The princess only wants to get rich and support her family

A basin of cold water was poured over his head, extinguishing half of Hu Luanfei's enthusiasm.

Fortunately, she was a cockroach who never gave up. She quickly cheered herself up and set off. What she had to do now was to find the natural enemy of the giant bottle snail.

The Chinese soft-shell turtle is a turtle that can be used to make soup. Generally, wild turtles hide on the north bank of the river, facing south and sheltered from the wind, in a place where fine sand and coarse sand are mixed.

We brought a cool little wild horse, hitched it to a cart, and took a few wooden barrels and some food. Everything was ready - let's set off!

"My lady, wait for me!"

Two voices sounded at the same time. Hu Luanfei turned around and saw Yansi and Wen Ruoxue trotting over, one holding a bucket and the other holding the hem of her skirt.

They came up to him and panted slightly, "Where you go, we go too."

The sun comes out in the west?

Hu Luanfei was completely confused, "I went there to catch turtles, not to play."

They both said in unison: "We know."

Yansi said, "My fields also need natural enemies of giant bottle snails. I can catch them myself and feel at ease."

"What about you?" He looked at Wen Ruoxue, "I remember your family doesn't farm."

Wen Ruoxue smiled shyly, "I just arrived, it's rare to have sisters of the same age..." Suddenly realizing something, she quickly and nervously changed her words: "I don't mean to call you sister, Madam. I just want to take this opportunity to learn more about Taohua Village and adapt to it sooner. I don't mean anything else."

Look at her expression. If I mind, she would kneel down and beg for forgiveness, right?

Hu Luanfei held her hand and comforted her: "Don't be shy when you come here. You don't have to follow the rules here. You can call me whatever you want, sister or sister-in-law, whatever you like."

She looked up in surprise, "You are different from what was rumored."

Hu Luanfei raised an eyebrow: "What about me as rumored?"

Wen Ruoxue said cautiously: "Everyone says you are a vicious person."

Yansi nodded in agreement, "I've heard from our man before that you bully the head of the family. You have a big quarrel every three days and a small quarrel every two days. You are very aggressive with knives and guns."

Hearing their comments face to face, Hu Luanfei unconsciously curled the corners of his mouth and could no longer smile.

"But..." Yansi was a little confused. She looked at Wen Ruoxue and asked puzzledly, "Why do you all call her Niangniang?"

Wen Ruoxue wanted to say something, but was stopped by Hu Luanfei, "Because I am older than them, they all like to address me as 'Niangniang'."

Yansi suddenly realized something and said "Oh~", then looked at the sky and said, "Let's go, it will be hard to find it if we are late."

"Yeah." Hu Luanfei and Wen Ruoxue smiled at each other.

The location for looking for Chinese soft-shelled turtle is in a river five miles away from Taohua Village, where there are many wild animals.

The cool little wild horse ran very fast and it only took about half an hour to cover the five miles.

The riverside is surrounded by picturesque mountains and clear water, and the scenery is pleasant. The cool breeze blows on her face, accompanied by the fragrance of flowers and the sunshine. Hu Luanfei looks around and tears fall inexplicably.

She felt so lonely.

It felt like I had come to a strange place in a different world and couldn't find anyone to talk to.

"My queen, you're crying." Wen Ruoxue came over with a bouquet of flowers, "Are you missing the prince?"

Hu Luanfei shook his head, "I miss home."

Her home is far away in time and space, and perhaps she will never be able to return there in this lifetime.

"I'm sorry, I don't know how to comfort you."

Hu Luanfei wiped away her tears and smiled, "It's okay, I'm used to it."

"what--!"

Accompanied by a sharp scream, the two turned their heads at the same time.

Yansi, with a pale face, stumbled towards them holding the child, crying as she ran: "There's a dead person!"

Hu Luanfei and Wen Ruoxue immediately ran over to support her and comfort her, "Where is the dead body?!"

She pointed to the small bamboo raft on the river bank and said tremblingly, "Under that one."

The atmosphere at this moment was very gloomy and quiet, and Hu Luanfei could not take his eyes away from the small bamboo raft.

She let go of Yansi's hand and said, "I'll go over and take a look."

Before she took a step, she was stopped by Wen Ruoxue, "Don't go, Madam."

But she was attracted by a strong feeling and rejected Wen Ruoxue's good intention, "Don't worry, I'll be back soon, you and Yansi go to the cool place over there for a while."

At this point, Hu Luanfei's heart tightened. It wasn't that she wasn't afraid, but she felt like she was being driven forward by something.

Just as they reached the river bank, the raft suddenly flipped over, revealing a dead body with a broken hand. It stared at her with its eyes open, and then moved towards the shore as if it could move.

Hu Luanfei covered his mouth in shock, and his face turned pale.

The face of the person with the festering face was vaguely visible, and she recognized that it was Jiang Huizhen!

The moment it saw her, the corpse seemed to have fulfilled its long-cherished wish. It could be heard faintly letting out a sigh of relief, and then blood began to flow from all its orifices, leaving it unrecognizable.

Hu Luanfei's body and mind trembled violently. He kept backing away, tears forced out of his eyes.

What happened to the Jiang family? Why did Jiang Huizhen die here?

She couldn't figure it out.

"Ma'am..."

"Don't come over!" Hu Luanfei immediately stopped Wen Ruoxue, "I'll bury her."

Although Jiang Huizhen had a grudge against him, all the grudges were wiped out when he saw her death.

When the body was being salvaged, there was an embroidered handkerchief with no visible writing floating on the river, and a hairpin firmly held in the bird's hand. The hairpin looked familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere, but I couldn't remember where for a moment.

Hu Luanfei and the other two gave her some respect. They dug a big hole and found a piece of wood to serve as a monument for it.

"My lady, isn't this Miss Jiang Huizhen from the Duke's Mansion? Look, she seems to have something hidden in her chest."

It is true that Wen Ruoxue is the one who is bold and careful. Although she used to be weak, she is not panicky when faced with difficulties.

She pulled it out and saw that it was a bright yellow imperial edict, folded neatly, but it had been soaked in water and almost nothing could be seen.

What can be vaguely seen are the words "enter the palace".

Wen Ruoxue guessed: "Maybe she didn't want to enter the palace and chose to jump into the river?"

"I don't think so." Hu Luanfei looked at the hairpin in his hand. It looked so familiar.

"Eh?" Wen Ruoxue snatched the hairpin and said in surprise, "This belongs to the Empress Dowager. I saw her wearing it at the Emperor's birthday banquet last time."

The Queen Mother's hairpin appeared in Jiang Shihui's hand, but Jiang Shihui was dead. Is this a conspiracy?

"My lady, bury the hairpin together. It's unlucky to hold it on your hands. It might bring you a lot of trouble."

Wen Ruoxue, who knew that there was a feud between the Duke's Mansion and the Prince Zhan's Mansion, urged them.

Hu Luanfei thought about it and didn't quite agree with her words, "I think it was arranged by fate that I could see Jiang Huizhen's body here today."

Wen Ruoxue was surprised and asked, "You don't want to redress her grievances?"

"Can't you?"

"Of course not. Have you forgotten Jiang Sansi's identity? He is an orphan of the previous dynasty. If you redress their grievances, won't you be grouped with them and sentenced to death?"
