I am an ominous person. Shortly after I married my husband, he passed away because of me. How dare I bring misfortune to the chief?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These words immediately silenced everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this world, ghosts and spirits have truly appeared, and many believe in fate. Women who have been widowed are avoided by most families.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elegant silk curtain of the carriage opened, and a fair, slender hand reached out, followed by a beautiful woman holding a baby, about twenty years old.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The baby had been put under some kind of spell, sleeping peacefully the entire time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman wore a light blue long dress, with a goose-yellow silk ribbon tied around her waist, making her slender waist appear easy to embrace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With an oval face, snow-white skin that seemed to shatter at the touch, and eyes full of spring water in February, it was hard not to fall into them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’What a beautiful young woman,’ Lou Yi praised silently in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She might just be the most beautiful person he’s seen since arriving in this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it might be due to his limited experience, as he’s always been wandering in the outer city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind the beautiful young woman, a girl in a pink dress with a round face and double buns followed, clearly a maidservant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her appearance was also considered pretty, but she paled in comparison to the beautiful young woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the beautiful young woman appeared, the bandits on Sunset Mountain began to breathe heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They usually encountered country women, incomparable to this noble lady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the light in the bandits’ eyes, the beautiful young woman seemed a little frightened, clutching the baby tightly in her arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maidservant bravely stood in front of the young woman, although her trembling figure showed she was merely putting on a brave face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who are you?\" Lou Yi asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I come from a merchant family, married off to Jiang City, and I am returning to my parents’ home,\" the girl in the blue dress replied softly, her voice like a gentle February breeze stirring one’s heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nonsense,\" Lou Yi shook his head. \"If you were just a merchant’s daughter, why would our chief go all out to intercept you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you don’t speak the truth, I’ll take both of you to the mountain for the brothers to enjoy.
