After the vicious adoptive mother gave up, the scumbag children regretted it
Chapter 443: I have to finish my own character even if I have to kneel down
Rumor has it that Fuzhou is poor and that it is just a small fishing village. People there make their living from the sea and do not produce grain or cotton. Life is very hard for them, but no one expected it to be so poor.
If the prince and the young ladies are so miserable, how are ordinary people supposed to survive?
When Shen Nanzhi got the news, he was so angry that he laughed. Did this old fox really think that everyone in the capital was a fool?
The Crown Prince of Han was named Qi Jiayan. The two young ladies who accompanied him were his sisters, one was called Qi Jiayu and the other was called Qi Jiashan. They were both thirteen or fourteen years old and as beautiful as young green onions.
However, the two young ladies looked arrogant and impatient. The long journey had made them regret countless times. Even the prosperity of the capital city could not arouse their interest.
Qi Jiayan was very polite, gentle and refined. He looked like a well-educated young man. He greeted Shen Nanzhi first: "I wonder when the Regent Princess is free? We would like to pay a visit to her. What is it... As you all know, according to seniority, we are cousins."
The Minister of Rites said, "The princess has already told the prince and the young ladies to rest first. I will naturally summon you later when I have time."
Qi Jiashan said unhappily, "Shouldn't she take us to live in the palace? We are not outsiders, where should she put us? She is really putting on airs. Let's go directly to the Regent's Palace."
The Minister of Rites was in a dilemma because the princess had not given any instructions.
A subordinate came over and whispered something. The Minister of Rites looked strange and said, "In that case, I will send you to the Regent's Palace. Let's go."
So the people of the capital saw a tattered team walking into the street, and they all pointed and talked at them as if they were a foreign spectacle.
Even though Qi Jiashan and Qi Jiayu stayed in the car, they could see the people's expressions as if they were looking at monkeys through the torn curtains, and they felt extremely embarrassed.
"If I had known this, I shouldn't have come. My elder sister is smart. She said she didn't want to come to the capital. I have all kinds of treasures at home. Why would I want something from the capital?"
"Yes, many of the goods in the capital are leftovers from our place. My skin has become rough from all this travel."
"Grandfather wants us to marry into his family, but I don't want to."
Qi Jiayu's eyes turned and said, "I heard that the Regent is brave and powerful, holds great power, and is a rare handsome man in the world. I wonder if we can have a chance to meet him?"
"Don't dream. No matter how powerful he is, he still has to go to the battlefield. He might die on the battlefield someday. Our cheap sister is also stupid. She got married before going to the war. Isn't she going to be a widow this time?"
"that's true."
The conversation between the two was overheard by the secret agents of the Imperial City Bureau who were monitoring nearby. They were extremely furious. How could a young lady from Prince Han's mansion be so vicious that she dared to curse the prince to die in battle?
How vicious! How did Prince Han educate his young daughter?
They wanted to teach them a lesson and see if so many people would not act impulsively, but they sent someone to tell Shen Nanzhi as quickly as possible.
They also knew the princess' temper. Not to mention that she was vindictive, anyone who offended her would have a bad ending.
After hearing the report, Shen Nanzhi was speechless. It seemed that King Han was indeed very ambitious and even looked down on the prosperity of the capital. This showed how wealthy Fuzhou was.
"Are you all ready? Treat the guests well."
"Okay, we servants will not reveal our true colors. It's not good to pretend to be rich. Being poor is natural. Who didn't grow up in misery? We will act as ourselves and ensure authenticity."
"There's no need to go too far. Just give them a small lesson. We can't let them get away. Keep a close eye on them."
"Yes, don't worry, Princess. We have many servants in our house, and we guarantee that not even a fly can fly out."
Shen Nanzhi gave enough face to the Han Wangfu and others, and personally waited at the gate to receive them. This was the first time they had received such treatment.
The Minister of Rites led the people to the gate of the palace, but left quickly without even going in. This was the princess' order. The Minister of Rites was also a shrewd man. If a fight broke out, it would be better to stay away. It would be disgusting to be splattered with blood.
What if a brick, shoe or something flies at you? Wouldn't that be even more unfair?
"Why are they gone?"
"The Princess Regent is entertaining us. The Ministry of Rites has finished its work. It's alright."
Shen Nanzhi came out, wearing a gray linen dress, like an ordinary peasant woman. Even her hair was wrapped in cloth, making it look even grayer.
Qi Jiayan: “…”
Could this be the servant who cleans the palace?
But she has a calm temperament, is intimidating without being angry, and has bright eyes. She doesn't look like a servant at all.
"Are you the prince of the Han Palace, young lady? You have come from afar, thank you for your hard work, please come in."
Qi Jiashan and Qi Jiayu can no longer speak, their brains are confused. What is going on?
The two groups seemed to be competing to see how miserable they were. They were almost fleeing from famine. The occasional civilian passing by was so surprised that their mouths could be stuffed with eggs. What was the Regent Princess doing?
The rich people nowadays are having so much fun and have too many good days. Do you want to try what it’s like to be poor?
"Are you the Princess Regent?"
"Yes, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but the Regent is fighting a war, the treasury is empty, and it's hard to get food and grass. I really can't bear to see him suffer on the front line.
For the sake of my prince, our entire Regent's Palace must be frugal and save money to support the soldiers on the border.
We can't let them fight the enemy desperately and not have enough food to eat, right?
You people in Fuzhou are also poor, so you must be able to get used to this kind of life. Just think of it as going home, come in quickly."
Prince Han and his companions were settled in the inner courtyard of the palace. The courtyard was quite large, and the decoration was simple and elegant, with the atmosphere of a prince's palace. However, it looked like it had not been repaired for a long time. The paint on the pillars had peeled off and there was no repair, so it looked very shabby.
"Excuse me, the craftsmen in the Ministry of Revenue have to rush to make military equipment. Everything is based on the war. At least we live a stable life and don't have to worry about dying in the war. It doesn't matter if we are a little poor."
The tea was foamy and the three precious masters almost spit it out after taking a sip. Is this tea?
"Are you not used to it? You will get used to it slowly. This is the last bit of tea left in my house. In fact, drinking boiled water is the best way to quench your thirst. Tea leaves are very particular. When I was a child, I grew up in the countryside and I could drink some tea leaves.
It's a pity that it's not spring now. I can get you some mulberry buds. They are good stuff. Drinking water soaked in them is good for your health."
Qi Jiayan laughed dryly: "I didn't expect that you, Princess, are so frugal. I admire you. Since the palace is not well-off, why don't we go back home and live there?"
"Home? Isn't your home in Fuzhou? The King of Han has been gone for so many years, there is no King of Han's Palace in the capital anymore."
Qi Jiayu couldn't help but said, "You are the regent princess now, isn't it just a matter of words to grant us a palace?
Don't forget, you also came from the Han Palace. If we are well, we can also help you."
Shen Nanzhi smiled and said, "Miss Jiayu is right. Let me help you first and give you a few hundred thousand taels of silver to spend."
Qi Jiayu: "We in Fuzhou are so poor and we still rely on the imperial court for aid. Where can we get the money to give you?"
"The court has no money either, and they are at war. Forget it. It's all just tears. You have to survive even if you don't have money. From now on, you will live in the Regent's Palace. I will give you a steamed bun, and I will never let you eat steamed corn bread."
Qi Jiayan opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Shen Nanzhi stood up and said, "I still have official business to attend to, so I won't accompany you. If you need anything, just tell the servants. Don't be polite. I don't treat you as outsiders, so you don't have to be polite to me.
Stay and have a good rest. Look at the faces of the sisters. They are all dry and pale. It really makes me feel distressed!"
Qi Jiayu and Qi Jiashan quickly touched their faces and found that they were indeed dry. The premium ointment they brought had run out on the way. What should they do?
Shen Nanzhi had already left, leaving them looking at each other in bewilderment. This was not what they had expected.
"Rest first and settle down first."
After that, there were shouting and cursing in the yard. The bed was made of straw and there was not even a bed curtain. How could anyone sleep like that?
No matter how they shouted, the servants of the Prince Regent's Palace said, "Aren't you people in Fuzhou very poor? Your clothes are not much better than ours. How come you can't sleep?"
Since you have created a character that is so poor that you cannot even afford to eat, Shen Nanzhi will let them experience what it is like to live in real poverty.
The acting is not even realistic. The patched clothes are actually made of high-quality Hangzhou silk. How is this different from a farmer working with a golden hoe?
Not to mention the food, which included brown rice, boiled cabbage and tofu, cold wild vegetables, and aged pickled cabbage. The three young masters of the Prince of Han's mansion were all stunned, as the servants in their mansion ate better than this.
"What on earth does she mean?"
After taking a bite, Qi Jiayu spat it out. Qi Jiayan's face was gloomy: "What else can it mean? You have seen through our tricks. This is just a show of force."
Qi Jiashan sneered: "She wants to intimidate us, but we can't just let her do that. Let's do this."
The other two nodded, "Jiashan, you are smart. No wonder grandfather asked you to come."
Qi Jiayan sent a message to Shen Nanzhi, "We want to invite the princess to have a meal together. Please go and invite the princess to come. We will wait for her to eat together."
An Xin looked at him deeply, bowed and stepped back, and went to report to Shen Nanzhi, telling him everything they had talked about.
Shen Nanzhi shrugged: "You are still smart. I will go to accompany you. You are still not hungry enough. In the countryside, if you can eat such a meal, it is a good day."
They grew up in luxury, but Shen Nanzhi was not. She had truly experienced hardship.
When she arrived, the three of them showed expressions of watching a good show, "Princess, we are very grateful for your hospitality, let's eat together."
"it is good."
Shen Nanzhi did not refuse and sat down to eat slowly. In fact, brown rice is a mixture of black rice, purple rice and sorghum rice, and it tastes really good.
In the previous life, we ate coarse grains, and this kind of original grain is more expensive.
Boiled cabbage with lard is not that bad. It is a favorite of people who are losing weight. The old pickled cabbage can be seasoned with sesame oil and vinegar, which is the best match for porridge.
Shen Nanzhi would not waste food, and these meals were all carefully prepared.
She ate up all the food directly, which stunned the three people. They were also a little impressed. She had established a character that she would finish even if she had to kneel. She was the real ruthless person.
"Sorry, I'm done eating."
"Ah, it's okay, as long as you are full, we are not hungry either."
"Eat whenever you're hungry. Anything else?"
"No, no more."
