Synopsis
In 494 B.C., the state of Yue was defeated by the state of Wu, and the king of Yue, Gou Jian, was sent to the palace of Wu as a slave for three years, suffering humiliation.
After returning to his country, Gou Jian tried to regain his power by relying on his wise servants, Wen Zhong, and Fan Li.
Wen Zhong offered the "Nine Ways to Conquer Wu".
Xi Shi, an ordinary girl, left her lover Fan Li for Wu with the intention of not becoming a slave.
When the king of Wu, Fu Chai, and his ministers were wary of Gou Jian, she was often alerted to the situation and sent a message to Yue, then, Fan Li and others managed to defuse the situation.
The state of Yue had been hiding its strength and gaining the support of its people, but Wu was so pleased with its success that it was conquering without restraint.
Goujian finally seized the opportunity of Fuc Chai's trip north to Huangchi to fight for supremacy and conquered Gusu, the capital of Wu, to complete the restoration of the state.
The story is respectful of history, but it also tells the story of Xi Shi and Fan Li, who knew and loved each other and put aside their own love for their country.
