The trailer showcases three highly discussed romantic scenes that quickly went viral. In one scene, Zhang Linghe grabs Lin Yun’s hands and pins them above her head against a wall in an intense and intimate moment. Lin Yun, dressed in a light blue outfit, appears startled and shy as their faces remain very close.
Another scene shows Zhang Linghe in armor and a red cape kissing Lin Yun on a golden throne, holding her chin firmly in a dominant emotional moment.
A third highlight features Zhang Linghe carrying Lin Yun on his back through a busy night market. Lin Yun wraps her arms around his neck while looking slightly upset, while he silently comforts her as he walks forward.
Viewers quickly praised the chemistry between the two, with some even comparing it to his pairing with Tian Xiwei in Pursuit of Jade (逐玉), saying the on-screen tension here feels even stronger.
Beyond the romance, Zhang Linghe’s six costume looks also became a major highlight. His character appears in multiple battle-ready outfits, including armor and dark-toned robes in red, black, and gray, drawing praise for his upgraded visuals.
Lin Yun also stands out with elegant styling as the “number one beauty,” wearing a range of costumes from bold red robes to soft blue and pink dresses.
The Road to Glory (归鸾) is adapted from the novel by Tuanzi Laixi. The story is set after the fall of the Daliang Kingdom. Wen Yu, once a noblewoman who loses everything, becomes entangled in political power struggles. In order to seek revenge and secure military support, she sets out on a journey to find her fiancé.
Along the way, she is kidnapped by bandits and nearly sold into a brothel before being rescued by Xiao Li, a low-born street survivor. With Wen Yu’s intelligence, Xiao Li rises from a street thug to a feared general, eventually ascending the throne as emperor and bringing peace to a war-torn land.
