Xiao Ruo found it strange; since the matter at the palace had already spread, how could their doorstep still be so quiet?
Old Lady Yan, unaware of Xiao Ruo's thoughts, spoke with some excitement and a bit of reproach: "Xiao Ruo, your mouth is too tight. Hanwen is the 'Three-Days General' praised by the people, and you didn't tell me this."
Xiao Ruo chuckled: "Old Madam, that was years ago. My husband said chasing Feng Zhao's Army out of Qingping City was thanks to the united effort of Qingping City's soldiers, not just his achievement. How could I boast about it everywhere?"
"Xiao Ruo, stop being modest. Everyone outside is saying your husband, Hanwen, beat Feng Zhao Country's Ever-Victorious General to a pulp in front of the Emperor and officials that day at the palace," said Old Lady Yan.
Just what she feared. Xiao Ruo gave a bitter smile: "Old Lady Yan, my husband won against Feng Liangbi by luck that day; he got injured too."
