[Great Yan had never again produced a War God of such fame.
When it came to Xie Jingyuan, in addition to disdain and contempt, everyone sighed.
The Xie Family then had military power, but the tree was so large that it attracted the wind and fear of the Emperor. Who knows whether it was true, or they were set up, but then they were involved in the mutiny, and the whole family was involved, except for the side families.
Xie Jingyuan was the son of a concubine of one of the sons of the Xie Family.
As a young man, he enlisted in the army and rose from a mountain of blood to a high position. He was able to break the sun by pointing his sword at the sky, broke through the barrier of millions of soldiers on a battlefield, and defeated dozens of Northern generals. All this was enough for him to be awarded the title of Marquis of the first rank.
Such a man, if not for the accident on his face when he was young, could have been described as amazingly talented. It was a pity that Xie Jingyuan was later given by His Majesty as a wife to a man named Chu Xinian, from the family of the Marquis of Quyang, and was humiliated and disowned in every possible way.
However, Xie Jingyuan was ruthless and rebellious by nature, and joined the Crown Prince in the struggle for the throne, using his military power to help him rebel. However, before such a mutiny happened, Chu Xinian revealed his movements and was captured by Prince Jin.
As punishment, Xie Jingyuan’s limbs were pierced by arrows and his veins and tendons were destroyed. The once renowned War God was reduced to a trapped beast, covered with cuts and bruises, and dust-stained knees.
In the twenty-eighth year of Qisheng, his Majesty condemned the Crown Prince’s party, but Xie Jingyuan would rather die than surrender. His Majesty was furious and ordered him to be imprisoned for eternity.
In the winter of the thirty-fifth year of Qisheng, the Emperor died and Prince Jin ascended to the throne.
In the same year, Xie Jingyuan died. His body was taken out of the cell, and although he was covered with a white cloth, he was so skinny that the shackles could barely be held. The new Emperor ordered that he should be buried in the deserted suburbs of the northern mountains, and after his death, he was buried amongst the snow and mud.
Excerpt from the second revised edition of the online novel “A Thousand Years of Feud”.]
…
In the early spring of the twenty-first year of Qisheng, the air was still very cold. A group of men sped into the Capital from the outskirts of the city, kicking up endless dust and dirt, but the guards at the city gate stopped them with their swords because of their rampage.
“Who’s coming!”
The man in the lead was dressed in black and carried a long sword, he seemed to be the soldier of a noble family. He was riding a strong horse, and on it was a young man in a large red wedding dress, whose limbs hung limply and his head was drooping, as if he had fainted.
When the General at the door looked at him, he saw that the young man’s head was wounded and covered with blood, and his tone became more serious, “What’s going on!”
The man in black clothes had to stop the reins and show the token on his waist, his expression was dark, “By the order of the Marquis of Quyang, I am taking the Second Young Master back to the Capital, it is very urgent, don’t stop me!”
Ah, so he is the “Second Young Master” of the Marquis of Quyang’s family who escaped from marriage.
The General at the gate suddenly understood and immediately raised his hand to indicate that he could pass, only to see the powerfully clothed man wave his whip, and a dozen horses and mounts rode away shrouded in smoke to the East.
Onlookers pointed and gossiped.
Great Yan society was open and men could marry men. Since the previous year, General Xie Jingyuan had been ill, and recently he had been in a dangerous condition, vomiting blood more than once. The Imperial Secretary was watching the skies at night and discovered that a ghostly demon was in his body, and he must choose someone with a Yang destiny to marry to overcome this calamity.
No matter how you look at it, it is unlikely to marry a woman, for he is of Yin energy. The Imperial Secretary opened a trigram and calculated the birth dates of almost all the young men of noble families in the Capital, and finally chose the second son of the Marquis of Quyang, Chu Xinian.
Born in the East at noon on the sixth day of June, he belonged to the Yang Wood. A pure Yang wood, strong-bodied, like peaches and plums in Spring, like a harvest in Summer. This was a perfect destiny!
Xie Jingyuan was the pillar of the Great Yan Empire. Now the sea was calm and the river was clear, and the four seas were at peace, all thanks to him fighting and repelling the barbarians. And naturally, the Emperor was reluctant to leave this beloved general and immediately issued an Imperial Decree bestowing the Chu Family a marriage. Ordering Chu Xinian and Xie Jingyuan to marry within three days.
It stands to reason that it should not be so hasty, but General Xie was on his last breath and, if he did not marry now, he might die.

Such a good man should have been the object of great admiration.
But it is a pity…
The most terrifying thing in the world is the word “pity”.
Xie Jingyuan had been disfigured by an accident and wore a silver mask daily. In addition to being a loner by nature, his temperament was unpredictable, making him very difficult to deal with.
Two years ago, he took over military power and led an expedition to the Southern Empire, returning a year later. When news reached the Capital, everyone knew that he had massacred six cities of the Southern Empire and killed 50,000 enemy soldiers. Blood covered the ground and corpses were scattered all over the land, turning the Southern Empire into a ghost city.
Those who heard the news were dumbfounded, secretly telling their children that this man was ruthless and that they should not be friends with each other. The daughters of good families also did not dare to marry him and stayed away from him, making Xie Jingyuan the most untouchable ghost-faced Yama of Great Yan.
However, soon after returning to the Capital after the war, Xie Jingyuan suddenly fell ill, coughing up blood every day. It was rumored that he had committed too many murders, and tens of thousands of ghosts from the Southern Empire haunted him at night, trying to claim his life.
It was at that moment that the figure of Chu Xinian entered the scene.
People could talk about the second son of Quyang Manor for three days and three nights, and they would never stop talking about the foolish things he had done. He played with dogs and cats, hung out in brothels, stayed in gambling houses for three months, and lost all his family’s jade pendants. He was truly the dandy of dandies and the shit of shit.
One day ago, it was the wedding day of Chu Xinian and Xie Jingyuan. This Second Master Chu was something when he heard that he was going to marry an ugly monster, he fled with his things at night, and also took a courtesan from a brothel with him, intending to elope to the ends of the earth.
Although the news was kept secret, rumors spread like wildfire. It was a fact that on the night of the wedding, the Forbidden Army held torches and searched for someone during the night, and it was also a fact that dozens of Quyang Manor experts left the city with fast horses. Weren’t they looking for someone?
Look, just now the servants of Quyang Manor directly caught that unfortunate man, Chu Xinian, back. They didn’t know how his Majesty would punish him and how Xie Jingyuan would react. It seemed that he would not be able to escape death.
There were gloomy clouds over the Quyang Manor. Sitting in the main seat of the hall was an elegant woman with a charming face. It was easy to see how beautiful she was when she was young, but her face was now gloomy, suppressing some of her radiance and beauty.
In the background was a group of kneeling servants, and on the floor was a man lying comatose with his eyes closed, the unfortunate Chu Xinian, as people now called him.
Madam Quyang eventually could no longer restrain herself and slammed the table, she said with a face full of anger, “Wake up that scoundrel!”
While Marquis Quyang had a weak temperament, Madam Quyang was of strong character, and acted with vigor and determination in controlling the house, both inside and outside. The servants did not dare to disobey her, so someone immediately brought a basin of cold water and poured it directly on Chu Xinian.
Splash!
In this weather, the cold had not yet dissipated, and it was not hard to imagine what it was like to have cold water poured on you. Chu Xinian, who was lying on the ground like a corpse, opened his eyes in surprise and quickly straightened up.
What’s going on?
What’s going on!
Chu Xinian only remembered that he was on his way home from work at night, while driving, he lost control and crashed into the guardrail, and then his vision went dark and he lost consciousness.
Now that he had finally woken up, he felt a chill, not only a chill but also a headache. He had no time to worry about the unfamiliar surroundings and unconsciously raised his hand to touch his head, only to find that it was covered in blood, his eyes slowly widened.
“…”
Who hit him?
Seeing this, the sword-wielding servant next to him immediately knelt to plead guilty, “Madam, because Second Young Master got into a fight with us, the minion accidentally injured him by mistake. Please forgive me!”
Madam Quyang waved her hand, indicating not to bother with that, and then had the familiar punishment coldly implanted. Two servants with large waists held back Chu Xinian’s arms, while another stood behind with a stick, apparently ready to beat him.
Chu Xinian did not understand the situation, and struggled instinctively, “What are you doing?!”
In the eyes of others, this appearance is like pretending to be stupid.
Seeing this, Madam Quyang slapped the table with her left hand, and pointed at Chu Xinian with her right hand, “You bastard, you still don’t know how to repent after all this time!”
Her voice suddenly choked with tears.
“You scoundrel, you want your whole family to be buried with you! His Majesty bestowed this marriage between you and General Xie, how dare you run away on your wedding night!! Not to mention this, you even ran away with a courtesan, where do you put the face of our Quyang Manor?!”
The Quyang Manor looks powerful, but in reality, it had long been weak inside, and there was only one royal relative whose power was unstable, and at the same time, they had hardly any allies. No one in the Court can speak for them.
It was said that persimmons must be picked carefully, otherwise, how could this unfortunate marriage fall on their heads?
On his wedding night, Chu Xinian eloped with a courtesan, which was tantamount to jeopardizing the whole family. Faced with this incompetent son, Madam Quyang began to hold hatred for him at this time.
“Hit him! Hit him hard! Break his legs and let’s see how he keeps running!”
The servant executing the punishment was ordered to do so, and the board immediately fell on Chu Xinian’s butt. The board hit the flesh, causing him to break out in cold sweat.
Marquis Quyang did not dare to say anything from the beginning to the end.
Since he was young he has had a mild temperament, and now old was not much better. The hands in his sleeves twitched nervously, he seemed flustered, and said with a smile, “Madam, General Xie is not gracious and has a difficult temperament. Although Xi’er is guilty of running away, it is somewhat justifiable. It’s better… it’s better not to quarrel.”
After all, who would want to get married in the family of a disfigured Yama?
Chu Xinian was lying down dripping cold sweat, and hearing the words hurriedly nodded his head, “Quick… stop beating…”
His butt was about to rot.
Madam Quyang did not intend to be too ruthless and finally stopped the family punishment.
Chu Xinian only felt that his butt was sore and numb. He shuddered and was about to get up, but before he could stand up, he fainted again.
The servant hurried to hold him down, and unconsciously looked at Madam Quyang, wanting to say something, “Madam…”
Without her order, no one dares to rashly go for an Imperial Physician.
One didn’t know if they should say that Chu Xinian’s fate was good. The night before he fled, his Majesty and the Empress Dowager had gone to the sacred temple on Tianfeng Mountain outside the Capital to pay homage to Buddha, and they had not yet returned, so the news will not reach there for a while.
Quyang Manor quickly ordered someone to suppress the news, only saying that Chu Xinian had been accidentally kidnapped by criminals and had left the Capital. As much as people gossiped about the news privately, at least there was an excuse to cover up the embarrassment on the surface.
Marquis Quyang felt sorry for his son, “Ah, why are you still standing there, go find the Imperial Physician!”
Madam Quyang finally conceded, “Go find Dr. Wang.”
The steward hastened to reply, “I’ll be careful that no one sees us.”
“No.” Madam Quyang quickly turned the jade beads in her hands, they puckered slightly, “Prepare a generous gift for Dr. Wang, you must let people see, and the more the better, so that the outside world knows that Xi’er is seriously injured. If they ask, tell them he was held hostage by the criminals that day, understand?”
She was no stranger to rumors in the Capital that Chu Xinian was unwilling to marry Xie Jingyuan and fled with a courtesan. Now that he returned with serious injuries, she can dispel the rumors.
The steward hurriedly replied and left.
Chu Xinian had not yet completely fainted, he felt someone was lifting him and laying him on a bed, he slightly moved his fingertips, trying to open his eyes, but to no avail.
My head hurts…
My butt hurts too…
It was as if another memory that did not belong to him had been forced into his head, but it was fragmented and he could not reconstruct it.
What the hell is going on…?
The pain in Chu Xinian’s head was throbbing one after another as he lay on the bed, and as if something had triggered it, a cold voice suddenly rang out in his head.
[Ding! Congratulations, you have successfully linked the Villain Rescue System, initiating… ]
[Successful startup]
As soon as the voice dropped, a translucent light screen appeared in front of Chu Xinian filled with dense data written on it. The mechanical voice seemed to be reading a research report about him.
[Author’s name: Chu Xinian
Cause of death: A car accident.
Author’s work: “A Thousand Years of Feud,” etc.
The goal of this mission: Save the villain Xie Jingyuan from “A Thousand Years of Feud”.
The reward for the success of the mission: Get the chance to be reborn once.]
Perhaps the fright was too great, for Chu Xinian’s eyes snapped open at the words, and he sat up from the bed suddenly with a frown on his face, “Who’s speaking!”
A cold breeze blew in through the carved window opening, and the curtain hanging from the golden hook slid halfway down in silence. In the half-light, a large, very bright diamond suddenly emerged slowly in the air…
The other party said in a cute voice, [Dear Host, congratulations! You have successfully been bound to the Villain Rescue System! I’m happy to serve you~]
Chu Xinian, “…”
The author has something to say:
Chu Xinian: I want to say something, but I don’t know what to say, my heart is confused and my mind is confused too.
