From the start, the Duke of Zhenguo's household was framed by villains, and the entire family was sentenced to exile, sent three thousand miles away to desolate Qiongzhou.
The whole capital waited for a laugh at their expense, unaware that the legitimate three-and-a-half-year-old daughter, little Suisui, was the youngest daughter of the Sea God of the Nine Heavens.
While other exiles ate husks and suffered from the change in climate, Suisui toddled down to the seaside for a stroll. A century-old, top-quality lobster jumped right into her bucket, and giant abalones the size of washbasins lined up, begging her to take them home. Her three down-and-out brothers thought they would die far from home, but their little sister's seafood feasts made them strong and turned them into lords of the island.
The eldest brother was the star of literature reborn, and became the richest man in the land through seafood trade. The second brother was the star of military prowess reincarnated, and built an invincible fleet. The third brother was a mechanical prodigy who built repeating crossbows to defend the coast.
When the foolish emperor heard that the Shen family must be starving in Lingnan, reduced to skin and bones, he sent an imperial envoy to collect their bodies.
But the moment the envoy reached shore, he saw Suisui surfing on a great white shark while her three brothers roasted a top-grade emperor crab over golden-threaded nanmu wood.
