Reborn as a Nomadic Chieftain

Pre-release: The Enchanting Consort Nearly Ruined Me Reborn as the chieftain of a nomadic tribe, she has ten thousand people under her command, but they lack clothes and food, and winter is just around the corner. Her people suggest that Shangguan Xiuqiu lead a raid to seize food from the people of the Central Plains. She slaps the suggestion down on the spot and scolds them: “How can we act like beasts?” Just as she is starving, a beautiful young woman arrives from the Central Plains. She offers a thousand dan of grain in exchange for rescuing her elder brother from the Anubi tribe. Her people scoff. “Anubi has forty thousand men under his command. Never mind that we can’t beat them, Anubi and we share the same ancestor. Why should we fight our own people for you?” Shangguan Xiu sees the beautiful woman looking so helpless and alone. If nobody looks out for her, she’ll probably be kidnapped into another tribe and forced to bear children. How pitiful! And Shangguan Xiu is worried about running out of food, too. She agrees at once. “Fine. I’ll go to Anubi and get him to hand your brother over.” Her people can’t help reminding her, “Chieftain, ours is the lowest-ranked tribe. By the rules of the grasslands, we’re not even allowed to set foot on Anubi’s territory.” Shangguan Xiu says expressionlessly, “Then we’ll start a fire and make them come out to negotiate. That way, we won’t be going in!” Her people are so shocked their jaws drop. “Uh!!! Chieftain, are you serious? How can we possibly beat them?” Shangguan Xiu declares, “I’m only asking them to join our big family and strengthen our forces. If they refuse, then we’ll join them instead. Either way, we can still get the man freed.” Her people: ... “What a wild woman!” The Central Plains girl gazes at the demon named Shangguan Xiu with astonishment in her beautiful eyes, and finds herself intensely intrigued. From then on, the tribe called Agun rises from obscurity. In an age of chaos among the Hu people, they surge north, slaughter Hu soldiers, and crush powerful clans, shaking the realm and making a name for themselves. Later, they found the Western Wei, unite all the peoples in a flourishing era of diversity, and end a century of chaos in the Central Plains. A Little Scene One day, Shangguan Xiu is once again being teased by her subordinates. “She’s clearly Hu, but she’s so eager to kill Hu people. You’d think she was from the Central Plains.” “Exactly! And she married such a beautiful wife, too.” “What does the chieftain getting married have to do with anything?” “She points, and the chieftain strikes. A henpecked wife and her enforcer, or, to put it briefly, a wife-controlled bruiser.” Shangguan Xiu is furious and wants to give those little brats a good beating. Since when did she become a wife-controlled bruiser? Suddenly, a soft, fragrant body wraps around her from behind, and her wife sweetly coos, “A Xiu, A Xiu, I’ve got my eye on something.” Shangguan Xiu instantly softens, her face full of loving kindness. “What has my dear wife got her eye on now? Buy it, buy it all! It’s not like we’re short of money!” Xiao Hao rubs her cheek against Shangguan Xiu’s. “There’s a coastal plain in the Southern Kingdom that’s perfect for growing lychees and longans. You like them, don’t you? So I was thinking of buying some land.” “Buy it! I’ll send a carriage right away.” Xiao Hao immediately puts on a pitiful look and sobs, “Boo-hoo-hoo, but they called me a vixen who brings ruin to the country, and refused to sell it to me. They didn’t just refuse to sell it, they said they’d rather toss it on the ground for dogs than give it to me.” “The Southern Kingdom dares to slander my wife like this?” Shangguan Xiu seethes with murderous intent. “Guards! Bring me the campaign map! From now on, everyone will have all the lychees they want.” “Once we’ve conquered it, we’ll eat them for free, and eat our fill!” The king of the Southern Kingdom, whose realm was destroyed over lychees: MMP! That damn merchant did me in! P.S. Grasslands war-god gong x Central Plains spy shou September 23: VIP publication notice. Three chapters will be released on launch day.
