Life in the Central Plain was tough for a mountain girl.
But nothing was as tough as marrying the Duke.
Finally arrived in the capital city of Jin, Princess Liji and her sister prepared for her marriage to the Duke, but first she has to survive the ordeals waiting for her at the city gate.
Chief Shaman Moxi of Jin was said to have seen a vision in which she killed the Duke a few days before the princess' arrival at the capital city of Tang. Rumors that Liji was the devil's reincarnation started to spread like wildfire in the city. The shaman decided to burn her at an altar as a test to show whether she was favored by the Sky God.
Would Duke Godsend stop them before the atrocity happens? And would Nine-Lives rescue her even if it might mean going against the Chief Shaman appointed by his father?
How would Liji survive the test?
