Chapter 330 The Emperor Dies, and the New Emperor Is a Child
Shen Nanzhi destroyed the jade pendant that represented her identity, and thus destroyed her chance to reunite with her biological parents, but she did not hesitate or regret it at all.
She has lived a whole life in her previous life, so what has she not experienced?
Such a bloody recognition of relatives is not what she wants. Isn't it good to just farm, do some business, eat, drink and have fun with familiar relatives and friends and live a comfortable life?
If you feel bored, you can give birth to a few kids to play with. This will make up for the regret of not having children to take care of you in your previous life.
Even Imperial Envoy Zhou admired her open-mindedness. This was the character that a true descendant of Duke Shen should have, not those greedy and selfish people who would seek fame and fortune at the slightest opportunity and climb up the ladder only to fall even harder in the end.
The next day, Yang Lingyu came to see her off and told her what happened to his third brother and his wife.
"Yang Lingzhao was banished to the manor and will not come back unless something special happens. The Yang family does not have a son as vicious and stupid as him.
Lin was hanged, and there is no need to know what evidence she had against my third brother. This is not important. When a person dies, everything is gone.
Big brother still needs to take care of his health, I haven't thanked you for saving him yet."
Shen Nanzhi said: "I didn't save him. I don't have that much ability. Maybe your elder brother is in good health. Without those flowers and medicine, he recovered on his own."
Yang Lingyu laughed: "How many people want my Yang family to owe you a favor, but you are so good that you don't even want it when it's offered to you. This is a life-saving favor, I can repay it with my body."
"Who pledged himself to me? You?"
Shen Nanzhi raised an eyebrow and looked at him critically, "You are so unclean, I don't even want you for free."
"Why am I not clean?"
"You work in a brothel, how can you be clean?"
"I, I am innocent. I am just helping someone take care of it. It is not mine..."
Yang Lingyu couldn't continue, "I did a bad job in this matter. When I left, I owed someone a favor. I agreed to help them manage these businesses. After so many years, I should recognize my mistakes and repay them.
You are right. I am not clean in this situation either. I will cut it off, get out of it, and become a clean person. "
Shen Nanzhi seemed to be thinking about something. There were some things that he couldn't get out of just by wanting to. It wasn't that simple, after all, he knew such a big secret of someone else.
But it has nothing to do with her anymore. Yang Lingyu is not a fool. He knows what to do. "This is your business. You make your own decision. If you encounter any difficulties, you can come to me."
"I'm happy to hear you say that. I will definitely do that."
"Let's go, take care."
"You guys have a good trip too."
……
Shen Nanzhi did not stop along the way and returned home just in time not to delay Desheng's wedding.
When Ding Xiangrong came back from his trip this time, he had come to his senses and took the initiative to apologize to Shen Desheng. They had a drink together and they became good brothers again.
However, after all, there is a layer of separation between him and the Shen family. Ding Xiangrong plans to start his own business after the New Year, wholesale some specialty products from Shen Nanzhi, and sell them himself.
He had saved up thousands of taels of silver, which was enough capital. He also had a group of brothers to help him. With money and connections, he dared to go out and try his luck.
Mayor Ding was so happy that he burst into tears when he received the cotton-padded jacket from his son. His son finally grew up, and it was all thanks to Shen Nanzhi. He gave Shen Nanzhi a generous gift to express his gratitude.
Shen Nanzhi found Ding Xiangrong's speechless look funny. He gave things to him as a filial gift, and the credit belonged to him. How could he not be depressed?
The wedding went smoothly and was lively. All the people from Yushu Village came to help. The banquet lasted for three days and the whole village came to eat. It was a huge project.
All five pigs in Shen Nanzhi's space were used. There was no shortage of food in the village, and mushrooms and vegetables were sent by the villagers voluntarily. The feast was very sumptuous.
After the lively wedding, Ding Xiangrong and the others were about to leave. He remembered something, "Sister Nanzhi, what are you going to do with Chen Douzi? He sold his body to us, and it's not a good idea to keep him tied up all the time."
"As for him, I have made arrangements. Just send him to my house and don't worry about it."
"Okay, a child this young can lie, what will happen to him when he grows up?"
"How do you know he's not an adult?"
"Ah, what do you mean?"
"It means literally that no matter how smart a child is, he can't be this good. He probably took some kind of drug, or maybe he was born like this. In any case, he is not a normal person."
Ding Xiangrong said: "Why don't we just kill him? It sounds creepy."
"You still want to kill someone even though he's in such a miserable state. Do you have a clear conscience?"
"We didn't cause him to be like this. He wanted to kill us. We killed him because we were forced to fight back. What is there to feel guilty about?
The sooner he dies, the sooner he will be reborn. It would be good for him if we send him to be reborn."
Shen Nanzhi was speechless, it seemed to make sense.
"Get lost. You've led me into a ditch. I have my own ideas."
It had been more than ten days since Chen Douzi saw Shen Nanzhi again. He was immediately excited. "What do you want? If you want to kill me, just cut me up. Don't torture me like this."
"Oh, so I am so vicious in your heart, do you want me to kill you or shave you?"
Chen Douzi's eyes turned red with anger. He turned his head away and didn't want to look at her. No matter how he answered, he would die. This person was so cruel, and she was a woman.
Shen Nanzhi let him go, "Would you like to drink?"
"You let a child drink? What's your intention?"
"Are you sure you don't want to drink?"
"Drink."
Once you drink some wine, a plate of pork head, boiled peanuts, cold cucumber salad, and a plate of preserved eggs will be a great side dish.
Chen Douzi took a sip of wine and grinned: "This wine is strong, stronger than the wine I drank before. The pig head is also delicious. How is it made? If this restaurant opens, it will definitely be a hit."
"Look at yourself, you are a real idiot. How can you be innocent like a child? Do you want to confess yourself or let me force you to say it?"
Chen Liren sighed, "You can see it all. It's useless for me to pretend. In fact, I am already eighteen years old, but my body can only grow this big. It won't be more than ten years old.
What we were doing was killing people, and the child's size allowed me to paralyze the target better and make him let down his guard. When I went on a mission with my partner, we never failed.
It's a pity that I met you. How did you find the flaw? "
Shen Nanzhi did not hide it from him, "I have also raised children. They may be smart and vicious, but their eyes cannot be hidden. They are not as perfect as you.
Of course, maybe it's intuition, plus your companion's flaws, you can guess it."
"His flaw?"
"Yes, the person is dead, but he is still covered with a quilt, tightly wrapped. Aren't you afraid that the corpse will be worried? He is faking his death. I get goose bumps when I pull off the quilt. This is uncontrollable. No matter how powerful the killer is, he can't fake it."
"You are awesome. I am convinced. Let's drink. Maybe after this drink, I will have to go and accompany my partner."
"Your body is poisoned? Will you die without an antidote?"
"how do you know?"
"Because this is what I want to do to you. I want to use you to do things for me, but I am worried, so I got poison. Only I can detoxify it."
Chen Douzi wanted to cry: "I've been poisoned, and you do it again? Can I still survive?"
"I don't know about that either, but I might be able to help you get rid of the poison in your body, and then I'll give you my poison, so you should be prepared."
Chen Douzi: “…”
Life is so hard.
“But there are benefits to you following me. I won’t give you those kind of weight-control drugs. Maybe you can grow up and become a normal man.
I thought you were a grown man in your twenties or thirties, and you should be fine at only eighteen."
"Do you think a killer can live to that age? Eighteen years old is already a veteran, able to go on missions alone. Forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you."
"Who is your master? I met a group of killers before. Are you accomplices?"
"I can't tell you this. It's for your own good. If you know it, you will die."
"Are you unhappy that I'm dead?"
Chen Douzi ate meat and drank wine again, feeling quite satisfied. "Miss Shen, we assassins are the best at judging people. You are not as cruel as my former master. You are just pretending to be fierce. I don't hate you. You are not as skilled as him. You deserve to die."
Shen Nanzhi didn't say much. After Chen Douzi finished drinking, he fell directly on the table and fainted. She threw him into the space and locked him in a small room alone to prevent him from waking up and walking around.
This space has the ability to heal animals, and Shen Nanzhi wants to see to what extent it can heal.
This will give you an extra layer of protection in the future.
If you often walk by the river, you will get your feet wet. If you get injured or poisoned, you can recover by entering the space.
If the poison in Chen Douzi's body can be removed, will he be immune to all poisons?
Shen Nanzhi is doing an experiment with Chen Douzi, and he is acting as a guinea pig.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and Shen Nanzhi is also preparing for the New Year, buying new clothes and new jewelry. Counting the days, she realized that she has only been here for a year, but a lot of things have happened and many people have changed.
Especially losing weight, which is her biggest change.
During this period, another major event happened. The emperor passed away, and the crown prince succeeded to the throne. The emperor's younger brother became the regent and took charge of the government, because the crown prince was still young, only eight years old, and was still a child.
Shen Qingshan heard all these things when he went to the county town to buy New Year's goods. It had nothing to do with them. At most, they couldn't hold any wedding ceremonies for a month.
No matter who is the emperor, the lives of ordinary people like them will still be the same.
When Shen Nanzhi heard the news, he intuitively felt that it was related to Shen Huai'en. He left in a hurry, perhaps because the emperor was seriously ill, and when the regime changed, he would have to go back to seize power.
Who is this person? Could he be the regent?
Shen Nanzhi was a little bit unconvinced. How could the Regent be as young as him?
Up to now, no letter has come back, and no explanation has been given. Shen Nanzhi doesn't have enough clues, and has to rely on his own guesses. The more he thinks about it, the more annoyed he becomes. So he simply stops thinking about it and lets things take their own course.
However, Chen Douzi had a new change, which gave Shen Nanzhi an unexpected surprise.
