Chapter 168
"She sighed many times that she was not a man. If she were, she would have made great contributions on the battlefield. Unfortunately... she got married two years ago, and somehow she died of illness at an early age."
That’s it.
The lady in blue's eyes deepened, and she lowered her eyes to hide the emotions in them.
At that time, the black bear was right in front of her, with its bloody mouth wide open. She will never forget that moment...
What she could not forget even more was that after receiving the emperor's praise, her elder sister mustered up the courage to propose the absurd statement that she wanted to become a royal guard 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.
They even arranged her marriage early and let her get married.
How great it would be 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, "After hearing the gossip in the capital, I thought you were a country bumpkin who only knew how to curry favor with rich and powerful men."
"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 that. 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 a lot of things she had never seen before, and also heard a lot of 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 Miss Blue's best friend 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.
It's not a big deal. I just thought about how great it would be if my best friend's elder sister were still alive and could join the army or become a government official.
That's it.
Looking at these female soldiers now, they are actually not inferior to the guards in the mansion, right?
Miss Orange looked up at Shen Wei and continued, "How can a sparrow understand the ambition of a swan? We are too short-sighted."
"It wasn't until we watched this play today that we realized you are not an ordinary woman!"
"Please forgive us for what we said before."
Shen Wei smiled brightly and said to everyone with sparkling eyes: "Prejudice is a huge mountain. You can take the initiative to put aside these prejudices and look at things correctly, which means I am worthy."
"I have some personal words to say. Although they may seem ridiculous in this dynasty, it is still comforting to listen to them. What if I have a chance to take a chance in the future?"
"Born as women, our destiny should not belong to anyone, whether it is 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 for anyone else. Be brave to pursue, walk, and seize. Don’t give hope and happiness to anyone else.”
Although Shen 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 hearts surge.
