Li Yuanche transmigrates into the body of a cannon-fodder prince who was supposed to have been killed long ago.
But he defies fate and somehow manages to move into a stench-filled alley outside the palace.
He spends his days raising chickens, growing vegetables, and selling pickled greens, completely becoming the good-for-nothing everyone takes him for.
He thinks he will live out the rest of his life in peace like this.
But one day, he unexpectedly receives an imperial marriage decree.
His intended is Huo Qingxian, a border general who has defended half the Great Ming empire.
For this marriage, he regains his noble status as a member of the royal family and becomes the famous Seventh Prince.
After their wedding, he knows he is unworthy.
“Though I am a prince, I know... I am not worthy of a general, and I would never dare hope for more. I only want to keep my life. If one day the general... has someone else in her heart, then she should follow her heart. I won't make a fuss.”
Later, great tears roll down his cheeks.
Huo Qingxian closes in on him, step by step.
“Your Highness said... if I had someone else in my heart, I should follow my heart.”
“And you wouldn't make a fuss... Do your words from back then... still count?”
In public, he is timid and deferential in every way. In private, he sees everything clearly.
He becomes a renowned master chef, and the royal family uses him to publish a hundred recipes.
Later, he receives an imperial decree and becomes the first prince ever demoted to commoner.
When he gets the news, he is not the least bit sad. Instead, he weeps with joy.
*
Huo Qingxian has never met a man so delicate and fragile.
The slightest mishap leaves conspicuous marks on his body.
The sight keeps appearing in her mind.
Thinking of all the women on the street who flock around the Seventh Prince,
She wants to kill them even more.
Every day she restrains herself. Every day she goes to the study.
Everyone thinks she is busy handling military affairs,
Until someone discovers the Heart Sutra she has been copying and hiding under her desk.
It is only on the night they consummate their marriage that she discovers
This Seventh Prince is not as frail as he seems.
He is plainly a little beast...
*
Life on the frigid border is harsh.
But lately, the food has been getting better and better. Even wild greens taste like fine cuisine.
As Huo Qingxian eats, she thinks the dishes taste much like they were made by one particular person.
But they are always just... a little off.
She misses him so much that she cannot sleep. She steps out of her tent for some air in the middle of the night,
Only to see smoke rising from a tent in the corner.
It is already past mealtime.
The soldiers are all starving. Is someone secretly cooking for themselves?
She strides over furiously.
The soldier is bent over a pile of firewood, blowing on the flames.
“What are you doing?”
The soldier jumps in fright.
He turns around, his face covered in soot.
His eyes red, he whispers:
“I’m... making you ginger soup to ward off the cold and warm you up.”
Upcoming novel: Everyone Invites Me to Become a Contaminant
Ye Shiyi transmigrates to a world of mutated plants.
Here, she finds the mother who died in her original world.
She weeps with joy, but her mother needs a heart to survive. Otherwise, she can only choose to be reborn or be confiscated by the authorities.
There are three types of hearts to choose from: artificially cultivated hearts, mechanical hearts, and mutated plant hearts.
She chooses the most expensive kind, a mutated plant heart.
From then on, she is saddled with a huge debt.
She discovers that people here have green blood.
Some people’s consciousness can be auctioned off and sold, or turned into “spirit dolls” for others’ amusement.
People can be confiscated and turned into trash cans, billboards, indicator lights, and more.
They have no death penalty. Criminals’ bodies become fertilizer for mutated plants.
They do not die, either. Everyone is required to live forever.
She takes all kinds of jobs to earn money and pay off her debt.
Later, she finds a way to make money quickly. It is dangerous, but worth it.
As she works, she gradually uncovers many of this world's secrets.
The mutated plants in this place eat people and even escape.
The walls of the rooms where the rich live conceal poor people who struggle to get free.
Black-market factories can mass-produce batches of plant-made humans.
As the truth is revealed piece by piece,
Everyone here has become a contaminant.
Ye Shiyi’s family, her friends, even strangers who do not know her.
They all warmly invite her: “Shiyi, come become a contaminant with us.”
Theme: Love life and stand firm in protecting your homeland.
It's good to read, I like it, thank you to the author. This is the first time I stayed up all night to read a novel. My aunt couldn't stop laughing throughout the whole process. I felt that the emotional part of the male and female protagonists was well written. It was stretched but not to the point of being disgusting. The emotions completely followed the plot. The atmosphere was well rendered. The heroine's character is very attractive, calm and decisive, but a bit small. . . Well, I feel a bit autistic and not very good at communicating emotions with others. He is thoughtful and the characters he creates are very three-dimensional. However, I feel that the male protagonist is a bit too weak and looks a bit like a girl. I almost mistook the male protagonist for a girl several times 😂 😂 😂 In addition, there is a place where the word "he" is marked as "she", which makes me even more I feel like watching Lily, and I'm not saying that the male protagonist's design is not good. I just hope someone can pay more attention to it. In some places, the male protagonist really feels too girly. The capital letters are very good, come on 💪 💪 💪. In addition, the novel reads very smoothly, and the picture transition is very natural. I praise 💪 💪 💪. (No malicious intent [uppercase and bold])
"The smile on Li Yuanche's face gradually disappeared. She had never seen Huo Qingxian talking to her like this, "Catch a big bug for the author~ There's a typo, it's him, not her
