(Not a fast-paced, slap-in-the-face article)
Minghua has been married three times in her life.
I married my first love, Xie Chaoran, for the first time, and thought that the years would be peaceful from now on. But he hugged the maid and said, "It is common for a man to have three wives and four concubines." She also learned to be magnanimous. But she was proud after all, so she patted the Xie family's table and invited herself to leave.
Married for the second time to young man Chen Cheng. She warned herself not to be emotional and to just be a wife. But what the young man wanted was a pair for the rest of his life, and as a second-married woman, she couldn't afford it after all. After countless quarrels and cold wars, they finally separated.
For the third time, she had no choice but to agree to marry her relatives. Before getting married, she wanted to go to Chang'an to see her children again. On the way, she rescued a man named Pei Sinian. She originally thought that this was her final destination, but she did not expect that she would remarry Xie Chaoran under the pressure of her family.
Depression consumed her.
It wasn't until the day she walked out of the Chuihua Gate that Minghua finally saw clearly: it was never any man who had trapped her for half her life, but herself.
She taught women martial arts, led troops to regain lost territory, appointed generals as commanders, and finally resigned and traveled far away.
She no longer envies others because she has also walked out of her own way.
