The Fox Fairy

Across the vast expanse of the Tiansheng Kingdom, no man has done more for his country than Gu Yun Fan (Tan Xin Zer). Hailed as a god of war, this mighty military general has successfully led the Tiansheng army into battle again and again. But when his successful rout of the Beirong invaders leaves him gravely wounded, Yun Fan has no choice but to give up his position on the front. To ensure that the bloodline of the great Gu family will continue, the emperor himself orders a marriage to be arranged for Yun Fan. Unable to deny the emperor’s wishes, Yun Fan agrees to the marriage, completely unaware of the fact that his bride-to-be has been replaced by a little fox demon. Having come to the mortal world to repay a debt, Xia Jiu Ren (Dan Ni) has taken the place of Yun Fan’s bride, in hopes that in doing so, she can repay her great benefactor. But marrying the cold general only presents them both with an entirely new set of problems. Learning to navigate through married life, Yun Fan and Jiu Ren slowly begin to understand and appreciate each other. But can their feelings of mutual respect really grow into love when one is mortal and the other is not? A delightful tale from start to finish, “The Fox Fairy” is a 2021 Chinese fantasy romance drama directed by Chen Yi.
