However, the unexpected events of the Battle of Fangla caused Wu Song to lose his arm, which had a profound impact on the trajectory of his life. Song Jiang and Wu Yong's remarks caused him to shake violently in his heart. Song Jiang's words seemed to touch the deepest part of his heart, prompting him to deeply reflect on himself. Therefore, he decided to leave and take care of the injured Lin Chong wholeheartedly, which not only contains sincere care for Lin Chong, but also reflects a response to the cry from the depths of his heart.
After leaving Liangshan, Wu Song became acquainted with Chai Jin, which brought new hope and support to his life. Under the protection of Chai Jin, his life is stable, but he still feels empty in his heart. After reuniting with Song Jiang, Wu Song found his spiritual belonging and found the true meaning he had been pursuing for a long time.
Wu Song's admiration for Song Jiang Through the observation of virtue and behavior, Wu Song's respect and trust for Song Jiang are self-evident. Song Jiang's wisdom and broad-mindedness made Wu Song deeply admired, regarded him as a confidant and good friend, and respected him as a teacher.

In view of this, he resolutely chose to stay in the imperial court and serve in an important position to protect the safety of his brother-in-law.
The disagreement between Wu Song and Song Jiang But as time passed, the relationship between Song Jiang and Wu Song became strained. After accepting Zhao'an, Song Jiang's ambitions were released, which made Wu Song feel deeply lost. At the same time, Song Jiang gradually lost his trust in his brother, who had been in the same boat, because his opposition to the recruitment of security caused his doubts.

Brothers who once shared weal and sorrow embarked on very different paths for their respective fates. Although the emotional journey between Wu Song and Song Jiang was not perfect, it has become a legend that has been praised for thousands of years.
