Description

Jiang Juan had transmigrated into a book, becoming a cannon fodder who had pretended to be sick for many years, and was forcibly married off to Prince Li, Xue Fangli. However, no one knew that Xue Fangli wouldn’t live past three chapters. Jiang Juan only needed to endure him until he died, and then he would harvest a happy salted fish life. On the day of their marriage— Xue Fangli: “I don’t have much time left. I’ve wronged you.” Jiang Juan: “You haven’t wronged me, Your Highness. It’s an honor for me to be associated with someone as distinguished as you.” Xue Fangli: “How do you feel about leaving? Would you like that?” Jiang Juan: “I am willing to accompany Your Highness forever.” After a moment of silence, Xue Fangli coughed lightly, blood seeping from his fingers. “In that case, I’ll come back in a few days to ask you again.” Jiang Juan’s face paled, but inwardly, he was ecstatic. — You will ask me again in a few days? That’s impossible. You’ll die within three chapters. Xue Fangli remained silent, quietly scoffing to himself. — You are willing to accompany me forever? With your frailty, how long can you hold on? * Later, three chapters had passed, and although Xue Fangli frequently coughed up blood, he remained alive and well. Several months later, while Jiang Juan’s heart condition often flared up, he remained unharmed. Xue Fangli: ? Jiang Juan: ? Later on, as the plot took unexpected turns, Xue Fangli ascended to the throne, and both of them changed their minds. —He couldn’t die. On this day, a renowned physician from Jiangnan arrived in the capital. Jiang Juan immediately left the palace to find him. He kicked open the door of his room and said, “Physician, my husband often coughs up blood and is weak. I’m not ready to be a widow yet. Can you help…?” Inside the room, Xue Fangli grabbed the renowned physician by the neck with one hand and lifted him up, his face darkened. “My Empress suffers from heart disease, and his condition often worsens. He’s frail and unable to care for himself. Will you treat him, or…?” The two people’s eyes met. “?” Something serious has happened.

My Thoughts on The Salted Fish Has Moved On

"The Salted Fish Has Moved On" promised a fluffy, feel-good story with a unique twist, and for the most part, it delivered. It's a completed original novel, so I knew going in that I was in for a full story. After diving in, I can see why it has a decent rating, but it's not without its quirks.

First Impressions

The premise is definitely intriguing. Our MC finds himself transmigrated into a novel as a "salted fish" character married to a tyrannical ML. The initial hook of the MC wanting nothing more than to laze around and the ML being a feared figure created a fun dynamic. I was ready for some sweet moments and some not so sweet ones.

What Works Well

The core of the story lies in the relationship between the MC and ML, and I found it quite enjoyable. I appreciated the gradual development of their romance, especially the way the ML's cruel nature was balanced by the MC's presence. The MC's "salted fish" persona, while sometimes frustrating, ultimately served as a grounding force for the ML, which was a nice touch. I also found the side characters added to the overall enjoyment, creating a well-rounded cast. The author does a great job of making each character memorable and distinct.

Areas of Concern

Honestly, the MC's naiveté did get a little grating at times. His tendency to overlook the ML's darker tendencies, while understandable, felt a bit overdone. I think the story could have benefited from a bit more depth in exploring the consequences of the ML's actions. I also found the constant descriptions of the MC's beauty a bit repetitive and unnecessary. It's a minor point, but it did detract from the overall experience.

Overall, "The Salted Fish Has Moved On" is an enjoyable read if you're looking for a fluffy romance with a bit of political intrigue. The MC's naiveté and the repetitive descriptions can be a bit irritating, but the central relationship between the MC and ML is well-developed and satisfying. If you're a fan of the genre, it's definitely worth checking out.
