General Huo Qubing portrayed in C-drama Sound of the Desert--

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huo_Qubing

In reality he died in battle at age 23 but writer Tong Hua extended his life.

He was male lover or favorite of the Wu Emperor but Tong Hua made him heterosexual--she also added a wolf girl.

I recommend this TV series highly--and still remember it. Usually they are so formulaic I don't remember a thing.

4.5 out of 5 stars.
