Hearing Yao Zhi's words, another guard whispered in a low voice, "That's because Madam already had someone she loved before she married the General."
"The General was jealous but didn't dare to force Madam to forget that person. That's why he buried himself in his official duties and rarely came home."
Hearing this, Yao Zhi was doubtful. "If the General really cares about Madam, he should show it to her. The more he ignores her, the more distant their relationship will become."
"We all understand this principle. But who is the General? He is the highest Commander in the army, commanding more than 250,000 soldiers."
"So, you are saying that the General cared about his reputation and was unable to lower himself to pursue his wife?" Yao Zhi shook her head.
The guards nodded seriously. In this era, most men still thought that it was normal for their wives to vie for their favor. But for a man to vie for his wife's favor was a shameful thing.
