Chapter 19 — Lady Tu Muu Thien Ha

Tieu Canh Hanh stood quietly on the other side of the street, not entering. He saw Tham Tri Y surrounded by a crowd and suddenly realized that what she had given him was not dependence and clinging, but side by side. It was he who personally pushed that person next to him to a horizon that he could never reach again. He bowed once, then turned and left. Tham Tri Y saw, and only saw. One year later, the old house of Ninh Vien Hau's palace was converted into a border orphanage. After Mr. Wen recovered, he stayed there to teach the children to read. Every month, Mr. On Nhuoc Duong's mother went to prison to visit her daughter, and when she returned, she stayed in the hospital to sew cold clothes for the children. While in prison, On Nhuoc Duong heard that Thanh Loan Quan had accepted the first group of female disciples, he hugged his pillow and sat all night. When morning came, he begged the prison to give her a pen. She wrote down a letter confessing her guilt, the first sentence was: Stolen light cannot illuminate a lifetime. When the confession letter was brought to Thanh Loan Quan, Tham Tri Y was drawing a border mountain on the podium. Ngan Hanh asked, "Miss, do you want to see it?" Tham Tri Y put down her pen and said, "Put it in the case file. Let future generations know that wrong is wrong, and it won't turn into injustice because of crying and pity." The female students under the podium responded in unison.
