My Background

My names Liu Fang. My names meaning is fragrant.

I have an older sibling. Five years older than me. His name is Liu Wei. My brother meant great. Just as his name suggests, he is a great man. He is very clever in classical literature. He is also good at martial arts.

I admired him so much. He is my hero.

My brother once expressed his wish. His desire was to enter the Royal Military Academy. Became a general. Fight for his country. Take care of national security. However, our parents are against their will. My father forced him to keep our family business. As a wise boy, he obeys the wishes of our parents. My brother made our family business bigger than ever. My parents are happy.

Nobody thinks that excitement is only temporary. Three years ago, a storm hit our family's trading vessels. The ship was drowned. Bring my brother.

After my brother died, bad things happened to our family. First, my mother got sick. Secondly, my father lost interest in maintaining our business. I know why they become like this. They have regrets because they againts my brother desire. They thought if my brother entering the military academy, he is still alive now.

Along with the loss of my father's interest in caring for our family business, our business has decreased. Little by little, we lose property. All the rest are home and a plot of land in the village. Father finally took our family to live in the village.

Two years after my brother's death, my mother followed him. Mother never recovered from her sadness. The sadness made her sick. She died in sleep. Do not say goodbye to her husband and me.

In the end my father's condition became like my mother. My father got sick. The doctor said that my father had heart disease. The sadness of my father made him like that.

I know that my father is depressed. I often see my father daydreaming. It makes me sad. Make me wonder at heart. Did my dad forget me? Her daughter.

I try to encourage my dad. I often talk to him. I hope if we have a chat, my father can forget his sadness. I tried to tell a joke to make him laugh. I failed. He does not care about all my efforts. He would rather daydream and ignore his daughter.

For a year I tried to change the situation. However, I am failed. My father still ignored me. The disappointment of ignorance over my heart. Then last night, I got good news. The Military Academy conducts the selection process again. The selection process will be held at Royal Capital. Selection will be next week.

I do not think long. I immediately decided to follow the election of the Royal Military Academy. Although the rules in the reign of the Government are only men able to follow the election. I decided to ignored the rules. I will be disguised as a man.

Last night, I quickly finished my stuff. This morning I left home. Without saying goodbye to my dad.

I left a letter to my dad. In the letter, I said that I would fulfill my brother's dream. In that letter, I also wrote that I promised to make my family proud.

I know that traveling to the Kingdom is not easy. To shorten the time, I need to drive the horse at high speed. I will pass many hills and valleys. I will also cross the river. Despite many obstacles, I will continue. I believe that the effort will not betray the results.
