When Chi Jingyuan died suddenly and transmigrated into a matriarchal world, she awoke to find that the original owner had already starved to death while fleeing a famine.
She was tiny and emaciated, with a sallow, distorted face.
All she could do was struggle to stay alive.
But she never expected that the other people fleeing the famine would target her, too.
A disheveled, bedraggled man grabbed her and declared arrogantly, "From this moment on, you're my wife! Say yes and live, say no and die!"
Chi Jingyuan: ...
The man was plain-looking, but he had money and knew his way around.
Chi Jingyuan was successfully forced into a marriage, and it seemed she even developed some feelings for him.
But once the famine ended and they settled down, her down-and-out husband left her some silver and ran away!
After grieving, Chi Jingyuan pulled herself together and took the imperial exams.
On the day she placed first, she rode past on a white horse.
Then she was grabbed again.
The lofty princess studied her beautiful, fair face, then looked her up and down, taking in her tall figure.
She nodded imperiously. "You are acceptable. From today on, you are my wife. Say yes and live! Refuse and die!"
Chi Jingyuan: ...That sounds strangely familiar!
