Synopsis and Plot Summary

During the Song Dynasty, a woman disguises herself as a man and becomes a formidable general, unrivaled in military prowess and fearless in battle. She's been given an important post since the age of sixteen and even the people closest to her believe that she is a man (which ought to make for a couple confused hearts). After winning a glorious battle, the King has planned to bestow her with the title of the great general, but she takes the opportunity to reveal that she's a woman. After outing herself, she is forced to marry into the imperial family yet the man she is betrothed to is everything that she is not - spoiled-rotted, entitled and definitely not hero material.
