Nan Luo was stunned.
From all the possibilities that he thought of, this was the only one he didn't dare to think. Mainly because he was sure that Great General Wei would never agree to this.
Whose father want their daughter to put their lives on the line?
"Mu Qing, you know that Great General Wei..."
"After I'm married, he couldn't control my life forever." Wei Mu Qing pursed her lips. She tilted her head and then said, "Besides, I don't really want to stay behind and wait for you to come back. Waiting can be very tiring."
Waiting is tiring.
Not being able to know anything about the person she cared for.
Everyday was spent worrying for the person who were far away and fighting with their lives on the line.
Would they be fine?
Would they survive?
When would they return?
Every single day, there would be questions in Wei Mu Qing's head, whether she wanted it or not, thinking about her family members. She didn't know how her mother used to be able to cope up with Great General Wei's arrangement for him to stay on the frontline all the time while she waited at home.
But...
Wei Mu Qing could still remember her mother's sadness and loneliness.
Because she was not a martial arts nor someone who could protect herself, Great General Wei didn't allow her to follow him.
The path of a general is a path carved with blood.
Blood from the enemies and their own.
Many people put their lives on the line for the sake of victory and many others.
Great General Wei knew very well that if his wife were to follow him, she might be used by others who saw her as his weakness. And Great General Wei himself didn't dare to put the person he loved in danger.
He couldn't bear to.
In the past few years, Wei Mu Qing was the only one who stayed in Wei Family Residence. Her mother had passed away a few years ago and there were only her maidservants accompanying her and talking with her. freewebnovel.cσ๓
They would entertain her.
She also has her teachers.
But she couldn't help missing her family members who were out there, fighting for Fei Yang Kingdom. They put their lives on the line and Wei Mu Qing knew very well that it was not easy for them to go back unscathed.
So she always prayed.
Prayed for their safe return.
When the news from the frontline came that her sister had passed away, Wei Mu Qing's first reaction was disbelief. After that, all she felt was sadness and emptiness. Because she knew very well that her older sister would never come back.
Wei Mu Qing hadn't thought much about what to do in the future.
So when Nan Luo asked this, she thought that it might be possible for her to follow him instead.
