My Wife Conquers the Realm

It was an era of trouble and turbulence. Xie Rang fetched his betrothed, who had fled among refugees. She was a gentle, delicate young miss who was naive and adorable. After they married, they retreated to live in seclusion in the mountains and lived a peaceful and harmonious life there. However, his wife’s beauty was too striking. It attracted trouble. Bandits from a nearby peak took her. Just as Xie Rang was about to risk his life to save her, he saw his meek and fragile wife pick up a sword and, with a single strike, kill the bandit leader. Xie Rang looked around at the mountain stronghold, which was filled with displaced refugees. His heart softened for a moment, and he ended up becoming the new bandit leader. When the county magistrate came to exterminate the bandits, his wife cut him down. So, Xie Rang had no choice but to take over the county yamen, restore order, and provide relief. When rebel forces came to seize their territory, his wife killed the rebel leader. So, Xie Rang absorbed the rebel army. When a prince came to negotiate a deal with ill intentions, his wife killed the prince… His wife handled the killing but not the cleanup. So, Xie Rang followed behind, dealing with the aftermath—until, step by step, the mess grew larger and larger. One day, Xie Rang pointed to the map before them and said, “Look, my dear. This entire land—it’s all yours now.” Ye Yunxiu, who had transmigrated from a post-apocalyptic world: ‘Believe it or not, all I wanted was to have a quiet meal.’
