Sacrifice

"Sacrifice" is based on the Yuan Dynasty play `Orphan Of Zhao`. For generations, the Zhao family has wielded power, even extending over the king. In a well-planned coup, their mortal enemy, a nefarious minister called Tu An Gu (Wang Xue Qi) slaughters the entire clan, determined to wipe out their influence forever. However, a solitary Zhao baby survives and is hidden and taken home by Cheng Ying (Ge You), the doctor who delivered him, to live with his wife (Hai Qing) and their own newborn. Set on revenge, and raising the Zhao child as his own, Cheng Ying bides his time, enrolling himself and the Zhao orphan (whom he calls Cheng Bo) into the service of the Tu An Gu household. Tu An Gu grows very fond of Cheng Bo and makes him his godson, unaware that Cheng Ying has been plotting to use the boy as an instrument of vengeance when he comes of age. However, as the day draws closer, the boy`s true identity is discovered.
