Chapter 168 Man



"She lamented many times that she wasn't a man. If she were, she would have made great contributions on the battlefield. Unfortunately... she got married two years ago and died young due to illness."

That’s all I have to say.

The lady in blue's eyes deepened, and she lowered her eyes to hide the emotions in them.

At that moment, the black bear was right in front of her, its bloody mouth wide open. She would never forget that moment...

What I can't forget even more is that after receiving the emperor's praise, my elder sister mustered up the courage and made the ridiculous statement that she wanted to become a Jinyiwei and safeguard the safety of the imperial palace, which was met with disdain and ridicule from everyone present.

The mother was furious. After returning home, not only did she not praise her elder sister, but she scolded her for being embarrassing and punished her severely.

From then on, my elder sister was not allowed to touch a bow or crossbow again.

He even arranged her marriage early and let her get married.

It would be great if my elder sister was in the place described by Miss Shen. Maybe she could also become a female general?

The lady in blue laughed, hiding her bitterness, and continued, "Before, after hearing all the gossip in the capital, I thought you were a country woman who only knew how to curry favor with the rich and powerful."

"Now that I think about it, I was wrong."

"Your character was determined by those words."

"You can abandon your wealth and glory and take these people to practice martial arts to support yourself. I can't do it. I shouldn't laugh at you."

The lady in orange next to the lady in blue pursed her lips. In today's scene, she saw many things she had never seen before, and heard many absurd and unacceptable words.

Compared to glory, I want respect more.

Compared to wealth, I want happiness and freedom more...

What a ridiculous statement.

But she didn't mind.

There was even a faint excitement in my heart.

She was a close friend of the lady in blue, and had witnessed with her own eyes how the ambitious elder sister fell from a high platform and died after the incident at the shooting range.

Look at these female soldiers acting in these roles.

It's not a big deal. I just thought about how great her best friend's elder sister would be if she were still alive and could join the army or become an official.

That's all.

Looking at these female soldiers now, they are actually not inferior to the guards in the mansion, right?

The lady in orange raised her eyes, looked at Chen Wei and continued, "How can a sparrow understand the ambition of a swan? It is we who are too short-sighted."

"It wasn't until we watched this play today that we realized you are no ordinary woman!"

"Please forgive us for what we said before."

Chen Wei smiled brightly, his eyes sparkling as he said to everyone, "Prejudice is a huge mountain. The fact that you can take the initiative to put aside these prejudices and look at things correctly proves that I am worthy."

"I have some personal words I want to say. Although they may seem ridiculous in this era, it's still comforting to hear them. What if I get the chance to gamble in the future?"

"Born as women, our destiny shouldn't belong to anyone else, whether it's our original family, our parents, our future husband, or our children. We only belong to ourselves."

“If one day in the future, there is an opportunity that belongs only to you, please don’t give up on it for anyone else. Be brave to pursue it, to walk, to seize it, and don’t give your hope and happiness to anyone else.”

Although Chen Wei's words were not very loud, they were deafening to everyone present.

The whole yard fell silent, even the wind seemed to have ceased to exist.

These words were like a stone thrown lightly into the water, but they inadvertently caused a whirlpool, making everyone's heart surge.
