In the backlight, the face gradually became clear.
Shen Wei recognized that this was Li Yuanli, the Emperor of Southern Chu.
She was extremely surprised.
On the banks of the Mingyuan River, the blood-red flags of Southern Chu fluttered. Shen Wei stood up slowly, with the cold river water still flowing between her fingers. After seeing Li Yuanli, the mystery that had troubled Shen Wei for several days was solved.
She instantly understood that she had inexplicably changed her body, all thanks to Li Yuanli. This person secretly played a big game, causing Shen Wei to lose her wonderful retirement life and fall into a fishing village in Donglin Country.
"I hope you are well." Li Yuanli gave her a very faint smile, and his delicate eyes locked onto Shen Wei's face.
Shen Wei's face darkened.
At this time, footsteps were heard from the pavilion by the river, and Yuanfu ran over in a hurry: "Sister! Sister!"
Yuanfu's face turned pale with fright.
He had just fetched some water and wanted to make medicine for his sister to cure her cold. Who knew that just as the fire was lit, there was suddenly a dense sound of cavalry from the riverside, and a group of terrifying black-armored knights appeared, like heavenly soldiers descending.
Yuanfu was trembling with fear.
He thought a war was about to start, so he ran over to find Shen Wei, wanting to take his sister out of this dangerous place.
Before Yuan Fu could run to Shen Wei, he was caught by the armored knight. The King of Wu looked pale. He stepped forward tremblingly and bowed to Li Yuanli: "My lord, I am the King of Wu in the east, and I am here to escort the tribute. Can you spare my concubine and brother-in-law for my sake?"
The King of Wu had never met Li Yuanli.
Little did I know that the imposing man in front of me was the famous Emperor of Southern Chu.
Li Yuanli raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes falling on Shen Wei's dark and thin face. He was not surprised, Shen Wei always had the ability to survive in desperate situations, no matter how dark the situation was, she could always find a way to survive.
Li Yuanli said: "Concubine...it's been less than two months, and you are quite capable."
The voice contained teasing and murderous intent.
Shen Wei thought about her situation. Located at the junction of three kingdoms, before Li Yuanjing could find her, Li Yuanli had already got there first. Surrounded by brave and skilled Nanchu knights, Shen Wei couldn't escape even if she grew wings.
She said calmly, "Let them go. If you have any grudges, just come to me."
The King of Wu was shocked when he heard this.
Could it be that Yuan Xier, the fisherman's daughter, really has an extraordinary life story? Could it be that the divination of the Yue State’s imperial master was true?
Shen Wei continued, "Shen Xiuming is in Minzhou, and he has brought elite guards. If you kill the prince of Donglin here, perhaps Donglin and Qingguo will unite to deal with Nanchu."
Li Yuanli's eyes were half-closed.
King Wu rolled his eyes, and immediately raised his voice, speaking with the courage of his ancestors: "Although Donglin is a small country, it has backbone! I am the favorite son of my father. If I die, Donglin will not let Nanchu go."
Li Yuanli sneered.
He traveled thousands of miles to find Shen Wei, just wanting to bring her back to Nanchu. As for the small fish and shrimps surrounding her, Li Yuanli was not interested.
He extended his hand to Shen Wei: "Follow me."
Shen Wei didn't respond.
A military carriage from Nanchu appeared by the river. The palace servants lowered their heads and respectfully lifted the gorgeous curtains.
Chen Wei glanced at Li Yuanli and told him, "Thanks to you, I am so weak and have not recovered from the cold. Please ask the imperial physician to prescribe a prescription and boil the medicine and bring it to me on time every day. The future is long and I don't want to die of illness on the way."
The interest and excitement in Li Yuanli's eyes grew stronger and stronger. Even if Shen Wei had a different appearance, her familiar tone and calm demeanor could always easily stir his heartstrings.
He nodded: "Okay."
Shen Wei got into the car silently.
The blood-red flags were flying, and the black cavalry of Southern Chu left in an orderly manner. The Mingyuan River was flowing slowly, and the mountain wind was blowing on the young face of King Wu.
His legs went limp and he fell to the ground. The guard Zhang Wulang beside him hurriedly supported him: "Your Majesty! Are you okay?"
Wu Wangjun's face turned pale, and he stammered, "Did you hear that man call himself 'Zhen'?"
Zhang Wulang replied: "I heard it."
King Wu's body trembled, and he said with lingering fear: "Could he be the terrible Southern Chu God-killing Emperor? The executioner who killed almost all the royal family of Southern Chu?"
Zhang Wulang couldn't make up his mind either.
The Emperor of Nanchu relied on iron-blooded means to secure his position as emperor, and his reputation as a killer spread far and wide. His massacre of royal relatives was known to everyone. The King of Wu did not expect that he would meet him by the Mingyuan River.
His legs were shaking with fear.
Yuan Fu's eyes were filled with tears, and he ran over to ask for help: "Your Highness Prince Wu, please save my sister! She, she was taken away by the bad guys, wuwuwuwu."
King Wu looked at Yuanfu with a complicated look and couldn't help asking, "Xiao Afu, are you the illegitimate son of the Emperor of Nanchu? Or is your sister the illegitimate daughter of the Emperor of Nanchu?"
Yuanfu's eyes were filled with tears: "I, I'm not."
His sister also has nothing to do with the Nanchu royal family.
Ajie said she was not Yuan Xier, but did not reveal her true identity. Yuanfu was so anxious that he cried, and he especially hated his own powerlessness.
Because she was young and weak, her elder sister Yuan Xier was forced by outsiders to jump into the sea and commit suicide.
Because she was young and weak, the newly recognized sister was also abducted by outsiders.
King Wu clenched his fists and shouted angrily, "Since Yuan Xier has nothing to do with the Nanchu royal family, I must find a way to rescue her! She is my future concubine. The Nanchu emperor is so shameless that he took my wife away! I just wish I could kill him in person!"
Zhang Wulang hurriedly reminded: "Your Majesty, please keep your voice down, in case there are spies from the Emperor of Nanchu nearby."
King Wu: "..."
King Wu raised his voice: "Let's go! Go to Minzhou immediately to ask Shen Xiuming for help!"
...
...
Minzhou, an inn.
At the door of the upper room, the tiger guards were standing guard with swords and sharp eyes. In the inn room, Shen Xiuming, dressed in casual clothes, sat at the desk and opened the letter sent from Yanjing City.
Shen Xiuming frowned.
Some time ago, his sister Shen Wei was used by an evil person to cast a spell on her and was possessed by an evil spirit. This bizarre story that only exists in picture books actually happened.
The retired emperor and the new emperor were anxious. After finding out the truth, they began to look for Shen Wei in Qing, Yue, Nanchu, Donglin and other areas.
In the vast sea of people, it's like searching for a needle in a haystack, but no trace of Shen Wei has been found so far.
"Oh, my poor sister." Shen Xiuming felt very distressed.
Shen Xiuming had never seen a woman with a more miserable life than his sister. Chen Wei went from being a lowly concubine to sitting on the position of empress dowager after many setbacks. Before she could enjoy her old age, she was targeted by the Emperor of Southern Chu.
Shen Xiuming's eyes were sour.
There was a knock on the door.
The tiger guard walked in and bowed to Shen Xiuming, "Sir, an informant reported. The Nanchu cavalry appeared on the banks of the Mingyuan River and abducted a woman named Yuan Xier from the Donglin tribute team."
Chen Xiuming was shocked: "She got there first! Yuan Xier's identity is suspicious! Send someone to chase her!"
