Synopsis and Plot Summary
The story begins when a princess meets a wolf boy. Many years later, the wolf boy has become the ruthless Bo Wang and their love is caught between complicated machinations for power and vengeance.
During the late Tang Dynasty, Liang Wang usurps the throne to proclaim himself as King and establish the late Liang. Ma Zhaixing (Li Qin) is the daughter of the master of Kui Zhou City. She encounters a wild boy (Darren Wang) born from the forest. The boy who is ignorant about worldly affairs is being chased after saving a baby wolf. He falls off a cliff and is rescued by Zhu Wen (Ding Yongdai) who takes him in as a godson and bestows him the title Bo Wang.
Ten years have passed and Bo Wang meets and rescues Zhaixing. He is moved by Zhaixing's intelligence and courage. Zhaixing also realizes that even though Bo Wang have risen from his grassroots upbringing to become a high and mighty lord, he has maintained his innate kindness and sense of justice. Through Zhaixing's influence and support, Bo Wang starts on the path to fight oppression and help the people.
