When she was seventeen years old, she sent him on an expedition in the windy and sandy Moyunguan City. She didn't shed any tears or say a word. She just looked at him from a distance. He was a brave general in silver armor, high-spirited and arrogant to all living beings.
He said he would marry her until the day he returns in triumph. He gave her the Dragon Jade Pendant of the Legendary Regiment as a betrothal gift, and he asked her to wait patiently for him to come back.
So, without tears or sadness, she sent him off in a bright red peony dress. The howling wind in the desert made her hair and red dress fly together. From a distance, she looked like the nine-day fairy, a stunning beauty in the world who could captivate a country, or more like a beautiful bride in auspicious clothes.
He looked at her one last time, his eyes were deep and unreachable, his lips moved slightly as if to say wait for me, then he gave a loud shout and flew away. The war drums were beating, the soldiers were high-spirited, and the people were shouting.
That day, she stood on the tower of Moyunguan City for a long time, until the moon rose, and until dawn came again. She kept looking at the vast desert, and her eyes did not shift for a long time. That day was the last time she saw him, her brother Sheng, the man who said he wanted to marry her.
She thought her heart was dead, but she met him, and everything seemed to have just begun.
