Don't be a salted fish, the daily life of the concubine in the palace

Li Yuanli walked into the hall.

Shen Wei looked up at him, ignored him, and continued to enjoy her dinner. Li Yuanli was not annoyed, and sat opposite Shen Wei and started to eat dinner.

Shen Wei was full and felt uncomfortable in her stomach, so she walked to the yard as usual to digest the food. The winter in Nanchu was not that cold. The flowers and plants that had just been planted in the yard had a fresh fragrance, and the soft moonlight illuminated Changle Palace.

Shen Wei was in a trance and thought she was back in the Daqing Palace.

She sighed silently. After twenty years of hard work, she finally escaped from the deep walls that trapped her, but in the end, it seemed that she was living a repetitive life again. She was really annoyed.

"Did you often take walks under the moon with Li Yuanjing in the past?" Li Yuanli came over and walked beside Shen Wei.

Shen Wei rolled her eyes at him and wanted to stab Li Yuanli to death with a knife.

Shen Wei really couldn't figure out when Li Yuanli fell in love with her. She and Li Yuanli had met only a few times and had not spoken much.

But he just happened to be spotted.

Incredible.

Shen Wei wanted to leave in anger, but Li Yuanli grabbed her arm. Li Yuanli's face darkened. He didn't like Shen Wei's cold attitude: "You have been acting for many years beside Li Yuanjing, why don't you act in front of me?"

Shen Wei asked him back: "Do you really want me to act with you?"

The moonlight in the yard was bright, making Shen Wei's eyes look particularly bright. Li Yuanli thought that if he hadn't seen Shen Wei's true face of snobbery, selfishness, coldness and hypocrisy, he might have liked Shen Wei's hypocrisy.

But he just happened to see Shen Wei's extraordinaryness through her skin.

If Shen Wei really obeyed him in everything and took the initiative to throw herself into his arms, Li Yuanli would be disappointed.

Li Yuanli let go of her wrist. He still liked Shen Wei's true appearance more.

Li Yuanli said to Shen Wei: "Shen Wei, my second brother and I are different. He likes your deliberate gentleness and virtue. But I only like your soul. I am willing to give you the best in the world. I can give you the only love."

"You can be yourself by my side without having to go against your nature."

He spoke with great sincerity.

Li Yuanli was able to disband the harem and only favor Shen Wei.

Unfortunately, Shen Wei didn't believe a word of it. She was cold-hearted and wary of everyone.

As the night wind blew, Shen Wei calmly told Li Yuanli: "I don't want love, I just want freedom and wealth."

Li Yuanli was silent.

Shen Wei finished her walk and returned to the bedroom to rest. She was worried that Li Yuanli would force himself on her, so she waited and waited but heard no noise outside.

Li Yuanli did not enter the house.

As the night deepened, Shen Wei's fragile body could no longer resist the sleepiness, so she fell on the bed and quickly fell asleep.

The palace lanterns in the room gradually dimmed, and Li Yuanli pushed the door open and stepped in. He lit the lamp, and the gentle light illuminated the sleeping Shen Wei. She slept soundly, with steady breathing.

Li Yuanli was like a wild beast lurking in the darkness, his black eyes fixed on his long-awaited prey.

It feels so good to have Shen Wei.

Li Yuanli looked at it for a long time.

It wasn't until there was a noise outside that Li Yuanli withdrew his greedy gaze. He glanced at Shen Wei's sleeping face and said slowly, "If you want freedom, I can abandon my kingdom and travel around the world with you."

Shen Wei is still sleeping.

Li Yuanli went out with a lantern.

At the gate of Changle Palace, the chief eunuch bowed his head and told Li Yuanli respectfully: "Your Majesty, the letter from the new emperor of Qing Kingdom has arrived. In addition, the spies reported that Liangzhou sent troops southward, and it seems that they are planning to send reinforcements to the border of Southern Chu."

Li Yuanli raised his eyebrows slightly and sneered: "Burn the letter from the emperor."

The chief eunuch said: "Then...what about the border?"

Li Yuanli sneered: "We in Nanchu are not pushovers. If Daqing wants to fight, then let's fight."

No matter what, he would not hand Shen Wei over.

...

In the bedroom of Changle Palace, Shen Wei, who was pretending to be asleep, slowly opened her eyes when she heard the footsteps gradually fading away.

She took out the dagger hidden in her sleeve and pressed it under the pillow.

"It never ends." Shen Wei murmured.

Shen Wei lay on the bed and began to analyze the situation shrewdly.

In fact, from an objective point of view, Li Yuanli's "true love" is rare. If she takes root in Nanchu, she can show her true nature, get money and power effortlessly, and even get limited freedom.

It’s a pity that Shen Wei couldn’t let go of the career she had worked so hard for in Qing Kingdom.

Shen Wei turned over and fell asleep this time.

Qing Kingdom, Yanjing City.

The King of Wu came to the legendary imperial city of Qing State for the first time. He offered tribute tremblingly and tactfully asked to reduce the amount of tribute from Donglin State in the next year.

For a small country like yours, making such a rebellious request is like walking on the edge of a knife.

But unexpectedly, the new emperor of Qing Kingdom did not punish him. He was so busy dealing with state affairs that he did not even have time to meet the King of Wu. He only asked the Ministry of Rites to accept the tribute from Donglin Kingdom.

The King of Wu waited for several days, but his head was still hanging on his neck. He felt incredible.

Is the new emperor of Qing so easy to talk to?

The King of Wu heaved a sigh of relief, but he also felt a little sad. He had been frightened for days because of a small matter, but the Emperor of Qing didn't take him seriously at all.

The bitterness of a small country is disappointing.

The King of Wu was in no hurry to return home.

He temporarily stayed at the Donglin Embassy in Yanjing City, and when he had nothing to do, he went to the streets to look for the most beautiful woman in Qing Kingdom.

As the imperial capital of a great country, Yanjing City is a place of abundant natural resources and outstanding people. The people are wealthy, the order is well-organized, and the folk customs are open. Many beautiful girls of all shapes and sizes can be seen on the streets.

King Wu waved his fan, sat upright in the restaurant, and leaned on the railing to observe the girls from Qing on the street. He was dazzled: "As expected of Daqing, the girls are all very pretty, much prettier than our Donglin girls."

There are many pretty girls.

But after looking at them, the King of Wu couldn't tell which one was the most beautiful. He couldn't help but think of the abducted Yuan Xier, who had a dark complexion and a barely pretty appearance.

But for some reason, Yuan Xier is more attractive than the beautiful girls on the street.

The King of Wu knocked his head hard and cursed himself: "I have stayed in Wu County for too long, and my brain is broken. Don't think about Yuan Xier anymore!"

In order to divert attention, he found the waiter of the restaurant and stuffed a copper coin into his hand: "Waiter, who is the most beautiful woman in Yanjing City? Is she married?"

The waiter glanced at the shabby-looking foreign guest, who had a typical playboy look and a vulgar expression on his face.

The waiter thought he was a lecher.

The waiter handed the old copper coin back indignantly: "The laws in Daqing are strict, so this gentleman should not act rashly."

After that, he turned around and left.

The King of Wu was dumbfounded. He was the 40th prince of the East Lin Kingdom, but he was looked down upon by a waiter? The King of Wu was so angry that he kept fanning himself. Just as he was about to reveal his identity, his fanning hand suddenly stopped.

"This silhouette! This back view is so beautiful!" King Wu's eyes sparkled. He saw a gorgeous carriage passing by on the street. The breeze blew, and the curtains were lifted, revealing the slender shoulders of a woman.
