"But this same person has now become a coward who tries to escape at the drop of a hat. Don't you think this is divine retribution? Perhaps divine retribution has already descended upon him, but you and I are just unaware of it!"
When Cen Ying talked about the past, the suffering Jiang Chengli endured came back to mind, and her eyes immediately reddened.
In the years since she married into the Marquis of Zhongyi's family, she has witnessed too many of her loved ones suffer grievous injuries. After all, they earned their military merits on the battlefield. Whether it was her husband or her son, she had seen them carried back to the mansion covered in blood, looking like corpses.
