When the Incense Fades Away

Dew drops on the steps and tears on the brows compete with each other in the waves. (Female perspective) I come from a famous family, and my father is an "undefeated prime minister" who holds the most power and even the emperor is afraid of him. You would think that I am a noble girl with unlimited fame, but in fact I am just the daughter of an unfavored concubine in his court, and I am just one of his many children. My father doesn't pay much attention to me, and he hasn't visited me a few times since I can remember. My mother doesn't like me either, because I'm not a man, so she can't let her mother be valued by her son... Whenever she doesn't get her way, she takes out her anger on me. She kneels in the ancestral hall all night, in the rain, and is punished to stand outside the door for a long time in thin clothes in winter. Maybe these are the hardships I should endure... I developed a tolerant and soft temper until I was told that I would not live long. I could no longer endure everything I had experienced, so I chose to leave this world... That night I said my final farewell to the world and jumped off the stone bridge... But someone picked me up, and I felt his body temperature, and my world warmed up like early spring. Thank you for meeting me, thank you... (Male protagonist's perspective) As the only son in the family, I was given high hopes since I was a child. I joined the army with my father when I was young, and I was very high-spirited. Now I have become a general at a young age, attracting the attention of everyone. However, I am also treated coldly by the high-ranking officials because my ancestors were born into slaves. That night I walked past the bridge at night and saw a woman falling into the water. I rescued her ashore without hesitation, and our bond began... Maybe we have been in love for a long time, and I actually want to spend the rest of my life with you hand in hand... "The day I fell into the water, you saved me, and the love in my heart has secretly grown. But I know that my life experience is far inferior to yours, and I am not going to die soon, so I hide this love silently in my heart. Until, until you say that you also belong to me... But I really can't do anything. Destiny made me meet you, but I can only I have been given less than three years to enjoy being with you, and I can't bear to tell you all this. I really can't bear to see your tears shed for me. I'm sorry, but the embers fade away in the end. If you meet the person you love again, just forget about me. I hope you are happy and don't feel sad because of my injustice..." "The time I spent with you is unforgettable. I met you when I first fell in love, and no one in the world can beat you from now on. I feel sorry for your past, and I can't let you go. I want to always protect you, and I am willing to be your general to protect you. We finally got married, and I will cherish you. In fact, I have long since I already know that you will die soon, but I am willing, only willing, to be with you and spend the remaining three years with you. Don't be sad or cry. After you leave, I will never fall in love with anyone again, nor will I marry again. I will always protect our home until I grow old. I hope you will be by my pillow in the next life..." At night, I suddenly returned to my hometown with a deep dream. I was dressing up outside the small window. They looked at each other without words, only a thousand lines of tears.
