"What should I do? She won't die, right?"
"What should we do? The general only sent us two to guard her, but he didn't ask us to ensure that she doesn't hang herself!"
"She is the most noble woman in our Lantau, and she is the one the general keeps close to his heart. If anything happens..."
"That's all in the past! She would even go to the country and leave her home just for the sake of appearance. Is she worthy of the word honorable? Besides, she once humiliated our general like that. What does she look like now, if she doesn't bring it upon herself?"
The woman in the house who couldn't even scream could not help but burst into tears when she heard the maid outside the door talking about all the ridiculous things she had done.
She thought of the young man who once had an outstanding literary talent, but went to the battlefield because of him, even risking his life, and her heart felt like a knife.
The general in bright clothes and angry horse looked at the dying woman in front of him who was about to follow her away, and said with a tearful voice: "Do you love him like this? Love him so much that he doesn't care about his country, love him so much that he can give up everything?"
The woman said nothing, just cried.
He eventually let her go.
