The salted fish concubine only wants to farm every day

Shu Ruohua transmigrated into the role of the Crown Princess married to the powerful heir of the Eastern Palace?
No, no, no—she had just been thrown into the Cold Palace and demoted to a discarded consort.

Fat and ugly, she became the laughingstock and target of ridicule for the other imperial concubines during tea and idle chatter.

But what was going on with His Highness the Crown Prince?
Not only did he visit the Cold Palace every day, he often didn’t return to his own quarters at night?

One day—
The Crown Prince publicly declared, “Shu Ruohua is officially reinstated as the Crown Princess.”

Alas, the slacker couldn’t maintain her momentum. She had just been reinstated and was immediately demoted again to a Side Consort.

Then one day, a “Fruit & Vegetable Supermarket” suddenly opened in the capital?
The produce was so delicious it was unbeatable, with customers crowding in every day.

Yet another day, a “Health Restaurant” opened in the capital?
The common people praised it: “Affordable prices, and even our chronic illnesses have gotten better!”

One year later, the concubines of all the palaces suddenly received word:
“Your Ladyship, Shu Ruohua has renovated the Cold Palace. It’s now as grand as the Imperial Palace itself.”

Some years later, the Crown Prince ascended the throne.

A eunuch proclaimed an imperial edict:
“By the Mandate of Heaven, His Majesty decrees: Side Consort Shu, upright and virtuous in conduct… is hereby conferred the title of Noble Consort.”

One day—
His Majesty the Emperor said, “I’m in need of an Empress. My beloved, are you interested?”

The slacker firmly shook her head. “I’m not suitable. I’m only fit to be a slacker.”

His Majesty replied, “No matter—slackers, salted fish, even salted pigs—they’re all to my taste!”
