The Bandit Woman of a Military Family

[My new story, Raising Cats After Becoming a Koi Fish, is available to preorder. Also available to preorder: Soaring to the Heavens by Playing an Abused Character [Quick Transmigration], Becoming a Charlatan in Ancient Times, and The Moonlight's Beloved Holds a Certain-Death Script] [Blurb:] Xue Jiuyuan seized a top-tier beauty and made him her bandit husband. She fell for him, only to discover that he was merely pretending to like her while secretly informing the imperial court so they could wipe out the bandits. In a fit of anger, she fought him, threw him down the mountain, and swore she would never see him again. But he turned around and repeatedly tried to coax her into coming with him to the military camp. She kept refusing, until her younger brother, whom she thought was dead, came looking for her. That night, she had a dream... In the dream, she willingly became the Crown Prince's concubine to clear the Xue family's name. She repeatedly mistook Xu Yinzong's kind assistance for something else. Only at the very end did she discover that the Crown Prince had merely been using her to take the throne. He had even killed her younger brother, whom she had just reunited with, and it was he who had framed the Xue family in the first place. She failed to assassinate the emperor and died beneath a storm of arrows. The man who had accused her of being spineless and vowed never to care whether she lived or died pulled the arrows from her body one by one and killed the new ruler, who had only just ascended the throne. When she wakes, she barges into the military camp and shamelessly insists, "You were the one who asked me to come. You have to take responsibility for me. Otherwise... I'll carry you back to my stronghold again!" PS: 1. The heroine starts as a bandit and later becomes a female general. 2. The hero starts out as a pedantic old bureaucrat and later becomes a doting husband with no limits. Preorder: Raising Cats After Becoming a Koi Fish Blurb: When Ge Luo was seventeen, someone in the Ge family finally remembered her, left to fend for herself in the mountains, and brought her home to marry. She heard her prospective husband hadn't opened his eyes in years. Her half-sister mocked her, her father's concubine sneered at her, and even her animal friends thought her good luck had run out. The little flower cat she'd picked up along the way had pinkish fur on its face. It told her with an air of arrogance, "Marrying him is a good deal." Ge Luo flicked her fish tail through the pond water, grabbed the cat, and rubbed its belly, perfectly at ease. "It's fine. We'll outlive him." The little flower cat: "..." Later... She discovered that her comatose husband was looking healthier and healthier, while the little flower cat she petted every day grew bigger and bigger. Its fur turned black and white, and one stormy night, it became one with her husband. The White Tiger True Lord proudly strode up to her. "I am the White Tiger True Lord of the Western Realm. I borrowed your fortune to survive this calamity. Come with me to the Western Realm, and you can go wherever you please." Ge Luo was so furious her eyes filled with tears. She pounded him with tiny, angry fists. "I don't want you! Give me back my cat!" "..." The White Tiger Cat True Lord slowly bowed his proud head, transformed into a fluffy little face, and rubbed against her palm. "Meow..." Three little koi mottos from the Daoist school: Fine. Sure. It's okay. VS The cat-spirit-possessed White Tiger Lord: Roar! Roar, meow. Meow meow meow... Preorder: Soaring to the Heavens by Playing an Abused Character [Quick Transmigration] Blurb: When Ye Ting first ascends to the Celestial Realm, she goes to receive her celestial rank and duties from the Star Lord Siming. After reading a few stories, she sees that all her favorite characters are tormented mercilessly. In a fit of anger, she curses the author out as a scumbag. Siming, the now-scorned Star Lord, darkens his face, waves his great brush, changes her celestial duties, and sends her into a story to suffer. Hundreds of years later, Siming is in a good mood after finally finishing a new, angsty story, despite having left it unfinished who knows how many times. But one of his celestial officials has been away for hundreds of years without returning to duty, so his report is overdue. He has violated the laws of heaven and will face a heavenly tribulation. He rubs his brow and asks the star child, "That person..." The star child reminds him, "My lord, it's Ye Ting. She's been punished by being sent into a story for hundreds of years." Siming: "...Other people beg for mercy after ten years... Was she tormented too badly? If she knows she was wrong, bring her back." The star child gives him a deeply conflicted look. "She conquered the world in the story." Siming: "..." * Ye Ting kills her "husband," proves her Dao, and returns to the Celestial Realm. The first thing she sees is Siming's black face, seething with resentment. She turns around to go back into the story, but enthusiastic celestial officials surround her, eager to interview her about what it was like to become an abused character and how to win against Siming. Ye Ting thinks seriously for a moment. "Maybe... I'm cultivating the Dao of Ruthlessness?" Siming and the immortals: "..." Preorder: Becoming a Charlatan in Ancient Times Blurb: Legend has it that the people of the ancient Wu clan could communicate with Heaven and Earth. When the Celestial Ladder collapsed, the various clans captured those with Wu bloodlines to reconnect Heaven and Earth. They were kept in captivity and slaughtered like livestock. Hundreds of years later, almost none of the Wu clan remained. On the second day after Ji Xing became separated from her clan, she too was shackled like livestock. Ji Xing: ...I predicted it right again and again and again... PS: The heroine is the world's best fortune-teller. She works diligently to scare the little people (and act like a charlatan), stirring up a storm wherever she goes. Preorder: The Moonlight's Beloved Holds a Certain-Death Script Blurb: Gu Xi accidentally finds a book and discovers that her life is merely a story within it.

After her death, she will become the general's unforgettable first love, an excuse for him to keep taking beautiful women as concubines. By her reckoning, her husband should be bringing his second wife to apologize to her soon. This time, she decides to divorce him. But the book still refuses to let her go...
