Lin Qingfeng said, "I don't know about that. But they said that not only do they obey the Goddess, but the Southern Chu army does too. The Goddess holds an extremely high position in Southern Chu."
Su Wan thought about it carefully.
Chu Mingyao once said that once a woman from a family of divine healers experiences "soul transference," she must marry into the Southern Chu royal family, a rule followed by emperors throughout history. Only her mother broke this rule and escaped from Southern Chu.
Chu Yi came to the Great Jin Dynasty to find the goddess and bring her back. As the next emperor of Southern Chu, Chu Yi would inevitably marry Bai Zhiyi.
Bai Zhiyi was the Empress of Southern Chu.
Since the Southern Chu army, whether warriors or soldiers, already regarded Bai Zhiyi as their empress, they would naturally obey her orders.
The problem is, Bai Zhiyi is clearly fake; she is the real goddess.
She suddenly thought of a way to save everyone.
She is the real goddess; Bai Zhiyi is an imposter. Chu Mingyao once told her that the goddess and the jade pendant cannot be separated. For Bai Zhiyi to impersonate the goddess, she must have a fake jade pendant to gain Chu Yi's trust.
The jade pendant was safely placed on the bedside table in the apartment. As long as he showed the pendant to Chu Yi on the city wall, the truth would come out.
She could, in her capacity as a goddess, command the Southern Chu army to cease its attack, spare Wei Jingzhuo, spare Su Yuze, spare Meng Ruliu… and save all those she cherished.
If the goddess truly held such a high position, Chu Yi would definitely listen to her.

"Don't panic," a voice asked, "which side is attacking?"
"It's the Southern Chu army. They sneaked in under cover of night, trying to climb the city wall. Your Highness is already fighting the enemy."
Who is the enemy's general leading the attack on the city?
"Chu Yi, he personally went into battle."
