The tale of The King and the Beggar Girl is referred to here. Although the original legend has a happy ending in that the couple's marriage is happy, it has also denoted a person who falls in love with an inappropriate partner quickly and then marries them. The old saying, "Marry in haste, repent at leisure!" (which dates to 17th-century theatre) might apply to the Young General in this case.
