Wutong Ashes & the Startled Swan

Wutong Ashes & the Startled Swan Plot:

On the night Dajing fell, Princess Lin Jinghong fled the fire clutching half a jade pendant, hiding under a false name by running "Wutong Leaf Teahouse" on the outskirts. Three years later, General Gu Zhao of the enemy state entered the capital and stepped into the teahouse because of the copper bell under the eave—a token he'd secretly tied to the waist of a palace maid who'd saved his life at the cost of her own. A rainy night fire burned the Wutong beam to ashes, and Gu Zhao dug out half a jade pendant from the embers, which fit perfectly with the other half he carried close. At that moment, Jinghong held a knife to his back—she'd never imagined that the "benefactor" she'd sought was the enemy who'd massacred her entire family.
