[Qing Dynasty Transmigration + Strange Tales] I Have a Special Way of Being a Salty Fish

A friendly warning: This book has quite a few typos. The author has only slowly revised the first seventy-some chapters, so readers should think carefully before diving in.

At first, Wang Fei thought she had simply transmigrated into the Qing dynasty, in an ordinary female-to-male transmigration. Her new identity was a little dangerous, but as long as he kept his head down, nobody could stop him from living the life of a happy layabout!

That was until the day his adoptive mother, Imperial Noble Consort Tong, brought a dazzling, alluring Han woman back from outside the palace...

From then on, his life seemed to have flipped some strange switch. First, the floor tiles in his bedroom became spirits. Then he brought home a group of tiny household immortals, barely three inches tall. He accompanied the imperial procession to Jiangnan, where he failed to see the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum he was supposed to visit, but saw a whole host of water ghosts, demonic Taoists, immortals, and dragon princes instead.

If that were all, he could just about put up with it.

But can someone tell him why the fourth prince's primary wife in the Kangxi era isn't Nala, and where this Fucha woman came from?

And why does Fucha look at him so coldly?

The Yongzheng Emperor, whose rebirth went wrong by accident: Don't use my face to make such an undignified expression!

PS: 1. This story has a woman transmigrating into a man, becoming the fourth prince of the Kangxi Emperor, and a man transmigrating into a woman, with the deceased Yongzheng Emperor transmigrating into Fucha. They will never switch bodies again!

2. Corrections of factual errors are welcome, but please don't give me writing advice or make comparison posts.

3. The parts involving Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio may include other classic tales about ghosts and fox spirits.

4. That's all. If you're okay with this, come on in. If any of this is a dealbreaker, enter with caution.

Upcoming novel: [Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio] Leading Its Characters to Serve the People

One day, he transmigrates, and his worldview is turned upside down.

In this life, he is born into a modestly wealthy family. His widowed mother rules the household and has set him the goal of studying Taoist arts diligently and killing the tiger demon to avenge his father.

Jiang Tingyun: ...Mother, don't start. We have to believe in science and oppose superstition!

But the unusual illness afflicting the boy next door, the Earth God temple in the neighboring village that the villagers angrily tore down, and his uncle's neighbor's child bride, who gave birth at eight, strike his already precarious worldview again and again.

Then one day, he sees a corpse with all ten fingers stuck into a tree trunk, and his worldview shatters completely...

Watching the various ghosts and fox spirits wreak havoc in the countryside, Jiang Tingyun silently takes out the Taoist texts given to him by his master, the Taoist from Mount Lao.

Many years later, at the Xuandu Temple on Mount Lao.

Jiang Tingyun stands at the lectern, facing a group of little ones of all shapes and sizes.
