He was the Empress's sharpest sword, but it was broken by her own hands.
Shen Jinghong, the only descendant of the Zhenguo General Mansion, joined the army at the age of seven, took command at the age of twelve, pacified the Western Region at the age of fifteen, and defeated 30,000 enemies with 800 cavalry at the age of sixteen - he is the God of War who has not been seen in Daqi for a century, and is also the childhood sweetheart of Prince Xiao Zhao.
He thought that she would be his destination.
But when he knelt in front of the East Palace Gate and begged for a way out for the General's Mansion, which was full of people being executed, she only replied to him with four words -
"It's inconvenient to meet you."
That night, the rain in the Imperial Capital soaked through his clothes and extinguished the last fire in his heart.
Three years later, Xiao Zhao ascended the throne as emperor and named Xiao Huaijin, the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, as his husband. And Shen Jinghong was demoted to a commoner, dragging his broken body and went north to the border alone.
The war in the north is rising again, and Beidi's hundreds of thousands of cavalry are watching eagerly. There were constant party disputes in the court, and no one dared to go to the front line. Shen Jinghong concealed his name and entered Qingshi Pass as a staff member. He reorganized the defeated army on his own, burned down the enemy camp with 500 elite soldiers, and defended the isolated city with his broken body——
He wanted the world to know that Shen Jinghong was never anyone's pawn.
He wanted Xiao Zhao to know what kind of person she had thrown away with her own hands.
And when the empress finally understood that what she had lost was far more important than the throne——
Will the boy who once wrote poems for her look back?
Female power plot × childhood sweetheart × broken mirror is difficult to reconcile × battlefield fighting
He was the general who was betrayed, and it was something she could never get back.
