Chapter 1: Life or Reputation?



"Go ahead!" A sharp dagger was pressed against Song Qingci's slender waist. The man behind her roughly tied her hands behind her back and pushed her.

There was a boundary drawn in front of them with lime, and above the boundary stood a stone tablet with a line of words carved crookedly on it:

"Anyone who dares to enter Huaishan will be killed if he is a man or raped if he is a woman!"

Huaishan is a famous bandit den in this area.

Song Qingci bit his lip, turned his head and shouted, "Sun Xiaodie, let my maid go!"

About a few feet behind them, there was an ordinary black-roofed carriage parked, and she was shouting at the carriage.

"If you want Jiang Jingchu, I will give her to you. Just don't hurt my maid." Song Qingci said again.

Ten years ago, when she was eleven years old, she met Jiang Jingchu for the first time.

Seven years ago, when she was fourteen, she got engaged to Jiang Jingchu.

Six years ago, the Jiang family fell. In order to save Jiang Jingchu, she broke into the military camp alone and asked King Zhenbei for help. In the end, Jiang's father was beheaded and the rest of the Jiang family was exiled.

Song Qingci bid farewell to her parents, married Jiang Jingchu during his mourning period, and resolutely followed him to Liaodong.

Three years ago, Jiang Jingchu's mother passed away. Before she died, she held her hand and asked her to take good care of Jiang Jingchu.

Today, Sun Xiaodie, the daughter of the Liaodong Governor, kidnapped her and her maid, forced her into a bandit's den and raped her, hoping to replace her.

Where did Jiang Jingchu go?

Song Qingci didn’t know and didn’t expect it!

After ten years of love, she has come to see too clearly the people around her.

Since the first time he mentioned Sun Xiaodie to her a year ago, and seeing the light in his eyes, Song Qingci knew that something had changed.

The ones who pushed her to the brink of despair today were Sun Xiaodie and Jiang Jingchu.

Heartbroken? No.

Love does not collapse suddenly, but is eaten away day by day.

Because she lives too clearly and cannot tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes.

"Go in, go in!" The man pushed Song Qingci roughly into the boundary.

Song Qingci stumbled a few steps before he regained his balance and continued shouting at the carriage, "Sun Xiaodie, let my maid go!"

There was still no response from the carriage.

At this time, two ferocious men holding long knives suddenly jumped out from the overgrown roadside.

Both of them were shirtless. The one on the left had a long, frightening scar on his left cheek, while the one on the right had a beard, eyes like copper bells, and a ferocious look.

The two of them jumped out first, and then they looked at each other, as if they were the ones who started...competing?

Song Qingci was a little confused, and the man who had pointed a dagger at her ran away as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

The two bandits stared at each other for a long time, and then it seemed as if the winner was decided.

The scarred man shook the long knife in his hand and said to Song Qingci, "Can you read?"

Song Qingci nodded, then shook his head: "I don't know many."

"Look what this is!" The scarred man pointed at the boundary marker fiercely.

Song Qingci looked embarrassed, "I only know men... women... women..."

"Shit," the scarred man cursed, "You don't even know the word 'mountain'!"

The bearded man suddenly grinned, "Hahahaha, you don't even know the word 'gan'. At least I pronounced it as 'nan... 'nv 'gan'."

Song Qingci was speechless and couldn't help thinking that the results of your literacy campaign in the mountains were quite good.

But obviously it can't save the stupid ones.

They didn't realize it. Was she hiding her incompetence?

That’s right, the current situation was entirely planned by Song Qingci himself.

She actually knows something about yam.

It is no longer safe for her to stay with Jiang Jingchu. He is a scumbag and a bitch. His next step will probably be to murder her.

Sun Xiaodie’s biological father is the Governor-General of Liaodong and the local emperor.

In order to protect herself and to hold on until her parents and sister came to rescue her, Song Qingci bribed the maidservant around Sun Xiaodie, gave her "advice" and "forced" herself to go to Huaishan.

This bandit's den is much safer than Jiang Jingchu's.

Since the change of the head master, Mr. Fu San, three years ago, the mountain has gradually become orderly, attracting more and more people to go up the mountain.

There is food to eat and clothes to wear when you go up the mountain.

But many people don’t know this.

Song Qingci also heard about it by chance.

This boundary marker at the foot of Huai Mountain was built because there are too many people on the mountain. Master Fu San asked his men to think of a way to prevent more people from joining. So I don’t know which genius came up with this idea.

Song Qingci took this gamble.

The scarred man glared at the bearded man and said, "Why are you talking such nonsense? Hurry up and...little girl, I'm telling you..."

"I'm not a little girl, I'm married." Song Qingci pointed at her bun.

It’s safer to be married.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense?" The scarred man was furious. "I'm telling you, it says on this stone tablet: if you go to Huaishan, men will be killed and women will be raped! If you don't want to be raped, get out of here!"

Song Qingci thought to himself, you are the one who talks too much nonsense.

I've already stepped in, just follow the rules.

Am I not just waiting?

"I, I won't leave." She pinched herself, her eyes immediately reddened, tears about to fall, "I was forced to come to Huaishan. They kidnapped my maid. If I didn't come, they would have killed her."

As soon as he finished speaking, a woman was pushed down from the carriage, and then the carriage drove away.

"Hey, hey, hey--" The bearded man was so angry that he picked up his sword and ran to chase the carriage.

It's outrageous that they dump garbage into Huaishan!

The maid who was pushed down got up from the ground, saw where Song Qingci was, and rushed over like a hurricane.
