When they first met, he was a handsome scholar, and she was a bandit woman holding a martial arts tournament to find a husband.
She thought it was love at first sight. He thought she was the sweetheart he'd been betrothed to as a child.
"Hey, pretty boy, marry me and I'll let you go!" she said, having someone hold him down as he struggled.
He stared at the jade pendant around her neck and smiled as he agreed.
The next time he saw her, she was a wanted fugitive. He was the exalted crown prince's tutor, yet he could only watch as she was made a princess and sent away to marry for political alliance.
After all their twists and turns, just when he was about to win her heart, he learned that the person betrothed to him was someone else.
Li Mengling discovered that the person betrothed to him was her older sister: the woman who was well-read, courteous, and considerate, and had been imprisoned for ten years!
She was shocked, then doused with another bucket of cold water that brought her fully to her senses!
"Jiang Shuye, everything should go back to the way it was. I'll be a bandit woman, free and easy! You can be the tutor, living in luxury."
While Jiang Shuye stood stunned by the truth, Li Mengling clutched her horse's reins and rode north without looking back.

Jiang Shuye chased her to the northern lands and explained, "I'll make things clear to your maternal grandfather and break off the betrothal with her."
Li Mengling held the letter he'd given her and demanded, "What gives you the right to refuse to marry her? Is my sister unattractive, or are her manners and bearing not to your Jiang family's liking? You think you can just decide not to marry her? And you dare come to me and say something like this? Do you think no one from the Song stronghold is here?"
Jiang Shuye tried to explain, flustered. The more he said, the more he got wrong, until at last he could only ask in a small voice, "Don't you like me anymore?"
Li Mengling shook off his hand and answered coldly, "I don't!"
