I Ran into Love While Eloping

[Early work, not recommended reading QAQ]

Less than two months after returning to the capital from the border, Ye Zhao received an imperial decree arranging her marriage.

Rumor had it that her intended groom was not only a frail invalid, but also a dissolute playboy.

There was no way she was getting married. Whoever wanted to could marry him!

Set on her decision, Ye Zhao planned to sneak over the wall that very night and head south, disguised as a man, determined to make her way in the jianghu.

But after losing her money pouch, she wound up becoming the bodyguard of a young nobleman by sheer coincidence.

At some point, Shen Qinghuai realized that his gaze was always drawn to the bodyguard at his side.

Naive and reckless, yet... with an indescribable youthful spirit.

For no apparent reason, he thought of the opera Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai. If the other party really did have a twin sister, he would gladly marry her and stay together until they were old and gray.

*

Ye Zhao had thought that Linjiang City, renowned throughout Jiangnan, would be a bustling place.

But seeing it with her own eyes, she found refugees wandering homeless, grain prices soaring, and a strange case of a rice merchant dying suddenly.

The truth remained to be uncovered...

A free-spirited, unruly general's daughter VS a frail, scheming young nobleman
