Su Yunjin had also passed through her initial panic and calmed down, saying, "No, it's too late to escape. If they can block the front door, they can block the back door too. If I run, it would be falling right into their trap!"

Su Yunjin said, "I'll go to the front yard."
"Ah, my Lady, you mustn't!"
Su Yunjin said, "Why mustn't I? At this point, we can only fight."

She, Su Yunjin, had dared to enter the city alongside Chen Jiusi and take up the position of housekeeper; she had prepared herself to die defending Chen Jie's honor.
