Xu Maiyi sat on the wedding bed, her heart racing with anticipation and fear. She knew that her life was about to change forever, and not in a good way. Her father's threats echoed in her mind, reminding her that she was nothing more than a pawn in his game of power.

As she waited, she heard the noise coming from outside, the sound of assassins moving stealthily through the shadows. Xu Maiyi's eyes narrowed, her mind racing with the memories of the original storyline. She knew that the prince was about to be attacked, and she was the only one who could save him.

Without hesitation, Xu Maiyi made her move. She stood up, her eyes scanning the room for any sign of danger. And then, she saw him - the assassin, creeping up behind her with a dagger raised high.

Xu Maiyi didn't flinch. With a swift motion, she reached out and grabbed the assassin's wrist, twisting it sharply until the dagger fell to the ground. And then, in a move that would change everything, Xu Maiyi took a step forward, directly into the path of the arrow that was meant for the prince.

The arrow pierced her shoulder, sending a wave of pain coursing through her body. But Xu Maiyi didn't cry out. Instead, she stood tall, her eyes locked on the prince's face as he rushed towards her.

For a moment, their eyes met, and Xu Maiyi saw something there that she hadn't seen before - a glimmer of gratitude, of respect. And in that moment, Xu Maiyi knew that everything was going to be okay. She had changed the course of events, and she had saved the prince's life.
