After Retiring from Marriage, I became the Favorite of a Powerful Minister

Shi Qingluo, an expert in agriculture, opened her eyes after her death and transmigrated into an ancient peasant girl.

In the beginning, she was sold by her family and forcibly taken away to ...

Chapter 497 Beautiful Thoughts

Prince Jin’s words made Shi Qingluo stunned.

Didn't they say Princess Jin is the King's true love? Is this true love? You must be teasing her.

She really didn't expect that Prince Jin would give up Princess Jin just like that, and it seemed like the decision had been made long ago.

She looked at her husband and found that he was also a little surprised.

Not only were the two of them surprised, even Liang Yulin didn't expect Liang Yujun to do this.

Whether it was the news in the capital or from the north city, it all showed that Liang Yujun was very fond of Princess Jin, even to the point of indulgence.

He also gave a lot of support to Princess Jin's family, and was completely devoted to loving his wife.

He doesn't seem like the kind of man who would divorce his wife.

He looked towards Liang Yujun and saw that he did not show any pain or pity, as if everything was going on naturally.

Based on his understanding of Liang Yujun, this guy has most likely wanted to divorce his wife for a long time, and today was just an excuse.

He also did a good deed by doing good to Xiao Hanzheng and his wife, and saved the previously ruined reputation of Princess Xia Jin and her daughter.

This guy is indeed treacherous and his brain is as defective as before.

He raised his eyebrows, "Brother, what kind of explanation is this?"

Shi Qingluo looked at Prince Jin and said, "My Lord, whether to divorce the princess is your family matter, it has nothing to do with us."

She also saw Prince Jin's plan, but why should they go along with him?

She is not afraid of Princess Jin and her daughter. It is good to keep such brainless teammates by Prince Jin's side.

If they were divorced, it would be good for both of them to be in poverty and receive retribution.

So whether they take a break or not really has little impact on them.

What Prince Jin wants to use as compensation is too light.

It seems like he already wanted to divorce his wife, and he was using them as an excuse. That's wishful thinking.

But Princess Jin is really a joke. She always thought she was Prince Jin's true love.

But if all this is true love, then it would be too much of a disgrace to the word "true love".

Liang Yujun didn't expect Shi Qingluo to say such a thing. He always thought that divorcing his wife and demoting his daughter would make her very satisfied and happy.

He ignored Liang Yulin, looked at Shi Qingluo and asked, "Are you dissatisfied with this decision of the king?"

Shi Qingluo shrugged, "Whether the prince divorces his wife or not is none of my business, so there is no such thing as satisfaction or dissatisfaction."

She said with a look that said you have a deep misunderstanding, "After all, the princess hired a killer to kill someone, which is against the law. It doesn't seem to have much to do with your divorce."

If you break the law, you can just divorce your wife, so what is the use of the law? Liang Yujun choked, "Then what do you want to do?"

Shi Qingluo replied: "Deal with it according to the law."

"Or let the princess and the county lady make up for their mistakes."

Liang Yujun raised his eyebrows and asked, "How do you make up for it?"

It’s not that he wants to protect Ruan Songling, but if he is dealt with according to the law, he will have to go to jail or be exiled.

Whether his princess was sent to jail or exiled, it would be a slap in his face.

If he agreed, he would become a joke in Daliang and would also shake the morale of the army.

Shi Qingluo knew that Prince Jin would not allow Princess Jin to be punished by the law, and she did not want to force him to do so.

After all, even a rabbit will bite if it is cornered, not to mention that King Jin is a wolf.

She said: "Since the princess and the county lady came here, they have either targeted my husband and me or the people."

“So if you want to compensate, focus on compensating the people.”

"As long as the princess and the county lady spend their own private money to build a cement road from Heyang County to the capital, the matter will be settled."

But building roads in modern times is a very costly and laborious task, let alone in ancient times.

Of course, if you can blackmail Prince Jin and his wife, you have to do it.

Building a road from Heyang County to the capital will not only boost the economy of Heyang County, but will also gradually revitalize the entire northern border.

Other places only need to build another road connecting to this cement road, which means they can go directly to the capital.

The key point is that this request just hits King Jin's bottom line, and he will definitely agree.

Maybe Prince Jin would be quite happy about it. She always felt that he seemed to dislike Princess Jin.

The previous pampering seemed more like an act.

And he will not fall out with Prince Jin, he will still try to win over the couple.

Only in this way can he complete the emperor's orders, deal with Prince Jin, and search for the treasures of the previous dynasty.

Except for Xiao Hanzheng, no one present expected Shi Qingluo to make such a request.

When the people outside heard this, they were all filled with gratitude. The lady was so kind that she was still thinking about them at this time.

Liang Yujun was also surprised. He thought Shi Qingluo would take the opportunity to make some requests that would be beneficial to her.

Although building a road to the capital was expensive, it was also good for his reputation.

Ruan Songling has saved a lot of private money over the years, and her brothers from her natal family have made a lot of money by taking advantage of the affairs of the palace.

Since they want to deal with her, of course they have to make her and her family bleed heavily again.

But he couldn't do such a thing. After all, they had been married for so many years. If he even eliminated all his money, it would not only affect his reputation, but also make the people who followed him feel disheartened.

Shi Qingluo's suggestion hit the nail on the head.

Moreover, building a cement road leading to the capital city with legitimate reasons would be beneficial for him to lead his troops into the capital city in the future.

Without much hesitation, he nodded and said, "Okay, this is what the mother and daughter should compensate for."

He looked at Xiao Hanzheng again and said, "Have someone calculate how much silver is needed. I will supervise Ruan and her family to take out this money to compensate you and the people."

He directly addressed the princess as Nguyen, which also meant that he still wanted to divorce her.

And the palace will not pay for this money.

Xiao Hanzheng bowed to Prince Jin, "Your Majesty is righteous!"

This is a great way to play the game of sacrificing one's own interests for the sake of justice.

But his young wife is more powerful. If it were anyone else, they would definitely be shocked to hear that Prince Jin wanted to divorce his wife, and then be led astray by Prince Jin.

This time, not only did he deal with Princess Jin and her daughter, but he also made the other party bleed heavily. Even if Prince Jin's reputation was saved, it was still damaged a lot. The result still made him very satisfied.

Prince Jin and Xiao Hanzheng and his wife discussed the compensation issue, and Ruan Songling came back to her senses from her disbelief.

She stared at Prince Jin in a daze and asked, "Liang Yujun, are you going to divorce me?"

She never thought that one day he would abandon her in public.

Liang Yujun did not hide his disgust this time. "No matter your character or behavior, how can you be like a princess?"

"I never thought you were such a person, and you taught your daughter to be so spoiled and vicious."

"I have been deceived by you before. Now I know that you have a bad character. Naturally, I cannot let you continue to be the princess."

He added with a righteous look: "Otherwise, how can we explain to the people you have harmed, and how can we explain to the people?"

Ruan Songling took a few steps back, as if she was meeting Liang Yujun for the first time.

How could he do this to her.

I got stuck after writing only a few hundred words in the next two chapters. I suddenly don't know what to write next after the issue of Princess Jin and her daughter has been resolved. I'll think about it and sort it out. The remaining two chapters will be around 16:00~      (End of this chapter)
