General and I (2017)

Raised more like a lady than a servant inside the regal residence of Yan's princess, Bai Pingting (Angela Baby), is no ordinary maid. Nurtured alongside the princess's son, Hexia, the two establish a deep bond, with her intellect and prodigious zither skills often tipping the scales in Hexia's favor during his tumultuous wars against the formidable Jin army. These battles are led by the formidable god of war, Chu Beijie (Wallace Chung), who, despite his might, finds himself repeatedly confounded by Bai Pingting's ingenuity. Their paths cross when a wounded and unconscious Bai Pingting is discovered by Chu Beijie, her possession of his mother's old hair-pin stirring long-forgotten childhood memories and reigniting an oath made in youth. Intrigued and smitten, Chu Beijie's pursuit of Bai Pingting, however, is fraught with complications. Not only are they enemies on the battlefield, but Hexia, her long-time friend, also harbors feelings for her. Despite Bai Pingting's initial refusals and her attempts to dissuade him through cunning, Chu Beijie's unwavering sincerity and his relentless efforts to win her over begin to melt her resolve. As she finds herself falling for him, she makes the difficult choice to align with this god of war, even if it means alienating Hexia. Meanwhile, Hexia, feeling betrayed and driven by vengeance, marries the princess of Bailan to consolidate power, his ambition and hatred for Chu Beijie consuming him. In this epic saga of love and war, Bai Pingting's brilliance as a war strategist shines, her tactical decisions crucial in navigating the perilous tensions between herself, Chu Beijie, and Hexia. Throughout the tumult, her choices will determine not only her own fate but also the destiny of the kingdoms embroiled in this intricate game of power and passion.
