**Introduction to the work "Begonia Ash"**
There was bloodshed all over the general's house, loyal people were wronged, and the orphan Shen Qingci lay dormant for three years, hiding a sharp edge.
The dying beggar she rescued turned out to be Zhao Heng, the secret guard of the East Palace - the last son laid out for her by her father.
Half a Black Bird Talisman, a piece of Begonia embroidered handkerchief, a bronze token, a chess game that has been set up for three years.
The family is wiped out in a blood feud, and every step of the way is enacted. When the fake beggar prince sheds his tatters, and when the vengeful orphan shows his sharp edge, he blocks all the swords for her, but only dares to be her "scabbard".
"The general said that a shadow cannot walk into the light."
"But I want to accompany you and stand in the light."
——This is an ancient oath about "protective inferiority".
What burns is hatred, what grows is Begonia.

**Style**: The plot is heavy on the male protagonist, the guardian of the glass heart should be careful when entering.
Intention: **Intention**
The humblest shadow, the greatest protection.
The handsome father has laid out a three-year chess game with all the loyal souls in the family, just to let his daughter understand that the end of hatred is not revenge, but that she will never wield a sword in this life, and be safe and happy.
The scorched scar on Zhao Heng's wrist was the mark of the secret guard and his oath of self-sacrifice - from the first moment, what he wanted was not the military talisman, but to be her scabbard to protect her standing in the light.
"Ember" is the ashes of burning hatred and the fire of rebirth. When the ashes fall away and the begonia blooms, the chess player and the scabbard can finally hold hands and look at the mountains and rivers together.
**One sentence core**: This is a story about "self-sacrifice and two-way redemption in the name of protection" - the deepest love is to let each other stand in the light.
