I originally wanted to teach Xie Yuancheng a lesson, but looking at his pitiful appearance, I couldn't bring myself to do it.
"Yuancheng, you need to drink your medicine obediently. Last time you were so sick, yet you still managed to bully me. How annoying!"
"What do you mean? I finally found my runaway wife, and you still say I'm fake? Shouldn't I be angry!"
I almost laughed when Yuan Cheng glared at me angrily, but I stopped myself when I saw his resentful expression. Then I tried to talk to him, and he started complaining to me. I told him I wasn't waiting for him and didn't give him a chance to explain.
It turns out that the girl really did have a crush on him. Well, even though Xie Yuancheng was married and had three children, he was still quite young, not even twenty-three yet. It was understandable that girls liked him.
While we were in the chieftain's tent, the chieftain had been trying to arrange a marriage between Xie Yuancheng and Xie Yuancheng, but Xie Yuancheng refused every time. Later, the chieftain persisted and finally allowed us to go to Tianzhu with him.
I was indeed amazed when the girl appeared, so I assumed Xie Yuancheng would be too. Later, the girl came up with several reasons and even applied a very special fragrance from the Western Regions. As long as you stayed in one place with her for more than half an hour, you would smell her fragrance on your body.
She originally wanted to sow discord among us, and even tried to steal Xie Yuancheng away to make him her son-in-law!
"Ugh~ Such a pretty face, and she actually tried to steal my man. Thinking about it now, she's so ugly!"
I was furious when I heard this. It turns out I was being used by her. No wonder she never said a word when she appeared, she just stared at Xie Yuancheng.
"Ying'er~" Xie Yuancheng turned over and came inside: "You never listen to my explanations. It was the same when we first argued. Every time, we both end up hurt!"
"I... I thought she was pretty, younger than me, and had never had a child." I lifted the clothes on my stomach to look. "The stretch marks have all disappeared. When we came to the Western Regions, there were still some on there."
"Stop interrupting me. When has the medicine I prescribed for you ever gone wrong?"
I leaned closer to her, trying to please her: "Yuancheng~ You should forgive me. Although she speaks a foreign language, she is so gentle and incredibly beautiful. Of course I feel inferior to her."
Xie Yuancheng pinched my cheek and said, "I like girls like you. She's not good enough for me."
"Hmph!" I struggled to lean against the wall inside: "Of course you said that to me, as long as you wear men's clothes, you're a man."
"Take off your clothes and put on women's clothes and you're a woman. If you keep spouting your unique voice, I'll change your clothes."
"You stingy guy~" I kicked him, and Xie Yuancheng clutched his wound and cried out in pain. I was worried that I had kicked him, so I quickly went over to check on him.
As soon as she got close, Xie Yuancheng pulled her into his arms: "Her body is as soft as if it had no bones, and her skin is as white as snow. She is incredibly beautiful."
"Shut up!" All he does is praise. I was afraid of hurting his wound, so I tried to drift off to sleep. He leaned on my shoulder and closed his eyes.
"Don't sleep yet, tell me what happened next. What happened when you were in Central City?"
"What is it!" Xie Yuancheng's tone turned unfriendly: "Madam ran off with a few wild men, which almost made me have a stroke. Luckily, my teacher saved me."
"Tell me, how did that princess end up marrying the prince of Chequ?"
Xie Yuancheng then opened his eyes, which were watery and seemed to sparkle. But he just stared at me without saying a word, and I was getting impatient with him before he finally spoke.
When I fled, Xie Yuancheng ran back from the camp. Upon seeing the message I left for him, he was about to chase after me.
Just as he stepped out of the city gate, he ran into his teacher, who insisted on dragging him back. Then, after reading the message I left for Xie Yuancheng, the teacher began to make plans.
He was worried that Xie Yuancheng wouldn't be able to handle things here, so he first had Lingwu deliver some things and then helped Lingwu resolve some issues on his way over.
Without his help, we wouldn't have been able to escape the Western Regions so successfully. There are many spies in the Western Regions, not only from various countries, but most importantly from the barbarians, who are always bullying men and women on the road. I've heard that many people from the Western Regions have suffered as a result.
Xie Yuancheng had been listless for the past two days, so his teacher came up with a plan: to propose marriage on his behalf. Xie Yuancheng, of course, refused. However, the clan chief had already arrived with his people, and if Xie Yuancheng didn't respond, they would be in trouble in the Western Regions.
The teacher then suggested to the clan chief that they publicly recruit a son-in-law, and whoever could defeat the King of the Western Regions should become the prince consort of the Western Regions.
The clan chief readily agreed, as he could use this opportunity to eliminate the King of the Western Regions, seize the position himself, and bestow upon the young girl the title of Grand Princess.
The King of the Western Regions, unaware of the situation, continued his attack. The teacher first sent Lin Chao up, and Xie Yuancheng was the second to last, but even after being kicked several times, Xie Yuancheng refused to go on stage.
Later, when Changze saw that the King of the Western Regions was already red-eyed with rage, he went up directly. The teacher sighed inwardly. He had never intended for Xie Yuancheng to find a son-in-law; he had only given him the idea to support him until the barbarians attacked the city.
Changze won because the teacher helped him. However, the clan chief immediately changed his mind, and the girl didn't like Changze either, so Xie Yuancheng spoke up.
“Chief, in five days, barbarians will attack the city. If I cannot help you eliminate their leader, I will accept your punishment.”
"Alright, if what you say is true, as long as I kill the leader, I can make sure they never return. But even if they attack the city and you don't defeat them, you still have to follow my orders."
"That's natural."
After the banquet, Xie Yuancheng and his teacher set up the formation. Changze had brought quite a few people. He really liked that beautiful princess; she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
He had assumed Xie Yuancheng liked it, so he hadn't said anything. He hadn't expected Xie Yuancheng and his teacher to give him this good opportunity. Changze didn't hold Xie Yuancheng and Caiwei's switcheroo against each other and even granted Chequ Kingdom a title.
When the barbarians arrived, the chieftain began to panic. The girl was famous for her beauty, and the barbarians all wanted to take advantage of her, so they were very ruthless.
Xie Yuancheng deliberately tricked the clan chief into compromising, and the clan chief agreed for the long-term benefit of the Western Regions. However, there were too many variables on the battlefield, and Xie Yuancheng almost fell into the trap. It was only in the final, bloody battle that he managed to eliminate the great chief of the barbarians.
He said that the battle lasted a day and a night, and he thought he would never see me again. But when the sun rose the next day, he didn't know where he got the strength, and he managed to rush out and break through the defense line.
I was terrified. Hearing what he said made my heart pound. I quickly grabbed his hand and said, "Yuancheng, I'm sorry to you again."
"You've wronged me in so many ways, and you even jumped off a cliff for Lingwu. If he hadn't saved you, I would rather be beaten by the teacher than kill you."
I looked up and saw the cruel look in his eyes. I carefully leaned against him and said, "Is this all there is to it? What will happen after you win?"
