Prince Yan of the Great Song

In the eleventh year of the Shaoxing era, the Southern Song court forced Yue Fei to take his own life and stripped generals such as Zhang Jun and Han Shizhong of their military power. The Song and Jin dynasties made peace, throwing away the last chance for the Great Song to reclaim its northern territories. Before long, the dynasty could only cling to life as it slowly stumbled toward its end.

At this time, Yang Congyi, unaware that he had been sent to the Song dynasty on a special mission, comes across an injustice and steps in to help, only to be framed and thrown into a death-row prison. Facing dangers unknown, watch as he takes one step at a time, rising from prisoner to official. He matches wits and wills with Zhao Gou, Qin Hui, and the rest of the Southern Song court, aided by Lu You, Xin Qiji, and others. In the end, he takes command of the empire's armies, draws his sword for a northern campaign, and turns the fate of the Southern Song around! He unites the fertile lands of the East and wins lasting glory!
