Her parents cannot do anything but to sigh and accept their daughter's resolute decision. They really pity their daughter for whom they've dreaded for how many years. Sheri on the side wanted to just embrace Xue Li but can't. She was a great daughter making sure her parents see her strong side, showing that she is not in love with Du Wen but was never aware that they knew all along.

Every time a letter arrives in the residence. She was patiently waiting for just a single letter for her but alas, none was received. She pretended to not care, but they saw bits of tears on her eyes. They wanted to comfort her, but they didn't know-how. They tried persuading her in changing her heart, but she just listened and never responded. It was a bittersweet love.

The moment the south of the country obtained peace. That's the time Du Wen marched going back to the capital.

On the way. He was with the princess of the neighboring country. Everyone can see their affection toward each other.

Every single action they do. Xue Li felt pain, but she mastered not to show her emotions in her face but Sheri saw small glittering water in the corner of Xue Li's eyes.

Sheri felt pity. Sheri wanted to confront her and tell her to forget that man. For the first time, she wanted with all her might to do something. Sadly, No matter what Sheri does, all is useless.

The mother and father of Xue Li sigh when they saw it. When her brother heard that the prince wants to marry the neighboring princess they were so angry but Xue li calm them all. They shake their heads and didn't argue anymore.

While marching. The whole kingdom welcomes the prince and the princess. They celebrated the victory of their country.

When the prince arrived at the palace, he never even looked at Xue Li not once. All his focus was with the princess next to him. Indeed, the princess is beautiful, but Xue Li is also the same. Both of them have different kinds of beauty.

The next day that was the wedding day of the prince and the princess and also the time that Xue Li will enter as a concubine. It was also the announcement that the prince will be the crown prince. Everyone was flabbergasted on how fast it was. The commoner was all sympathetic toward the generals' daughter. She was considered a good girl and never provoke anyone. The only thing they criticize about her is her face. She never shows any emotions in her face. Xue li looked like wasn't bothered with all the rumor. But actually deep inside she was hurting. It felt like a dagger has been striking her heart over and over. Especially now that the whole courtyard of the prince house is decorated with red. The wedding of the crown prince and princess was the talk of the town. The crown prince gives so many gifts toward the princess while Xue Li had nothing.

The family of Xue Li shakes their head and sigh. They wanted to get angry, but they know it's useless. The only daughter and sister of them have gone to the path of loneliness. Xue li walked on the side door of the house of the crown prince. She entered as a concubine while the princess entered the main door as the consort crown princess. The whole month The crown prince never even once visited Xue Li. While Xue Li understands it all. She was hated by the Crown prince.

One time they all have to go to the mountain and pray for the health of the emperor. On the way, they encounter bandits.

When the crown prince gets out of his carriage leaving the crown princess. Xue Li joined the fight since she can also fight.

During the fight, it seems the bandits keep on appearing everywhere.

The crown prince bodyguard is getting less and less. Even though that the martial arts of the crown prince and Xue Li are high still the enemy was still many.

Xue Li is already exhausted she has some minor injuries but still, she keeps on fighting.

After a while, the crown princess was scared that she runs through the crown prince who is fighting.

The crown prince fights non-stop while protecting his beloved.

When Xue Li saw a sneak attacked toward the crown prince she runs and killed the bandit but unknowingly someone stabs her on her back.

Nevertheless, she keeps on fighting. One of her childhood maids saw that Xue Li was stab. She runs toward her miss to help. But instead, Xue li protected her.

When the bandits saw that all their comrades died they retreat.

That's the time Xue Li falls to her knees her loyal maid catches her. The crown prince came to her side. He was supposed to touch, Xue Li but the maid shouts at him. She doesn't care if she will die or be punished. She had enough looking at her miss humiliated over and over. This time is worst she even offered herself to protect the man that despised her.

"Don't touch her."The maid shout at Du Wen

Du Wen hand stop in the mid-air and kneels next to Xue Li. His hands were shaking.

"How dare you speak like that toward the crown prince," the crown princess harshly reprimands the maid, but the maid didn't care all her attention was toward Xue Li.

Xue Li looked at her maid. She was coughing blood already and having a hard time breathing.

"Give this to my father, and mother tell them....I am sorry." Xue Li said and gave her the bracelet that the Great Dowager gave and the hairpin. That is the most precious hairpin she had. She let someone made it for her. It was beautifully made and it's colored is white.

"Miss don't, Furen and master will be so sad if you go. We can still heal your injury."The maid cried while holding her.

"shh. I have done my part. Tell them ...I am sorry for being an unfilial child" Xue Li softly said. The blood keeps on tricking on the side of her mouth. She looked once more at Du Wen.

"At long last I'm free," Xue li said and a smile form on her face. She slowly closed her eyes and breathed her last breath. The maid embraced her and cried.

"Miss don't leave, Miss" Cried the maid while firmly embracing her.

A soldier was limping walked toward the maid.

"Long Wei, She is gone."Cried the maid toward the soldier.

The soldier was silently crying.

Du wen's world stood still. He doesn't know what to do. He shakily supposed to touch her.

But once again The soldier stops him

"Is it not enough she was humiliated by you and even sacrifice her life for you. You have no right to touched her. You can punish us as much as you want but this is a family matter now." Long Wei said. In spite of his injury, he carried her and walked toward the carriage. Gently laying Xue Li in the arms of her maid.

He immediately turns the carriage around and went toward the direction of the house of the general.

Du Wen couldn't believe what has happened. His heart stops when he saw that Xue Li was stabbed. he wanted to rescue her but the bandits were kept on coming. All he can see is her blood on the ground and a beautiful pouch.

He slowly picked the pouched and holds it close to his heart and cried her name.

"Xue li" Du Wen devastatingly shout. He jumps toward one of the horses and follows the carriage where Xue Li is. Leaving the princess and her maid and some of the soldiers behind.
