Even the emperor in the palace praised this "Water Mirror".
"Zhu Xianyue is truly a remarkable woman. Not only did she not let her disfigurement cause her to become devastated, she also took the initiative to offer advice, helping her mother, Li Qingge, become the first female merchant in the Jin Dynasty."
The eunuch asked, "Your Majesty...would you like to have the mother and daughter present this brilliant plan for making mirrors?"
"No need. As a woman, making a living in this world is not easy. I'd rather not interfere."
The eunuch nodded and said, "Yes... Zhu Xianyue was originally the legal wife of Shen Jinchuan, the second son of the Zhenguo Duke. However, because Shen Jinchuan saved Zhu Luoxing, the Zhu family's cousin who had fallen into the water on their wedding day, Zhu Xianyue took the initiative to give up her son-in-law to Shen Jinchuan."
"A good son-in-law? Haha." The emperor disapproved, saying, "If he were truly worthy of trust, he wouldn't have allowed his wife to suffer such humiliation."
"Send someone secretly to the Marquis of Changning to pass on a message. If no one dares to marry Zhu Xianyue, send her to the palace. As long as she doesn't mind the difficulty of having children for me, I naturally won't care about the scar on his face."
The eunuch agreed.
But when he was about to tell Marquis Changning about this, he passed by Changjie and saw the breeze blowing up Zhu Xianyue's veil, revealing her stunningly beautiful face.
Her face was clearly unscathed, unlike the rumors that she had a centipede scar left by an accident.
The eunuch stopped and turned around to tell the emperor what had happened.
The emperor also thought he was right.
Since Zhu Xianyue's appearance has not been ruined and she is so talented, there will definitely be no shortage of suitors in the future.
He won't join in the fun.
"...Marquis Changning is utterly loyal, Li Qingge is tenacious and capable, and Zhu Xianyue is exceptionally intelligent. Therefore, I will reward them with five thousand taels of gold."
“Yeah.”
…
When the decree of reward fell on the Marquis of Changning's Mansion, everyone was envious.
After that day, the news that Zhu Xianyue was not disfigured spread throughout the entire Shangjing City.
And with the emperor's support, she is even more popular as a new bride in the capital.
As the emperor said, the person who came to the Marquis of Changning's Mansion to propose marriage almost broke down the threshold of the Marquis of Changning's Mansion.
Li Qingge was very happy about this.
Even though her own marriage was unhappy and she had gone through countless hardships to obtain the divorce letter, she still believed that a woman's life would only be worthwhile if she married a good husband.
This is the sorrow of women in this era.
A woman's marriage has always been decided by her parents and matchmaker, but she still wanted to ask Zhu Xianyue's opinion.
Zhu Xianyue only left a sentence, saying that she didn't want to get married within this year, and let Li Qingge give up.
Okay... now that her daughter has her own idea, she will follow her.
But he would still find her from time to time and tell her that not all men in this world are Shen Jinchuan.
And what is Shen Jinchuan doing at this time?
He is in a state of panic.
Because he was accused of keeping a mistress behind his wife's back, Minister Zhu was not only demoted, but it was also difficult for him to be reused.
In other words, Zhu Luoxing now has no backing.
She had lost the love of her husband and the support of her father, and for a while she felt like she was "on the verge of death in order to survive."
She was now fearless and did not dare to deal with Shen Jinchuan, so she turned her attention to Shen Jinchuan's new concubine.
The concubine had just been three months pregnant when she was forced to have an abortion.
Shen Jinchuan went to question him, but Zhu Luoxing didn't take it seriously.
