The Bulwark Duke’s residence had fallen. On the day of the duke’s son’s wedding, all men in the family were imprisoned. In just three days, the patriarch and duke died. What was originally a joyful occasion became a depressing funeral. 
Shen Yijia had transmigrated as the unfortunate bride. By the time her husband was sent back home to her, he was crippled and heavily injured. Everyone said that this fallen family would never recover. Shen Yijia possessed a spirit liquid that helped her bring her husband back from the brink of death. When Song Jingchen woke up, he advised her to marry someone else instead. Shen Yijia stared at his handsome face and shook her head. “Don’t worry, I’ll keep you.” 
On the way back to their hometown, they encountered bandits and even suicide warriors who tried to assassinate them at all costs. Shen Yijia patted her chest and vowed to her beautiful husband, saying, “Don’t worry, I’ll protect you.” However, nosy people kept nagging at her, saying that a wife should be knowledgeable, reasonable, and virtuous. Was she supposed to help her husband pick out a concubine too? Shen Yijia was annoyed. As a modern woman, she couldn’t possibly get her husband a concubine! Her husband belonged to her alone!
For the sake of earning money, she hunted in the mountains, battled scum, and took in disciples. Eventually, Shen Yijia’s life became smooth sailing.

Many years later, they returned to the capital. Everyone assumed that Song Jingchen disliked having such a violent wife, and would soon divorce her to remarry. The young noblewomen rubbed their hands together in glee, waiting for Shen Yijia to leave so they could take her place. But as they waited and waited, they saw the Song Jingchen gently hold Shen Yijia’s hands right after the latter had beaten someone up. Song Jingchen asked worriedly, “Does it hurt?” [1v1 sweet love.

Shangguan Yao's cell was close to the door. When he heard the commotion, he looked up and saw the tray in the eunuch's hand. His pupils constricted, and he threw himself against the cell wall and shouted, "What are you doing? What are you doing?"


Qi Shou thought that he had misunderstood and explained kindly, "Your Highness, I'm here to send Lord Jing off."


Hearing his words, Shangguan Yao's eyes instantly turned red with anger. "Nonsense, you're spouting nonsense. Big Brother is Father's son. How could Father kill him? Did you say something to Father? Let me out. I want to see Father!"


Song Jingchen looked at him quietly for a long time before continuing onwards. Seeing this, Qi Shou quickly followed.


"You're not allowed to go. Come back here!" Shangguan Yao grabbed the wooden railing tightly with both hands. However, no matter how he shouted, there was no response. He could only watch as the few of them disappeared from his sight.
