Why did the foreign princess living in China refuse to return to her country to inherit the royal family’s billions of inheritance?

China has advocated the concept of nostalgia since ancient times, and hometown is a place that a person cannot forget. Every Chinese hopes that in his later years he can be nostalgic for his hometown and return to his hometown with honor. Now, we are going to tell a story about a Chinese woman who has been living in China since she was a child. Suddenly one day the overseas royal family found her. After verification, it was said that she was a princess from an overseas royal family living in China, and she was asked to inherit hundreds of millions of family assets. However, this foreign princess refused and still chose to live in her hometown, China.

This woman is called Xu Shiyin'e. She grew up in Fujian when she was a child. She often heard her great-grandmother tell her stories, saying that her ancestors were not Chinese and settled in China a long time ago.

At that time, Xu Shiyin'e was relatively young and did not investigate the origin and truth of the matter. However, as she grew older, she wanted to know the truth more and more, but her great-grandmother did not answer directly. After her great-grandmother passed away, she continued to search for the truth, so she looked up her surname, only to find that there was no information about the surname Xu Shi. When she continued to ask her father, his father got angry and told him not to ask about it. However, her father also explained to her at that time that Xu Shi was composed of the two surnames Xu and Shi, and it also belonged to their family.

Later, when Xu Shiyin'e was sixteen years old, her father told her the truth. It turns out that their family was originally the royal family of the country of Ceylon (today's Sri Lanka). The story can also be told from 1459 AD, the Ming Dynasty in China. At that time, the Ming Dynasty was strong and powerful, and thousands of dynasties came to the country. In order to maintain relations with the Ming Dynasty, the king of Ceylon sent Prince Seri Padyao Raja to China with a lot of gold and silver jewelry, and paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty emperor. The person responsible for receiving the prince was Zheng He's nephew Zheng Yuan.

Since Zheng Yuan had arrived in Ceylon with Zheng He and was warmly received by the king and prince of Ceylon, he would naturally take this distinguished prince with him.

However, when Prince Seripa of Ceylon visited the Qing Dynasty, earth-shaking changes took place in Ceylon. The cousins ??of the King of Ceylon launched a rebellion and personally killed the King of Ceylon and members of the royal family. When the Prince of Ceylon received the news, he was heartbroken, but he had no way to return to his country to regain the royal power, so he had to settle and take refuge in China.

At that time, the prince Seri Pajao Laja settled in Quanzhou, Fujian, and used one of the characters in his name, "Shi", as his surname. Since then, the Prince of Ceylon has settled down and taken root in China. Since the Prince of Ceylon and his wife had no son, and their daughter also fell in love with a man named Xu, the Prince of Ceylon did not want his daughter to marry elsewhere, so he asked this man to marry him. So "Shishi" was changed to "Xu Shishi".

In order to make his life stable, the prince left behind his ancestral precepts and had to publicize his family's origins everywhere. Therefore, Xu Shiyin'e didn't know that she had royal blood at first. It was not until 1996, when five family tombstones were excavated, that Xu Shiyin'e's family history was revealed.

In 2002, Sri Lankan officials came to Quanzhou many times. After detailed inspections, they finally determined that Xu Shiyin was a descendant of the then Prince of Ceylon, Seri Pajao Raja. They also welcomed Xu Shiyin. Shi Yin'e was able to return to her hometown and settle down. But surprisingly, Xu Shiyin'e rejected their invitation. She explained: My ancestors have always lived in China, and I just want to be an ordinary Chinese.
