The Hunter I Abandoned Ascended the Throne

[Sweet romance and everyday life]+ [Both leads have no past relationships]+ [Farming]

Qiao Xi was traded to Xie Xun for a deer.

The man was taciturn and fierce. He could catch a wolf with one hand and fight a tiger barehanded. Everyone was afraid of him.

Qiao Xi was afraid of him too, until she discovered he wasn't a bad man. Whenever he sold his game, he bought her hairpins and dresses, and promised they would marry once their new home was built.

By the time spring arrived, her wedding dress was embroidered and the new house was almost roofed. But her former subordinates came looking for her, demanding she avenge her father and brothers, who had failed in their bid for supremacy.

For the greater good, Qiao Xi was forced to leave and marry into the Great Qi through a political alliance.

On her wedding day, Xie Xun blocked her carriage and begged her to stay. Qiao Xi coldly replied, “You're just a poor hunter. You think you're worthy of marrying me?”

Later, the Xie Family Army rose to power, sweeping across the Central Plains and marching north.

The man, now Emperor Chengyuan, stepped over the corpse of the Great Qi emperor. With his bloodstained sword, he lifted Qiao Xi's chin and glanced at the little prince she held in her arms. His gaze was sharp as a blade, his whole being radiating violence as he sneered, “You had a child with a man like that, Qiao Xi? You really have made something of yourself!”

Qiao Xi shoved the little prince into his arms and snapped, “What took you so long?”

Xie Xun: “!?”

According to the folks, the founding emperor was once abandoned by a cook, who married off to an enemy kingdom.

To get revenge on the faithless woman, Emperor Chengyuan destroyed the enemy kingdom and dragged the cook into his palace.

The officials and the people of the capital craned their necks, waiting to see how their invincible emperor would torment the faithless woman... In Warm West Palace, he ignored her sweat-soaked clothes. His rough palm traced her back as he pressed his damp forehead against hers and asked, “Am I finally worthy of you now?”
