'Law and the City' lawyers clink spoons over meal to shake off the day's stress
The Legend of Zang Hai, led by Xiao Zhan, has been confirmed to premiere on May 18.
The C-drama tells the story of the son of the Imperial Astronomer of the Da Yong Empire, who experienced the catastrophe of his entire family's annihilation. Ten years later, he returns to the capital under the alias Zang Hai. Relying on the architecture skills and strategic expertise he honed over the years, he outwits treacherous villains, uncovers conspiracies, and joins forces with beloved friends to protect the nation.
He is Zhinu, the son of Kuai Duo, the Imperial Astronomer of the Directorate of Astronomy of the Da Yong Empire. Within a matter of just a single night, he was burdened with a blood feud. After ten years of forbearance and study, Zhinu returns to the capital under the alias Zang Hai. Relying on his mastery of architecture and strategy, he rises through the ranks of the court.
He reveals the truth behind his family's massacre to the public, and as he gradually grows, he comes to see the deep-rooted corruption within the imperial court. In the end, for the sake of national stability and the well-being of the people, Zang Hai helps the Da Yong Empire put an end to the war.
Xiao Zhan plays Zang Hai. After experiencing the agony of witnessing his family's annihilation in childhood, Zang Hai studied geomancy and strategy under his masters. Upon reaching adulthood, he became a man of exceptional cunning, wholly devoted to uncovering the truth behind that tragic night. Avenging his family was his first — and only — goal.
On the outside, he appears calm and composed, skilled in the techniques of strategy and maneuvering, and in navigating the maze of human hearts. Yet deep down, he never abandoned his pursuit of justice and truth, nor did he ever let go of kindness.
Zhang Jing Yi plays Xiang An Tu, a clever, intelligent, and wise girl of exceptional skills. More mature than girls her age, like Zang Hai, she, too, carries a heavy story.
Zhou Qi plays Zhuang Zhi Xing, Huang Jue plays Zhuang Lu Yin, Yu Nan plays Xiang Yu Su Ti, and Michelle Chen plays Zhao Shang Xian.
The Legend of Zang Hai premieres on May 18, on YOUKU.
