On the twenty-eighth day of the fifth month, he finally arrived outside the gates of Shengjing. He swung off his horse and walked forward, wailing, "Dodo, how am I to go on living without you?"

To show respect and to win over the followers of the two White Banners, Fulin had ordered all citizens in the city to don mourning clothes.
