The heroine, Shen Zhaoning, is the eldest daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo. She is the only woman who has been worshiped as the fourth-rank general Xuanwei. She is cheerful and bold, and decisive in killing. On the battlefield, he cut off the enemy's heads without changing his expression. In the military camp, he ate and slept with the soldiers, and his laughter could shake the frost off the tent. Internally: extremely tender. When I go home, I will embroider with my mother (even though my hands are full of blood), tie a kite for my younger brother, and wipe the old piano alone under the moonlight, recalling the old memories of my youth with gentle eyebrows.

·The biggest weakness: Too much obsession with family and country, too true loyalty to the monarch
Growth Arc: From a general who believed that "loyalty to the emperor and serving the country is the only right thing to do", she finally realized that she was just a pawn that could be discarded at any time in the emperor's jealousy. But even so, she still chose to fight to the last breath for the lights of thousands of families behind her.
The male protagonist: Xiao Zong, the eldest son of the Zhongyi Hou Mansion, deputy commander of the Yulin Guard → the vanguard general of the Northern Territory. He looks cold and taciturn on the outside, but he is actually as hot as fire on the inside.
· He was silent and reserved when he was young, and will always be the shadow behind Shen Zhaoning; as an adult, he grew up to be a general in charge of his own affairs, but in front of Shen Zhaoning, he will always be the blushing boy.
