Chapter 12
Lady Guo instantly turned from sorrow to joy, and her heart was prepared for anything!
After all, as long as she could save Guo Jing's life and protect the Guo family, what in this world could be more important than that?
Even if the sacrifice was great, it would be worth it!
As for Xiangyang City, that was merely a responsibility imposed upon her by the world.
If she had the ability, she would naturally fight to the end,
But if she lacked the ability, then she would defend it if she could, and if she couldn't, there was nothing to be done.
After all, she was a woman; in a moment of crisis, Lady Guo did not have such a grand perspective.
"I beg Mr. Su to show me the way!"
Su Hang nodded and said with a faint smile:
"It is not difficult."
"I ask Lady Guo to remarry!"
"As long as you remarry, Guo Jing will not have to die, and the Great Song may not necessarily fall..."
"Everything still has a turning point."

"What! Ask Lady Guo to remarry!"
"This..."
At this point, before Su Hang could continue,
A thunderous exclamation erupted in the Banyue Inn!
The martial arts people watching had never expected Su Hang to say such a thing!
Who is Lady Guo?
She is the benchmark for women and the model for the Great Song!
Even in the entire comprehensive martial arts world, Lady Guo is a world-renowned heroine of her generation!
Not only is she beautiful, enough to be ranked in the top ten in the world!
But she is also righteous; even as a woman, she took over the Beggar Sect and managed this world's number one sect in an orderly fashion!
Whether it is the Great Song Dynasty or any other dynasty, even the residents of the distant Snow Moon City know Lady Guo's reputation.
But at this moment, Su Hang wants Lady Guo to remarry?
"No way! To ask Lady Guo to remarry, this is too crazy!"
"Did I hear that right? Mr. Su actually wants Lady Guo to remarry? What about Hero Guo? He isn't dead yet!!! Besides, even if Lady Guo were willing to remarry, who would she marry?"
"Unthinkable, simply unthinkable! Although Lady Guo is a woman, she is still Lady Guo; how can she easily remarry?"
"I didn't expect Mr. Su to be so crazy! To make the person in this world least likely to remarry, remarry?"
"Ahem! Since ancient times, women have followed the three obediences and four virtues. Her husband isn't dead yet, how can she remarry? This is not upholding female virtue!"
"Brothers, don't be in such a hurry to deny it; at least listen to Mr. Su's reasons!"
Amidst the discussion and noise of the crowd,
Lady Guo's face flushed red again.
Her fair fists were clenched tightly; she wanted to be angry, but she didn't dare.
The tear stains were still on her face, not yet dry, but thinking of what Su Hang had just said, she wished she could find a hole to crawl into!
Remarry!
This might be possible for others,
But for Lady Guo, for Huang Rong, this was simply unthinkable! Impractical!
Who in the world doesn't know that her life with Huang Rong has been fulfilling?
Now, at less than forty years old, she has both sons and daughters, a loving husband, and is the leader of the Beggar Sect?
If she were to remarry under these circumstances, she would inevitably be reviled, spurned by the world, and her lifelong reputation would be destroyed in an instant!
Thinking of this, Lady Guo snorted softly and said:
"Mr. Su!"
"The world knows that my life as Huang Rong has been fulfilling. Everything I have today is thanks to my husband; how could I remarry?"
"If you say this, sir, you are not taking me, Huang Rong, seriously at all!"
"If you don't explain yourself clearly today, I, Huang Rong, will not let this go!"
In her anger, Lady Guo didn't care about etiquette anymore,
She immediately referred to herself as Huang Rong and brought out her usual unyielding temper!
At this moment, in Lady Guo's eyes,
Su Hang was no different from a roadside con artist.
Seeing that everyone looked confused and Lady Guo was flushed with anger, Su Hang didn't pay much attention.
He just said nonchalantly:
"Then... are you willing to watch your husband die in battle in Xiangyang City?"
"You have been loving for many years, and your bond is stronger than gold."
"Lady Guo, you wouldn't want anything to happen to Guo Jing, would you?"
After Su Hang's words, Lady Guo instantly calmed down.
Although the suggestion of this fortune teller was very absurd, what other way was there?
Could she really gather everyone to defend Xiangyang to the death and fight the Mongol army to the end!
The key is, even if they did, could they win?
Even if they won, would the death of her entire family be what she wanted?
Thinking of Guo Jing, thinking of the past, thinking of the people in Xiangyang City.
At this moment, Lady Guo felt miserable!
So she wiped away her tears and said to Su Hang:
"Master, I was anxious just now and was offensive; please don't take offense."
"As long as my husband can survive, as long as the people of Xiangyang can be protected!"
"I! Am willing to remarry!!"
Saying this, Lady Guo began to cry.
A flurry of tears fell like rain.
Her whole body almost went limp.
The martial arts people watching were also filled with pity.
Lu Xie Xiaofeng shook his head and couldn't help but sigh: "They say there is nothing more heartless in the world than breaking up a couple, but Mr. Su is quite something; he's directly breaking up Lady Guo!"
Seeing this, Su Hang just stepped forward and gently helped Lady Guo up.
Then he smiled calmly and explained:
"Since ancient times, man proposes, God disposes; even in a dead end, there is a way to survive."
"But the Mongol southward invasion, conquering cities and lands, aiming for Xiangyang, is a case of man proposing, but the failure is in the hands of man."
"This situation seems like a path to life, but it is full of dead ends everywhere."
"The only plan now is for you to remarry, Lady, to leave a glimmer of life in this dead end."
Lady Guo wiped her tears, nodded, and whispered in agreement:
"I understand..."
"I ask Mr. Su to show me a clear path."
Su Hang nodded and continued:
"Just think, if you remarry, Hero Guo will certainly be reluctant to part with you,"
"Wherever you go, Hero Guo will surely follow."
"In this way, Hero Guo can calmly avoid the dangerous place of Xiangyang."
"Although this move violates good customs, it is the best way to preserve Hero Guo's life."
"Otherwise, I believe you know in your heart,"
"If Xiangyang is in danger, even in a small skirmish, given Hero Guo's character, he will inevitably be the first to charge into battle."
