I shouted until my voice was hoarse. 0
 
Why, why didn’t I use his guilt before to make him do more things? 0
 
Why, why did I only think about escaping the palace, escaping from his side? 0
 
I regret it. 0
 
But it seems like it's too late. 0
 
On my birthday, my body rapidly deteriorated. 0
 
I coughed up blood. 0
 
Yet I felt that if I could die today, my family would only have to mourn once every year on my birthday. 0
 
Just once. 0
 
That’s better than having to pay respects twice a year during Qingming and Zhongyuan. 0
 
I am filial. 0
 
I closed my eyes, waiting for death to come. 0
 
In a daze, I heard a familiar voice. 0
 
“Sang Yi, don’t leave me.” 0
 
“We live together and die together.” 0
 
Liangqiu Hongxin tightly grasped my hand, crying like a child. 0
 
He trembled as he took out a gold ring from his pocket. 0
 
He wanted to place it on my ring finger. 0
 
But no matter how he tried, the ring kept slipping off. 0
 
My body was too thin, just skin and bones, unable to bear the weight of the ring. 0
 
He cried and said, “Sang Yi, I truly love you.” 0
 
“How could I not love you?” 0
 
 
"You are so vibrant, so passionate, so in love with me." 0
 
"We were once so happy together." 0
 
"Sang Yi, don't leave me, I beg you." 0
 
I slowly opened my eyes, my vision somewhat blurred. 0
 
"You..." 0
 
Each word I spoke took immense effort. 0
 
"You... get... away..." 0
 
I had never bowed my head to anyone. 0
 
When he no longer cherished me, I did not surrender. 0
 
When he took everything from me, I did not beg for mercy. 0
 
But that time, I pleaded with him, begged him not to take my cat away. 0
 
He did not agree. 0
 
It was I who died. 0
 
"It was you..." 0
 
"It was you... who killed me." 0
 
"You... do not deserve... to say... you love me." 0
 
He shook his head desperately, tears splattering. 0
 
"No, no, Sang Yi, I didn't mean it." 0
 
"I was just, I was just too angry." 0
 
"I just wanted you to soften up." 0
 
"Sang Yi, I was wrong, I truly was wrong." 0
 
"I shouldn't have treated you that way." 0
 
 
"Sang Yi, wake up, please wake up." 0
 
"As long as you wake up, I will do anything for you." 0
 
"Sang Yi, I beg you, love me one more time." 0
 
"Sang Yi..." 0
 
My vision became increasingly blurry, to the point where I could no longer see his face. 0
 
The voice in my ears grew fainter, almost inaudible. 0
 
Only the soft meowing of a cat became clearer and clearer. 0
 
It must be here to take me away. 0
 
Only it would lead me away. 0
 
"Liangqiu Hongxin..." 0
 
I used all my strength to utter my last words. 0
 
"I... don't love... you anymore." 0
 
"I... only feel... disgusted... by you." 0
 
"I... beg... you..." 0
 
"Never... in this life... or the next... see me again..." 0
 
I closed my eyes and could no longer open them. 0
 
He shook my body frantically. 0
 
"Sang Yi, wake up, wake up!" 0
 
"Don't sleep, don't sleep!" 0
 
"I beg you, just look at me one more time, just look at me one more time!" 0
 
 
Awei burned my Sick Cat to ashes and placed it in my coffin. 0
 
 
I have completed my last wish. 0
 
My Father has come. 0
 
He came to the palace to resign from Liangqiu Hongxin. 0
 
He said he no longer wants to be the Duke of State. 0
 
He also does not want to guard the borders for Great Qi anymore. 0
 
He said he has only two children. 0
 
He said he is getting old and wants to retire and go home to enjoy his old age. 0
 
He spoke a lot. 0
 
The last sentence was, "My daughter is gone, Your Majesty, my daughter is gone!" 0
 
"Do you know how much I loved my daughter?" 0
 
"I held her in my palms for fear of dropping her, I cherished her for fear of losing her; the daughter I raised with so much effort is just gone!" 0
 
"Your Majesty, have you seen the scars on Sang Yi's arm?" 0
 
"She made those cuts herself with a hairpin!" 0
 
"She was afraid of being seen, so she cut her arm, one line after another, blood and flesh all mixed together!" 0
 
"She didn’t dare tell anyone else; she only dared to tell me." 0
 
"Your Majesty, have you seen the scars on her arm?" 0
 
"Do you know why she harmed herself?" 0
 
My Father wiped away a tear, choking back his sobs. 0
 
"She harmed herself because she no longer wanted to live!" 0
 
"She no longer wanted to live, Your Majesty!" 0
 
"She no longer wanted to live, Your Majesty!" 0
 
My Father shouted with a heart-wrenching cry. 0
 
 
"I tried my best to keep her alive, but she didn't want to live!" 0
 
"Your Majesty, do you know?" 0
 
"It's all your fault, you caused her death!" 0
 
My father left the palace with my coffin and returned to the Frontier. 0
 
My brother did not come to see me off. 0
 
Because he was feigning death on the battlefield and was on his way to the Frontier. 0
 
He couldn't let anyone know he was still alive. 0
 
The Fierce General of Great Qi was gradually fading away, and my brother had become the pillar of support. 0
 
The Border Defense had fallen. 0
 
Two years later, the imperial city was also breached. 0
 
The enemy troops searched the imperial city and found Liangqiu Hongxin. 0
 
He couldn't even escape. 0
 
He died in a hasty manner in the Consort's chamber. 0
 
At the time of his death, he tightly held a blood-stained pouch and a gold ring. 0
 
It is said that he spent a large sum of money to obtain that gold ring from a Master. 0
 
It could bring the dead back to life. 0
 
How ridiculous. 0
 
Truly ridiculous. 0
 
Is there such a thing in this world? 0
 
If there were, how could my mother and I have died? 0
 
The enemy troops confiscated his belongings. 0
 
His corpse was discarded in a mass grave and was torn apart by wild dogs. 0
 
 
My brother said that when he died, there was no one by his side. 0
 
How pitiful. 0
 
My brother said that when he died, he kept crying and murmuring my name. 0
 
He said, "Sang Yi, I love you." 0
 
He said, "Sang Yi, don't go." 0
 
He said, "Sang Yi, I beg you, love me one more time." 0
 
How ridiculous. 0
 
It's truly absurd. 0
 
My Father raised herds of cattle and sheep in a desolate place far from civilization. 0
 
Every day, they bleat in front of my grave. 0
 
My Father said this is to comfort my wandering soul. 0
 
How laughable. 0
 
It's really laughable! 0
 
I no longer care about these things. 0
 
I have already been reincarnated. 0
 
I have long forgotten the past. 0
 
I only vaguely feel that the events of my previous life are like a dream. 0
 
A dream I never want to recall again. 0
