“If Xiao Che cuts off one of his arms, this prince will withdraw the troops!” When the Northern Di envoy sneered, Lingyang shouted, “This is going too far!” But as she turned away, he clamped a hand around hers. She thought he was about to give in, never realizing he had laid a deep trap to lure the enemy in. Yet when flames blazed across the enemy camp, she still threw herself in front of that poisoned arrow. When news arrived that Lingyang had fallen from the cliff, Xiao Che, spear stained with blood, stormed the Northern Di royal court. But in the empty General's Manor, he murmured to the memorial tablet, “You said we would live and die together. Did you lie to me?”
- Male lead: Xiao Che, known as the “God of War.” Decisive and ruthless on the battlefield, he is helpless only when it comes to Lingyang. After she falls from the cliff, his personality changes completely. He pursues revenge like a madman, then spends the rest of his life guarding everything connected to her, living as her shadow.
- Female lead: Zhao Lingyang, a resourceful and courageous princess. She can command armies before a battle map and give her life for the one she loves. Her resolve and tenderness become Xiao Che's lifelong obsession.
In addition to suspicion, there is still suspicion. A general is framed and suspected by everyone!
