On the second day after signing the peace treaty, Su Rong left Zhang Yun, Zhang Mao, Ning Ze, Cui Xingzhi, Jiang Zhu, and all the generals to handle the follow-up matters in the takeover of Dawei City. Su Rong, Zhou Gu, Ye Guixue, Xie Yuan, and others, taking only a small number of troops and guards, returned to the Nanchu Capital.
Everyone was eager to avoid delay on the journey and so they traveled day and night.
Taking advantage of a lull, Cui Yanjin reluctantly asked Su Rong when Zhou Gu was not around, "Sister-in-law, will you take multiple husbands and lovers in the future?"
Su Rong looked at him, "Do you think I don't treat your cousin well enough? Or because I don't seem to be devoted that you came to ask me this question?"
Cui Yanjin shook his head, "No, no, of course you treat my cousin well, it's just that he has such a bad temper, I'm afraid that you'll become impatient with him over time."
