? After life and death, with the realm spread out like a painting, all she wants is to find an old acquaintance and admire the spring scenery together.
