"Let's do it for a month. After a month, whether I'm pregnant or not, I will let you go. I will never break my promise."
Fang Xiyue thought that if she tried for a month and still didn't get pregnant, it would prove that their bodies were incompatible and it would be difficult for them to have a child. In that case, she would go and snatch another man back.
"I believe you. I can stay, but could you please let my people leave?" Gong Yunxiao thought that he couldn't let his younger sister and the others suffer in this mountain stronghold. What if they were taken advantage of by the men in the stronghold... the consequences would be unimaginable.
"I know what you're thinking, but you can rest assured that our village is completely different from what you imagine. There isn't a single bachelor of marriageable age."
I was the last person in the whole village to get married; the rest are just children, they wouldn't do such a dirty thing.
Fang Xiyue felt that Gong Yunxiao's suspicions had hurt her brothers. Everyone in the mountain village except her had truly married freely, and they only got married after both parties were satisfied with the girls from the villages down the mountain.
"Disgusting?" Gong Yunxiao's gaze fell on Fang Xiyue.
"I know what I did was despicable, but I had no choice. I have a bad reputation and no man wants to marry me. If I don't force myself on him, when will I ever have a child of my own?"
Fang Xiyue drank a glass of wine. Her bad reputation had been around for a long time, and she didn't care at all.
Gong Yunxiao clearly heard self-mockery in Fang Xiyue's words, and he actually felt a pang of heartache.
"I believe what you want will come true." Gong Yunxiao didn't want to talk about his difficulty in having children, so he let her hold onto a little hope.
For the next ten days, Fang Xiyue indulged in nightly revelry, and Gong Yunxiao lost a lot of weight because of Fang Xiyue's antics, with dark circles appearing under his eyes.
"Xi Yue, why don't you go and snatch another one!" Gong Yunxiao felt that if things continued like this, he wouldn't even last a month before he was buried.
Fang Xiyue also felt that Gong Yunxiao was overwhelmed and was thinking of snatching another one. Are all men this weak? She was the one who was more tired!
Fang Xiyue felt that things couldn't go on like this, so she decided to go down the mountain later to see if a man she liked would happen to pass by, and then she would snatch him back.
She didn't let her younger brother go down the mountain alone, but she didn't have high hopes either, so she just strolled around.
Just as she was idly throwing stones for fun, she suddenly heard the noisy sound of horses' hooves.
Looking in the direction of the sound, one could see dust billowing in the distance, and a troop of people galloping towards them.
To be precise, it was a person being chased by a group of people, and the people being chased were majestic and imposing, exactly the type she liked.
His face was resolute, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes. He wore a golden armor and rode a chestnut horse, which was very eye-catching.
The pursuers behind them all wore black face masks, but their physiques and coordination made it clear that they were well-trained soldiers.
So it turns out that her second husband was betrayed by his own people. He was probably a general, but whether he was famous or not is unknown.
"General Nan, stop struggling and surrender."
The shouts from the pursuers behind her made Fang Xiyue realize the general's identity: General Nanxuan, the General Who Stabilizes the Nation.
It is said that their family originally had the surname Jun, but the character Jun cannot be used casually, so they eventually changed their surname to Nan.
It is said that this General Nan was a man of great military achievements, having led his troops to resist foreign invasions and protect the peace of the border on many occasions. As a result, he was famous and loved and respected by the people.
Yet even someone like him was being hunted down. He was covered in blood and pale-faced, probably seriously injured, perhaps betrayed by someone he trusted.
Fang Xiyue used her lightness skill to fly over and block the pursuers behind her. Her martial arts skills, while not invincible, had never been defeated. Before long, only 20 horses remained standing.
Fang Xiyue sent a signal flare to her underlings, telling them to get down and lead the horses, while he flew to Nan Xuan's side.
Nanxuan stopped when he heard that someone was helping, thinking that he shouldn't implicate others. He was truly amazed by the heroine's heroic figure.
"General Nan, as the saying goes, a life-saving grace should be repaid with one's body. I saved your life, so come and be my husband."
Fang Xiyue winked at Nan Xuan with a smile on her face.
"You, stop talking nonsense!"
Nanxuan's face turned red; he had actually been teased by a woman.
"I'm not talking nonsense, and I never talk nonsense. Since you're unwilling, I'll just have to take it by force."
As Fang Xiyue spoke, she charged at Nan Xuan, who brandished his spear and thrust it at her.
Fang Xiyue dodged easily by sidestepping, and then, taking advantage of her superior lightness skill and Nan Xuan's injury, she gained the upper hand.
However, Nanxuan was a seasoned veteran and could not be easily defeated. The two fought back and forth, and there was even a sense of mutual respect between them.
However, Nanxuan was injured after all, and in the end, he was caught off guard by Fang Xiyue, who grabbed his belt and flew back to the mountain stronghold with him.
The underlings who came down only had time to catch a glimpse of their leader, but they still went to the foot of the mountain and brought all the horses back.
As for the dead, they were simply poured with medicine and turned into blood; with a scattering of sand, nothing could be seen.
“My husband, my husband, I’ve found a second husband to help you share the burden. Look how handsome he is.”
Fang Xiyue led Nanxuan back to the room. Gong Yunting was leaning against the headboard reading a book when he saw Nanxuan, and his eyes widened.
"General Dingguo?"
He could hardly believe his eyes. General Dingguo, like him, had no wives or concubines and was once rumored to be impotent. He was curious whether he could actually be impotent.
"Yes, that's right. I'm really amazing. My dear husband, I'm getting married to Nanxuan tonight. I'm sorry to trouble you to stay in the room next door, but I'll still come to keep you company from time to time."
Fang Xiyue placed Nanxuan on the small couch and then went to call someone to prepare the wedding clothes.
Nan Xuan was immobilized by acupressure and was shocked to see Gong Yunxiao. The prince had actually married a female bandit? Although the female bandit was very beautiful, her status was questionable.
As soon as Fang Xiyue left, Gong Yunxiao walked up to Nan Xuan and said, "General Nan, since you're here, make the best of it. Thank you for coming."
After Gong Yunxiao finished speaking, he began to pack his small bag. Although he had only been on the mountain for ten days, he had new clothes to wear every day. Although they were not expensive materials, they were not bad either, and they were very comfortable to wear.
Nanxuan clearly saw the happiness and relief in Gong Yunxiao's eyes. Could it be that the female bandit was good at torturing people?
When Nanxuan lay in bed that night with a red veil covering her head, she still felt like she was dreaming.
When Fang Xiyue came in, lifted the red veil, and fed him the nuptial wine, he still felt like he was dreaming.
But when he was honest with Fang Xiyue, he lost his composure. "I... I'm still injured."
He wanted to use this excuse to get Fang Xiyue to let him go, but he didn't expect that Fang Xiyue had no intention of letting him go at all, and instead undressed even faster.
