### Summary
The emotional conflict escalates dramatically as Richt's misguided attempt to protect Peony by pushing her away is met with a direct and forceful confrontation. Rather than passively accepting his decision, Peony unleashes her frustration, culminating in a cathartic and widely praised scene where she throws both of her slippers at him. This act punctuates her verbal assault, in which she articulates her hurt and demands he stop making unilateral decisions about their relationship. She argues for a partnership where they face adversity together, expressing that his willingness to give her up makes her feel abandoned and unloved, regardless of his protective intentions. Richt is depicted in a state of silent, visible anguish, his pained eyes suggesting a deep internal conflict he is unable to voice, which only fuels the tension. This chapter has polarized the readership; while the vast majority of commenters champion Peony for being refreshingly spunky, brave, and communicative, a vocal minority criticizes her as childish and pushy, sparking significant debate. The confrontation leaves the couple at a raw emotional impasse, with many readers reiterating their desire for the pair to escape the hostile empire and find refuge in Peony's kingdom, Garten.
