Shen Zhao, the Zhenguo female general, fought for Emperor Xiao Heng for ten years but contracted an incurable disease while suppressing the Northwest rebellion. Knowing Xiao Heng needed to marry a Western Regions princess for political stability, she hid her illness and fought to the death. On her deathbed, she ordered her men to disguise her remains as the princess and send them to the palace. Xiao Heng treated the 'princess' as a political chip until he saw the half jade pendant in her dowry—the token of love he gave Shen Zhao years ago. He then realized that the person beside him was the love of his life. It turned out Shen Zhao never cared about military glory; every battle was to stay with him one more day. Her 'death news' was a lie to spare him grief; her 'marriage' was her final wish—to stay by his side as his wife. Xiao Heng wept over the cold coffin, remembering his past neglect.
