In the third year of Yongning, the regent Xiao Lin massacred the imperial city and imprisoned the prince Shen Zhao in a deep palace. What he wants is not surrender, but crushing. Let the eyes that once looked down upon the world shed tears, make the body sitting upright on the dragon chair tremble, and let the young man who once called him "Xiao Qing" admit in person that he had never hated him. Shen Zhao didn't. He drank poisonous wine with a smile, and was meek and Chenghuan, but when he was at his most intoxicated, he chanted his late mother's name, turning himself into an empty shell, letting Xiao Lin's rage and tenderness fall into the abyss.
But Xiao Lin didn't know that what Shen Zhao, who was seventeen years old and hiding in the crowd on Yuan Ye, was watching was the young general on horseback wearing a black armor and a silver spear. Shen Zhao also didn't know that Xiao Lin kept the peace charm that was secretly stuffed into his armor before the Northern Expedition and kept it on his heart for ten years, with the words "See you often every year" embroidered on it. The most painful coercion is when two people are in love, but both think that the other only wants to destroy.
When his aunt Rong Wanqing's conspiracy comes to light, when his brother Shen Yuan's poison breaks out, and when Helian's iron-bone cavalry approaches the city, Shen Zhao returns his father's bones by removing his bones, coughs up blood and loses his voice, Xiao Lin abandons his martial arts and takes his heart blood to refine medicine. They use injuries to prove their existence, use self-destruction to test their sincerity, and end up burning together in a sea of fire.
