Chapter 1: Transmigrating into a Book
Ji Zhisui died.
When I opened my eyes again, I heard the strange man's angry scolding and the sound of a whip breaking through the wind.
She felt like someone pushed her hard, and she felt weak all over and could hardly stand.
At this moment, a big hand pulled his elbow hard. Ji Zhisui, who was about to fall to the ground, was able to stand firmly because of this force, and then the hand moved away.
She looked over curiously and saw a tall and straight man standing next to her. He had a cold temperament and a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes. His eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of ice. However, his face was thin and pale, and he looked weak and haggard, and looked sick.
Then, unfamiliar memories came flooding back.
She traveled through time and space and ended up in a novel called "The Highest Official" with a male protagonist. The male protagonist was the youngest son of a great general, but because his father and brother collaborated with the enemy and sold out the country, the emperor exiled his family to Lingnan.
During the exile, some family members died and some fell ill, and the male protagonist was poisoned by the emperor, his martial arts skills were completely destroyed, and he was undoubtedly a disabled person.
The protagonist's mind also began to twist. He secretly planned and supported the most inconspicuous Sixth Prince to ascend to the throne, rehabilitated the great general who guarded the country, and became the regent with great power in the court.
He is dark-hearted and ruthless, and is a treacherous minister of his generation.
This villain-type male protagonist is Pei Yian, who helped her before, and she herself became the wife of the male protagonist in the book who died on the way to exile.
Her original name was Ji Zhisui. She was the fourth daughter of the Marquis of Weiyuan, born to a maid. She was not welcomed in the mansion. The one she was engaged to, Pei Yian, was the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Weiyuan, and her elder sister.
Unexpectedly, on the eve of the wedding, news came that the general who guarded the country was going to be exiled for collaborating with the enemy. The Weiyuan Marquis family was reluctant to send their pampered daughter to exile, but also did not want to cause gossip, so they simply let the original owner marry in her place. The night before the exile, they sent her to the general's mansion.
After sorting out these memories, Ji Zhisui sighed heavily. How could she be so miserable as to travel through a book?
But it is not possible to go back. The big truck knocked her over. It is a waste of her life to come to this world.
Since she is here, she will make the best of it. She wants to live well in this world!
Although she convinced herself mentally, she felt differently physically. She felt dizzy, her throat was dry and thirsty, she was physically and mentally exhausted, and her eyelids were about to droop.
But looking at the dark sky, the angry shouts of the yamen runners, and the sound of whips breaking through the air, she did not dare to delay at all and could only move forward based on instinct.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the leading bailiff brought everyone into a cave that could shelter them from the wind and rain. Ji Zhisui followed Pei Yian and found an open space to sit down. Only then did she feel like she could finally take a breath and rest.
No one had time to rest. They had to start preparing dinner. Pei Yian stood up, his body a little shaky, his voice hoarse: "Grandma, Mom, I'm going out to find something to eat."
Ji Zhisui looked at Pei Yian and found that his face was paler than before, with veins bulging on his forehead and cold sweat.
Looking at him like this, I remembered that the book said that Pei Yian was poisoned and would feel severe pain in his body after using great force. I thought about how I almost fell down before and was pulled back by him with great force.
During the exile, if someone slowed down, fell to the ground, or was in a bad mood, the yamen runners would whip them.
If Pei Yian hadn't held her up with great strength, she would have been torn to pieces.
So...his behavior has a lot to do with me.
Perhaps her gaze was too intense, the man's eyes fell on her, and he glanced at her lightly, but that glance made Ji Zhisui feel as if she was seen through. She looked away a little unnaturally, not daring to look again.
Naturally, the other members of the Pei family also noticed that something was wrong with Pei Yian. He had difficulty walking in this state, let alone going out to look for food.
A woman in a headscarf stood up and said firmly, "Third brother, you don't look well. I'd better go out and find something."
Ji Zhisui's eyes fell on the woman and he knew that this was Pei's second wife, childhood sweetheart of Pei's second brother. She was a woman with a strong and resolute character. When the house was confiscated, she did not choose to divorce and still stayed with the Pei family.
However, in the original book, Mrs. Pei and Mrs. Pei were on their way out to look for food when they unfortunately encountered a wild beast and their bodies were completely destroyed.
"I'll go with Qin Niang." A somewhat old voice came. It was Mrs. Pei. Although her face showed obvious signs of old age, she was the pillar of the Pei family besides the male protagonist.
After saying this, Mrs. Pei planned to go out with Mrs. Pei.
After hearing this, Ji Sui'an, who was still recalling the plot of the original book, immediately realized that if these two people went out, they would probably encounter danger.
"etc!"
Hearing this voice, everyone in the Pei family looked at Ji Zhisui with a hint of surprise.
During her exile, the original body had no will to live and was like a walking corpse without saying a word. The Pei family also knew that the original body should not have endured this disaster, so they took good care of her along the way.
Facing everyone's curious gazes, Ji Zhisui didn't care about anything else. He gritted his teeth and went straight to Mrs. Pei. "Grandma, you stay and have a good rest. My second sister-in-law and I will go out together."
Since she had to go out, she didn't let Pei Ersao go into the mountains to avoid this disaster.
"No need, Sui Niang, you stay and have a good rest!" Old Madam Pei was also shocked by Ji Zhisui's initiative. After all, it was their Pei family that dragged her down, otherwise she would not have to suffer the pain of exile.
"Grandma, I want to go out with my second sister-in-law." Ji Zhisui spoke again firmly. The old lady was very old, and she felt bad asking her to go out and busy herself while she rested.
Second Sister-in-law Pei looked at the gray-haired Old Madam Pei, and felt bitter. She also joined the ranks of admonishment, "Grandma, you go and rest. Leave the cooking work to me and Sui Niang."
"Why don't I go instead?" Pei, whose face was even paler, said.
"No." Three voices rang out in unison.
Pei was already weak, and this exile had made her even more fragile. If anything unexpected happened again, I'm afraid...
In the book, although Pei was exiled to a place, he was weak and died within a few months.
Ji Zhisui was quick-witted and pulled Pei Ersao out. It would be better to find food and come back as soon as possible than to continue pulling.
She didn't notice that a pair of ink-black eyes narrowed slightly, staring in the direction she left.
