Don't be a salted fish, the daily life of the concubine in the palace
Chapter 386 Is She Alive or Dead?
She is used to a life of ups and downs and likes exciting and challenging days.
Deep down in her heart, she simply couldn't accept that her fate was being manipulated by others, and lying down and doing nothing would only make her anxious.
Shen Wei got out of bed, opened the fish skin curtain and walked out. Just after taking two steps, the dark-skinned young man appeared out of nowhere, hugged Shen Wei's waist tightly with his two skinny arms, and cried: "Sister! You can't go to the Prince of Wu's Mansion, wuwuwu, you will be beaten to death by His Royal Highness the Prince of Wu."
Shen Wei: ...
Shen Wei touched the boy's head and said, "Let go."
The dark-skinned boy trembled all over, and held on tighter: "No, I won't let go. Sister, you can beat me to death, but I won't let go. Wuuuuu..."
The child was crying so hard that tears and snot appeared on the corners of Shen Wei's clothes.
Shen Wei calmed down and comforted him: "I'm not going to look for King Wu. Come with me into the house. I have something to ask you."
The dark-skinned boy was skeptical.
The brother and sister entered the house.
The room was small, with only a bed, a small cabinet, and no extra benches. Shen Wei sat on the edge of the bed, while the dark-skinned boy shrank his neck and stood obediently.
His dark eyes swept over the elder sister sitting on the edge of the bed, and he suddenly felt a little scared. The elder sister was still the elder sister, but when she sat on the edge of the bed and her clear eyes swept over him, he actually had the urge to kneel down and kowtow to her.
It's just so weird.
Shen Wei knocked on the edge of the bed: "I have been unconscious for too long, my mind is confused. Let me ask you, which country is this and who am I?"
Shen Wei's tone was intimidating without her being angry. The dark-skinned boy had always been afraid of this sister, so he opened his mouth and told her everything truthfully.
After asking for most of an hour, Shen Wei had a general understanding of her situation.
She lived in a poor village called Wu County, on the edge of the border of Donglin State.
The original owner of this body was named Yuan Xier, a fisherman's daughter from Yuanjia Fishing Village in Wu County. Yuan Xier was born beautiful and was loved by her parents when she was young. She gradually developed a lofty character and wanted to marry the prince of Donglin.
Three years ago, Yuan Xier's parents went out to sea to fish and both died in a shipwreck. Yuan Xier and her younger brother Yuan Fu were the only ones left at home.
Yuan Xier was lazy and gluttonous since she was young. She was not sad when her parents passed away and she did not want to shoulder the burden of the family. She just wanted to marry a rich man. Her younger brother Yuan Fu was forced to cook and wash for her sister at a young age. He also had to go to the beach every day to collect shellfish and fish for money.
Last year, Emperor Donglin's fortieth son, Zhao Ziqi, came of age. According to the rules of Donglin Kingdom, adult princes must return to their fiefdoms and become self-reliant.
Unfortunately, Zhao Ziqi's mother was a pearl diver and his elder sister Princess Zhenmin married to the Kingdom of Qing a few years ago, so he was never valued by the Emperor of Donglin. The Emperor of Donglin gave the most barren Wu County to Zhao Ziqi and named him the King of Wu.
After the King of Wu arrived in Wu County, he did not exploit the people like other princes did. He occasionally reduced or exempted taxes, and the people of Wu County actually lived quite well.
Although the King of Wu was young, he had a great ambition - he wanted to marry the "most beautiful woman in the world", Princess Wei, and sent people to search for beautiful women. Yuan Xier, a fisherman's daughter, learned about this and felt that her chance to marry a rich and powerful man had come.
Even the least favored prince in the royal family is still a high and mighty treasure in the eyes of ordinary people.
Yuan Xier boasted of her beauty and deliberately went to the King of Wu to recommend herself. After being ridiculed by the King of Wu, Yuan Xier was so upset that she threw herself into the sea. After her death, her soul was scattered and Shen Wei happened to be in her body.
"King Wu...Princess Donglin's younger brother." Shen Wei rubbed her eyebrows. What a coincidence.
Many years ago, Donglin sent a princess to marry. After Shen Wei's secret operation, Princess Donglin married Yan Yunting, the Minister of Rites. Later, Yan Yunting became depressed because of Tan Tairou's affairs, made many mistakes in his work, and was given a sinecure.
Princess Donglin took the opportunity to seize power in the Yan family, and cleverly followed Shen Wei to do business, making a lot of money and living a rich and happy life.
Shen Wei pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked her brother Yuanfu: "Is Queen Mother Shen of Qing Kingdom dead?"
Yuan Fu looked confused and said, "The Queen Mother of Qing... Sister, I don't know the Queen Mother of Qing."
The remote fishing village is isolated from the world and the people there only think about having enough food to eat, having no idea about the ups and downs of the outside world.
Shen Wei pressed her brows. She had to first confirm whether "Empress Dowager Shen of Qing" was dead or not.
If "Queen Mother Shen of Qing" is dead, then her soul may be immortal, constantly circulating in the world;
If "Queen Mother Shen of Qing" was not dead, things would become interesting, because it means that her "time travel" might have been secretly manipulated by someone.
"I hope the 'me' in Qing is still alive, so I still have a chance to go back... Li Yuanjing is not stupid and will find out that I'm missing." Shen Wei still wants to return to her original body and enjoy her wonderful retirement life.
"Sister, drink the medicine." Yuanfu timidly brought the shell bowl over.
Shen Wei took a sip, and the smell of medicine rushed straight to her head. It was bitter, sour and smelly. She probably thought it was the medicine prescribed by the village doctor.
Shen Wei couldn't drink any more. She put the shell bowl aside and asked her brother casually, "You don't know the Queen Mother of Qing, but have you heard of anyone from Qing?"
Yuan Fu scratched his head, and suddenly his face was filled with resentment: "Shen Xiuming! Shen Xiuming, the cancer of Daqing! He is a heinous criminal, a living evil ghost! God of the sea, please let him never get married! Humph!"
Shen Wei almost spit out a mouthful of bitter medicine.
The people of Donglin do not know the Queen Mother of Qing, Shen, but instead know the civil official Shen Xiuming of Qing?
Still saying Shen Xiuming is a cancer?
Shen Wei wondered: "What immoral thing did he do?"
Yuan Fu was indignant and clenched his fists: "He built a dam upstream to block the river water from irrigating the farmland. How bad!"
Shen Wei opened her mouth, unable to defend herself.
For the people of Qing State, building a dam upstream of Donglin State stabilized the border situation between the two countries, blocked the military conspiracy between Donglin and Nanchu, and brought peace to the border.
For the people of Donglin State, the construction of the dam upstream has destroyed the people's livelihood and water and soil, and destroyed their livelihood.
A speck of dust in the history books is like a heavy mountain pressing down on the common people.
It's hard to tell right from wrong.
...
Shen Wei temporarily stayed in Yuanjia Fishing Village.
They come, the security.
Shen Wei planned to take care of her body first. She was too weak, thin, dry and malnourished. Only her face was barely pretty. It was understandable that the King of Wu looked down on her.
After she recovers, she will find a way to return to Qing Kingdom and return to her original body.
"Sister, do you really want to go fishing with me?" As dusk approached, Yuan Fu looked at Shen Wei holding a basket and could not believe his eyes.
The lazy and gluttonous sister is actually going to start fishing!
Shen Wei picked up an oyster with a pair of tongs: "It never hurts to learn more. Can you teach me how to identify which seafood is edible?"
Yuanfu couldn't believe it, and told Shen Wei some sea-hunting techniques and details with a trembling voice.
After the tide receded at dusk, there were many fishermen on the beach. Under Yuanfu's guidance, Shen Wei quickly picked up half a basket of seafood.
At this time, there was a noise from the other side of the beach. Shen Wei vaguely heard someone shouting——
"The King of Wu is here."
