The bandits were terrified. The man had fallen down a steep slope and his fate was unknown.

The other party's identity was enough to make them all pay with their lives.

This operation yielded nothing, yet ended in such a disastrous outcome.

As Wang Long led the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry over, these mountain bandits dared not resist at all.

Soon, the bandits were surrounded.

Wang Long jumped off his horse, kicked the leader of the bandits to the ground, and roared, "Where is the prince?"

The bandit leader's face froze in fright. He pointed to the deep slope and said, "They fell down with that woman."

"What?" Wang Long's expression changed drastically, and he ordered, "Kill all these bandits, raze the stronghold to the ground, and kill everyone connected to them."

The fates of King Qin and Zhen Mi are currently unknown.

These two individuals hold high positions in the Great Jin Dynasty, and their simultaneous mishaps are a responsibility he cannot bear.

"Someone, go and find the Prince and Miss Zhen!" Wang Long said urgently.

At this moment, in a cave at the bottom of the deep slope.

Chen Xuan and Zhen Mi both rolled inside. The area outside was overgrown with weeds, and the two were afraid that the bandits outside would discover them, so they did not go out.

Are you alright?

Looking at Zhen Mi's flushed face, Chen Xuan's eyes revealed a hint of worry.

At this moment, Zhen Mi's hair was loose, revealing her stunningly beautiful face to Chen Xuan.

This face was like that of a celestial being; one glance was enough to leave Chen Xuan speechless.

"Your Highness, thank you so much today. If it weren't for you, I would have fallen into the hands of those bandits, and the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Zhen Mi gazed at Chen Xuan with her beautiful eyes and said gratefully.

Unexpectedly, this trip to the capital without informing the clan resulted in such a tragedy, causing the guards to pay with their lives.

Zhen Mi has always been kind-hearted, and at this moment, she is also deeply remorseful.

Why is your face so red?

After noticing Zhen Mi's unusual behavior, Chen Xuan frowned and asked.

Zhen Mi felt hot all over and her lips were dry. She said truthfully, "Those bandits sprinkled some medicinal powder on me, and now I feel very hot all over..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan immediately understood what had happened.

These bandits are truly shameless; they actually drugged Zhen Mi with that kind of drug.

However, Chen Xuan secretly felt fortunate at this moment.

If I hadn't arrived in time, this beautiful woman, who possessed both talent and beauty, would probably have become a plaything for these bandits.

"These bastards are truly shameless. Once we escape this time, I will definitely exterminate their entire clan!" Chen Xuan said through gritted teeth.

"thirsty……"

Zhen Mi spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Lie down here and rest. I'll go get you some water."

Chen Xuan had Zhen Mi lie flat on a stone slab and quickly went to collect some dew.

Zhen Mi is currently in very bad shape and needs to replenish her fluids.

However, drinking the dew did not improve Zhen Mi's condition.

The "Charming Bone Powder" was an ancient medicine that bandits obtained from the black market.

This drug was often found in brothels. No matter how dignified a woman was, once she took it, the subsequent changes would be particularly terrifying.

"hot."

The word fell.

Chen Xuan frowned and quickly helped her remove her outer robe to cool down.

Her fair skin resembled lotus root, and her eyes were like silk. In this state, she appeared charming and captivating.

"You lie here first, I'll go away for a bit."

Although Chen Xuan was captivated by Zhen Mi's beauty, he would never take advantage of her under such circumstances.

Even if he wanted to win Zhen Mi's heart, it would be half a month later, after he passed the selection test for a son-in-law by the Zhen family of Jizhou, and then openly and legitimately married Zhen Mi, making her his woman.

"Don't go."

Just as Chen Xuan was about to leave, Zhen Mi's jade-like hand suddenly grasped hers, her eyes fixed on her.

With just one glance, Chen Xuan felt as if he had been electrocuted.

"I won't leave; I'll stay by your side."

Chen Xuan had no choice but to sit down next to Zhen Mi.

Zhen Mi, in her battle-worn state, was beautiful and captivating, exuding the unique fragrance of a noblewoman.

Chen Xuan sat next to her, and it was inevitable that his mind would wander.

He tried his best to suppress his thoughts and refrain from looking at anything inappropriate.

To gain a foothold in the Great Jin Dynasty, one must seize the position of Crown Prince.

As a noblewoman from a prominent family, Zhen Mi would only make things worse and disgusted if she took advantage of someone's misfortune.

On the contrary, it will affect his political future.

Those who achieve great things need to constantly restrain themselves.

Chen Xuan understood this principle well.

But just then, Chen Xuan suddenly realized that Zhen Mi had picked him up from behind.

His mind was filled with complex emotions.

What should he do if Zhen Mi takes the initiative later?

"Your Highness, I want to be your woman. Your poetry is amazing, and you risked your life to save me. I am willing to give myself to you!"

Zhen Mi hugged his neck tightly, her breath hot as she spoke. Chen Xuan was in this situation for the first time and didn't know what to do.

"Miss Zhen, you're still not fully awake, you should rest first."

Before Chen Xuan could finish speaking, Zhen Mi hurriedly said, "No, I know perfectly well what I'm doing. Is Your Highness rejecting me?"

These words immediately caused Chen Xuan to open his mouth in surprise.

Although he hadn't known Zhen Mi for long, he knew that she possessed the refinement of a noblewoman from a prominent family.

But how did it turn out like this?

Although I knew in my heart that it was the medication taking effect.

Damn, this drug is too powerful! It turned a woman who had traditional morals ingrained in her bones into such a grotesque and unsightly person.

"no."

"Once the selection of a son-in-law is approved, I will formally marry Miss Zhen."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xuan's mind was in turmoil.

Zhen Mi's captivating smile, a smile beneath her beautiful face, was enough to throw Chen Xuan's heart into turmoil.

"Since Your Highness has decided that Mi'er is destined to be your woman, what difference does it make if it's sooner or later? Could it be that Your Highness is incapable in some way? Or perhaps you lack the courage? Or are you just pretending like those hypocritical scoundrels?"

The seductive voice made Chen Xuan's face turn ugly.

Damn it, what decent man could stand such an insult?

Since I've already decided she's my woman, what's wrong with getting her sooner?

Moreover, as a time traveler, he was not bound by any social norms.

Zhen Mi has already said so much; if he continues to push and shove, wouldn't he really be the kind of man Zhen Mi described?

Suddenly, Chen Xuan grabbed Zhen Mi's waist and kissed her red lips.

Dry wood catches fire; it ignites instantly.

"Since Miss Zhen is like this, then I, Chen, will not let you down." Chen Xuan pressed Zhen Mi down onto the stone slab.

Night had fallen, and insects were chirping in the forest.

A cool breeze blew through the weeds into the cave.

Who would have thought that such a scene would be unfolding inside a cave in this desolate mountain forest?

"Your Highness, why are you like this... Mi'er is your woman now~" Zhen Mi's intoxicating voice came.

At that moment, the soldiers outside were searching for Chen Xuan and Zhen Mi, shouting at the top of their lungs, "Your Highness, Miss Zhen..."
