Reborn Young Lady's Peerless Grace

Unexpectedly, when they were passing through a canyon, several big men suddenly jumped out and blocked their way.

The carriage suddenly stopped, and the driver raised his voice and asked, "My dear friends, why are you blocking our way? If you want money, we are willing to give you some silver. We only ask for your help."

As soon as he finished speaking, a man who appeared to be the leader stepped out from among the men. A sly smile flashed across his face as he glanced around the carriage, seemingly assessing the wealth of the people inside. "Of course we want money, but…" He deliberately dragged out his words, a hint of greed in his eyes. "If the lady in the carriage is willing to have a few drinks with us brothers, we brothers will naturally not embarrass you."

Shen Wanqing frowned, she knew that these people were not simple bandits, and their purpose was probably not just to make money.

She whispered to Jing'er, "Don't act rashly. I have my own plans." Then she whispered to the coachman outside the carriage, "Tell them we're willing to pay double the money, just for safe passage."

The driver followed Shen Wanqing's instructions and passed the message on. The leading man laughed heartily, seeming quite satisfied with Shen Wanqing's proposal, but his eyes revealed a malicious glint. "Double the silver? That's good, but we brothers would rather see the young lady's beauty. Why don't you get off the carriage and let's have a proper talk?"

Shen Wanqing's heart tightened, she knew these people would not let them go easily. She quickly thought of a countermeasure, and suddenly, she remembered a small flare that Du Zhijie had given her. It was specially made by the Du family and could send out a distress signal in an emergency.

She whispered in Jing'er's ear: "Find an opportunity, light the flare, and fire it towards the Du Mansion."

Jing'er nodded, knowing this was their only hope. She quietly took out a flare from the hidden compartment of the carriage, ready to launch it at the right moment.

At the same time, Shen Wanqing took out the drug powder she had developed and continued to deal with the men. There was no panic in her voice. "My dear men, we are just ordinary passers-by. We have no treasure, only some silver. If you are willing to let us go, we are willing to give all the silver we have."

The leading man seemed intimidated by Shen Wanqing's composure. He hesitated for a moment, but quickly returned to his greedy nature. "Miss, please stop pretending. Everyone knows that your Shen family is a wealthy family in the capital. We don't care about a mere sum of money. Today, you can either get out of the car and accompany us, or we will do it ourselves. Don't blame us for being rude then."

Shen Wanqing's heart sank. She knew these people wouldn't let them go easily. She took a deep breath and prepared to take action. Just then, Jing'er found her opportunity and lit a flare. A bright beam of light streaked across the sky, heading straight for the Du Mansion.

The men were startled by the sudden light, stunned for a moment, but quickly regained their ferocious nature. "How dare you play tricks? We'll punish you!" the leading man roared, brandishing his sword and charging towards the carriage.

"You can't afford to offend the people inside, so don't be unreasonable." The driver shouted angrily and started to wrestle with several big men.

The driver knew some martial arts, but he couldn't handle the crowd and was soon dragged away. However, he ignored his own safety and shouted at Shen Wanqing: "Run!"

"Let's go out first." Shen Wanqing pulled Jing'er over and held her medicine powder tightly in her hand.

They couldn't just sit in the carriage and wait for death, so they had to go out and think of a solution.

She knew that this road was difficult to travel on, but it was also safe and there had never been any robbers. It was a bit strange that they recognized her identity at a glance, as if these people were waiting for them on purpose.

After getting off the carriage, he saw the coachman being pinned to the ground by two people. He couldn't help but frowned: "Who ordered you to do this?"

"What are you talking about, young lady? We are robbers and don't need to be ordered around by anyone. But..." One of the men looked Shen Wanqing and Jing'er up and down and smiled lewdly. "If this one of you can make me feel comfortable, I'll tell you anything you want to hear..."

Shen Wanqing suppressed her anger and said, "I will pay you double the amount the person behind the scenes gave you."

The leading man was stunned, as if wondering how much of Shen Wanqing's words he could believe.

Shen Wanqing was just guessing, but when she saw the man's expression, she became certain of her thoughts.

They didn't encounter robbers today, Gongming was murdered. These people were clearly instructed to gamble with her. The people behind the scenes are despicable. These people clearly want to destroy her innocence.

Shen Wanqing's eyes flushed red as she watched these people getting closer and closer to her. Unsure if her powder would work, she couldn't gamble. She opened the powder packet and said, "If you dare to come one step closer, I'll throw it away and we'll die together."

Several big men looked at the white powder in her hand. Not knowing what the powder was, they didn't dare to move.

The people who bribed them had specifically told them that they had to destroy the young lady's innocence. If they didn't do it well, they wouldn't get any money. But they were after money in the end and didn't want to lose their lives here.

"Let's talk it over nicely. If you can cooperate a bit, you can suffer less. If you don't know what's good for you, don't blame us for being ruthless." The leading man smiled sinisterly. "Don't think that the powder in your hand is anything to go by. Even if you die, we won't let you go."

Shen Wanqing quickly glanced around to see if there was any possibility of escape. A flash of determination flashed across her eyes, but after looking at it, she looked disappointed.

"Can we still discuss this?"

"Of course, as long as you cooperate with us, we will support you."

Seeing that she had let down her guard, the leading man rushed up and pounced on her.

Shen Wanqing had been keeping an eye on him. When she saw him rushing towards her, she sprinkled half of the powder on her hand.

She was so ruthless that the powder went directly into the man's eyes.

The man felt pain and looked down in disbelief with a fierce look in his eyes.

"You are not a good person either, so don't blame me for being ruthless."

Shen Wanqing gritted her teeth. Seeing that the man's eyes were bleeding, it seemed that her medicine powder did have some effect. She pushed the man away with force, and the man fell to the ground.

The powder is deadly and shows no mercy.

These people wanted to destroy her innocence, so she couldn't be merciful, otherwise she would be doing herself a disservice.

These people probably didn't expect Shen Wanqing, a weak woman, to resist and even knocked down the big man who led them. It took a while before one of the men reacted: "Bitch, you're looking for death!"

Seeing the man's fist about to fall, Shen Wanqing calculated the powder in her hand. If she used it all on this man, there would still be two left, which would not be enough. Then she looked up at the fist. If this fist came down, she would also die here.

The situation was urgent and there was no time for her to think of a solution. She was about to sprinkle all the powder.
