It was deep in autumn and the sky was blue. As the breeze blew gently, the orange yellow petals under the osmanthus fragrans also fell down with the wind, adding brilliance to the scenery in the garden.

A delicate-looking woman in blue sat quietly under the osmanthus fragrans tree, holding a cane round table with her hand and looking up at the sky. Her eyes seemed to be gazing at a distant place without focus, and even the falling of the osmanthus fragrans on the table could not distract her attention.

"Madam... Madam... the Duke, he..." A young maidservant who was about seventeen or eighteen ran in front of the woman, panting. If it weren't for the fact that she was in an emergency, she wouldn't have the heart to disturb Madam's peace.

The woman frowned unhappily and glanced at the maid, "What's the matter?"

The maidservant calmed herself down and hurriedly said, "Duke... he... he is dying... Madam... do you want to..."

She didn't dare to say the rest of the words. As the servant girl of Madam Ming, she naturally knew the suffering of her master. But after all, she was Madam Ming's husband!

The frown on the woman's face deepened. Five days ago, she had transmigrated from the 21st century into this body and became the wife of the Duke of the Northern Chen Empire.

Yes, she was from the 21st century. She was a modern person and the youngest medical professor in the famous School of Medical Education. However, an experimental drug caused the explosion of the laboratory. She also traveled here and inherited her body and her memory.

The name of the owner of this body was also called Chu Xin. She was the daughter of the Minister of Personnel, the Imperial Noble Consort's niece. Her status was noble, and she was also one of the most talented girls in the North Chen Kingdom. Everyone thought that she would marry the royal grandchildren and nobles, but unfortunately...

An imperial edict had ruined her life. Chu Xin had finally become a victim for them to draw the court officials over to their side.

At the age of fifteen, he married a Duke of Glory Yu Wenmo who would die soon. It was not to say that he was old. On the contrary, he was handsome and refined. He was also a rare handsome man in the North Chen Kingdom. He was only 25 but had inherited the Old Duke's title at the age of 20.

His younger brother, Yu Wenyi, was the valiant and battlewise Zhenbei General. His status was extraordinary and his family power was powerful.

It was a pity that Yu Wenmo had been frightened by the horse during a horse race. As such, he had fallen from his horse and lost his legs. The young man who should have been high-spirited had lost his light.

After that, she was even weaker and sick. The old lady worried that his condition would become worse, so she went to the palace and asked the emperor for a marriage, hoping to keep his bloodline.

Everyone knew that Duke Rong wouldn't live long and no one was willing to marry his daughter. However, Concubine De gave the talented daughter to Duke Rong.

The owner of this body was extremely upset. After she married into the Duke's Manor, she would not help to manage her inner courtyard and treat the people of the manor well. She would also look forward to the Duke's early death. That way, she could return to her parents' home and remarry. After all, they would not consummate their marriage.

In the past three years, perhaps the owner of this body was filled with hatred all day long, and his heart was as dead as ashes. That was why Chu Xin was forced to use the body to revive his soul!

Duke Ning's illness was getting worse and worse, and he had been dying with precious medicinal materials. Just now, his maid, Zilan, came to report it. Maybe it was because his nominal husband didn't have much time left.

Alas! Since she had taken this body, she had to be a husband and wife. It was necessary to go and have a look.

After careful consideration, Chu Xin got up and followed Zilan to the Duke's yard.

Chu Xin and Yu Wenmo came from different courtyards. Because they hated everyone in the Duke's Manor, they moved to the Southern Yard, which was the furthest from Yu Wenmo's courtyard. Yu Wenmo was in the Eastern Garden, so it was a little far away. They walked while recalling the memories in their minds.

Although her original master had been married for three years, she was not familiar with the manor at all. Fortunately, after her rebirth, she had wandered around the manor. She had never seen the Duke before. This was their first meeting and perhaps their last meeting.
