Shen Li opened her eyes abruptly and coughed violently. There was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead. It was as if she had just woken up from a dream.

After her breathing calmed down, Shen Li looked around in confusion. Then, she subconsciously glanced at herself. Her expression froze.

What’s with this glaringly red wedding dress, Phoenix Coronet, and ceremonial robe?

Shen Li lifted the curtain of the palanquin and saw that the people outside were all dressed in ancient costumes. A group of people were beating drums and playing music.

Not far away, a man who was also in wedding attire rode on a tall horse.

Just as Shen Li tried to take a closer look, her head suddenly hurt. She raised her hand and pressed it against her forehead. Memories that did not belong to her rushed into her brain like a tide.

After a long moment, Shen Li finally accepted the information in her mind. This was the Great Zou Kingdom, and she was the daughter of the former Imperial Censor of the east. Today, she was getting married to the eldest son of the Jin family. They had been engaged since childhood.

Although her thoughts were still scrambled, the shock struck Shen Li like a sledgehammer.

Had she transmigrated?

As a young lady of the 21st century, she was a dedicated actress in the entertainment industry. While others brought eight stuntmen to perform a scene, she dove headlong into the water herself during a winter shoot.

However, she seemed to have drowned.

Otherwise, why would she be in this situation?

Just as Shen Li was lost in thought, the palanquin shook violently. With a bang, it was abruptly set down.

She stole another look outside. A group of men in dark clothes were holding large knives in their hands and snatching anything they could get their hands on. The guards were fleeing in all directions.

Shen Li clenched his fists and thought, ‘Is this one of those cliché bandit scenes?’

As she lamented her bad luck, she prepared to escape.

Shen Li’s first thought was to look at her ‘husband’.

Fifteen minutes ago, that person had sworn to the heavens that he would treat her well.

Shen Li only had time to glimpse the groom’s rapidly vanishing back.

Shen Li was speechless. So much for heavenly vows.

The bandits were getting close. A burly man noticed the palanquin Shen Li was in and rushed to it.

When he saw Shen Li’s face, the man’s mouth curved into a terrifying smile, and his drool threatened to moisten the soil beneath.

He looked at Shen Li’s chest with a perverted gaze and said eagerly, “Lady, tonight you’ll consummate your marriage with me. I guarantee that I’ll make you feel comfortable.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Li stood up without any hesitation. She raised the Phoenix Coronet off her head and kicked the man between his legs.

“Go to hell.”

The man’s pained wails and Shen Li’s curses were heard at the same time.

Shen Li lifted the hem of her dress and sprinted like it was the 21st century.

The man chased after her while cursing. Shen Li was panting. Just as she was about to give up, she suddenly heard hooves approaching.

Shen Li looked in the direction of the noise and saw a small path on the other side of the forest. Someone must be passing by.

She ran over with no hesitation. When she glanced back and saw a group of armored men and horses galloping towards her, Shen Li immediately rushed out and raised her hands to call out to the passing group.

“Help, help!”

Almost at the same time, the bandits behind them caught up. The leader of the bandits seemed to know the soldiers. When the two sides met, they shouted at each other and immediately crossed blades.

Shen Li stood frozen amid the chaos. Between continuing to run and asking for help from the soldiers, she finally chose the latter.

Her sharp eyes spotted a carriage not far away. She was sure that the person in it should be the leader of these soldiers. She might as well ask him for a safe haven.

Shen Li quickly put her thoughts into action. She ducked beneath the swinging blades and made her way to the front of the carriage.

“My Lord, I beg of you. Please save…”

Before she could finish, Shen Li was rudely interrupted.

There was a sword between Shen Li’s eyebrows. The tip of the sword touched her skin, and a red bead slowly formed on her skin.

Shen Li had a feeling that if she blinked, the other party would immediately take her head off.

Her eyelashes trembled as she spoke in a trembling voice.

“Please spare me, my Lord.”

The man in the carriage had handsome features, but his face was very dark. He looked at Shen Li with sharp eyes and spoke with a humorless smile.

“Who sent you?”

Shen Li wanted to shake her head, but thought better of it. From the corner of her eye, she noted that the man’s arms that were as thick as her calves. She raised her hands in a gesture of surrender and stammered, “I got married today, but I didn’t expect to meet bandits, so I come asking for help. N-No one sent me here.”

Si Yan’s long and narrow eyes narrowed. He sized Shen Li up from head to toe. After a moment, the killing intent in his eyes faded. Although he had retracted his sword, he still maintained a defensive posture.

He raised his eyebrows and said coldly, “What a coincidence that is.”

When Shen Li heard this, she felt a chill down her spine. She gulped and was about to explain herself when the neighing of horses outside interrupted them.

At the same time, the carriage shook violently.

Shen Li was half-kneeling, to begin with. When the carriage shook, she lost her balance and fell forward.

“Ah!”

Guan Fu heard the movement in the carriage and vocally submitted his report as he lifted the curtain to look inside.

“General, I’ve taken care of this group of blind people. It’s clean now.”

The last few words were said with great difficulty, because he realized that a girl had appeared in the carriage and was lying on his General’s thigh.

It was hard not to imagine when had transpired within.

Guan Fu had never seen Si Yan like this before. Just as he was avoiding eye contact with Si Yan, he heard Si Yan’s angry voice.

“Let go!”

Guan Fu’s hands trembled, and he immediately let go of the curtain.

In the carriage, Si Yan took a deep breath and looked at the woman who was still clinging to his thigh. He gritted his teeth and said, “I told you to let go. Didn’t you hear me?”

Shen Li shuddered. Just as she was about to prop herself up with her sore knees, she heard Si Yan shouting outside.

“Guan Fu, come in and throw her out.”

Shen Li froze mid-action and sank back down. She grabbed Si Yan’s clothes and wailed for help incoherently.

“D-Don’t throw me away. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story Pagoda. Moreover, I’m not a bad person. My father is Shen Jai, and he was an Imperial Censor before he died. Can I trouble you to send me to the palace of the Earl of An Ding?”

Shen Li had said everything in one breath. Suddenly, she felt something strange. She rubbed her moist fingers and looked down. She realized that the man’s leg was bleeding.

When she sensed the burning gaze on her head, Shen Li slowly raised her head. Her tongue was almost tied.

“I-I didn’t do it on purpose.”

At that moment, she suddenly regretted provoking this person.

After two seconds of silence, Shen Li turned around and said dryly, “Sorry for the disturbance. I’ll go home by myself.”

She only had to walk a little further. It was no trouble.

However, before Shen Li could take a step, she suddenly froze on the spot.

Si Yan’s large palm was warm, and there were thin calluses on his fingertips. He pinched the back of Shen Li’s neck and spoke in a voice that could freeze volcanoes.

“I do know the Imperial Censor of the Shen capital, but…”

Si Yan’s eyes suddenly narrowed. He exerted strength in his arms and lifted Shen Li in front of him. He looked as if he was going to break Shen Li’s neck.

He said in a gloomy and oppressing tone, “But I remember his daughter being mute. So, who are you?”
