303. Persuading Mr. Xiuting
"General Long Yang doused himself in alcohol and set himself on fire."
Upon hearing the soldier's report, Ye Li was stunned for a good while. Only when Mo Xiuyao gently touched her did she come around.
"Ah-Li…" Mo Xiuyao lowered his head and quietly looked at his serene wife in his arms, slightly furrowing his brows. Ye Li shook her head lightly, sighing softly. After Zhu Yan's death, another old general had taken his own life before her. Whether from a rational or emotional perspective, she could understand their choices. If she were in their place, she wouldn't surrender to the enemy either. These two senior generals had dedicated their lives to Xiling, preserving their honour in death. Both enemies and friends could only admire their spirit. However, Ye Li had a subtle feeling that she was growing a bit overwhelmed. Perhaps she had witnessed too many deaths these days?
