Chapter 1: Rebirth from Abuse
There was a crisp sound of "pop", a loud slap hit the face, and then Xu Jinrou's body was kicked out and fell heavily to the ground.
"Princess! Mama Fang shouted and rushed over desperately, but was knocked to the ground by the wolf-like guards.
One foot, two feet..., Xu Jinrou's body convulsed and shrunk into a ball because of the pain, but her heart hurt even more, the person who kicked her was her husband, a husband she thought had been dead for twenty-seven years, a husband he worshiped for twenty-seven years, and now not only appeared alive in front of him, but also beat himself so viciously.
was trampled on by a foot in the heart, Xu Jinrou spasmed all over, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
"You can't fight anymore, lord, please don't fight anymore, if you fight the princess again, you'll die!" Mama Fang, who was pressed to the ground by the guards, kept begging.
But Xu Jinrou didn't say a word, she was stunned at first, she didn't know if she was dreaming, the hideous face in front of her was making her gradually sober up.
"You slut, you still have the face to find here, this king should have killed you a long time ago, and let you tarnish the reputation of my Jin Wangfu for so many years."
"Husband, the princess's face is really handsome, she is almost fifty years old, and she is so delicate and moving, no wonder she likes men!"
The one who spoke was a woman over forty years old, wearing an emerald brocade dress, embroidered cloth shoes, hair dyed like ink, and skin better than snow.
"Ahh Xu Jinrou screamed, her face was cut open with a knife, and she was drenched in blood, which made her see the true face of this man, he was so vicious, he had no affection for himself, and he had paid for so many years of humiliation and hard work.
Xu Jinrou's husband, Song Heng, the king of Jin, married Xu Jinrou at the age of sixteen twenty-seven years ago to the palace of the king of Jin. On the night of marriage, before the round house, the army of the Western Barbarian State attacked Dachu, Song Heng led the order to go out, and a year later the news came back that the king of Jin was trampled by a horse in the two armies and died, and his bones were gone. Xu Jinrou was in pain, and she fell seriously ill for it, and almost went with him.
Today is Song Heng's death day, after the worship, his nephew Song Jian said that he would take her to see a different scenery, accompanied by the palace guards, Xu Jinrou and the personal maid Fang Ruo, followed Song Jian to the door of this mountain courtyard not too far from the royal mausoleum.
It's really a different scenery, she saw her husband Song Heng, who should have died, holding the woman named Wanniang in his arms, drinking tea and enjoying flowers in the courtyard, Song Jian asked the guards to push her and Fang Ruo into the courtyard and close the courtyard door.
The knife in Song Heng's hand was dripping with blood, "Keeping your face is the shame of the Jin Palace, and now I am going to go out of the mountain again to serve the Great Chu State, I can't let you, a slut, be embarrassed again."
Xu Jinrou's whole body trembled, "King Jin, if it weren't for me Xu Jinrou, this Great Chu, this Song clan would have been wiped out by the Western Barbarians a long time ago, where can you be the king of Jin again?" Aren't you afraid of retribution when you do this to me? ”
Wan Niang approached Song Heng, "Husband, look at her eyes, it's so scary, as if she wants to eat people." ”
Song Heng raised his knife and leaned down, "Really?" Don't keep the scary stuff. ”
"Ah", a terrible scream came out of Xu Jinrou's mouth, and her two eyes were picked out by Song Heng's knife.
"Clean hands and feet, don't let Liu Rentu know, then none of us will be better."
This is what her nephew Song Jian said, and it is also the last sentence Xu Jinrou heard in this life.
When she opened her eyes again, Xu Jinrou returned to twenty-four years ago, and she was reborn.
This year is the fourth year that she married into the Jin Palace.
The west wind was fierce, Xu Jinrou rode on a horse, let the wind and sand blow on her face, and looked at the smoke and dust in the distance without moving.
Fang Ruo rode on a jujube red horse, galloping, purple and spring, heroic posture.
"Princess, Salt and Iron have made Lord Lu here!"
Xu Jinrou couldn't help but be stunned when she saw such a fresh, young and energetic Fangruo.
"Princess, Princess, what's wrong with you?"
Xu Jinrou came back to her senses, "Let's go and greet us!" As he spoke, he urged the peach blossom horse named "Slim Away" to rush out.
She was reborn, but the time of rebirth was not right, when she married into the fourth year of the Jin Palace, all the burdens of external troubles fell on her shoulders during the year, making her unable to escape.
The Western Barbarian Kingdom forced the women of the Great Chu State to be in charge, and the queen said that the princess of Jin, Xu Jinrou, endured humiliation for the sake of the Great Chu and the Song family, so she should be entrusted with a heavy responsibility and let her be in charge of the three divisions of the yamen, and gave her a title of prime minister, but everyone is still used to calling her princess.
Now Xu Jinrou understands that the reason why the queen arranged it this way is just because she can talk to Liu Rentu and get silver.
Salt and iron make Lu Fuhu is over seventy years old, but the body bones are very strong, the waist is straight, and now there are no native men between the ages of sixteen and sixty in the Great Chu State except for the disabled, Lu Fuhu was originally at home when he was recuperating in his old age, but he was recalled and took up this important position again.
"Lu Zhengzhi, can there be progress this time?" Xu Jin Judo.
Lu Fuhu sighed and shook his head slightly, "Hey, it's still not possible, two of the three levels have been bought, but the last one refuses to let go." ”
"It's the people of the original Yan Kingdom who are guarding the third checkpoint, could it be that they really listen to Ximan's orders wholeheartedly?"
"It's not, they don't think we have enough money!"
"I've already allocated three thousand taels of silver to the Salt and Iron Division for monthly customs clearance, isn't it enough?"
"This ......, princess, the queen wants me to leave three hundred taels of silver here every month, the queen said, there are a few royal relatives who have to live on silver, and the queen said that she has already greeted you!"
Xu Jinrou's pupils contracted, the queen did greet her about this matter, and she also knew that the silver was sent to Zhuqiao Village, Cuiping Mountain, but she lived to half a hundred, and when she was dying, she knew that the relative of the royal family was the queen's biological son, her husband King Jin.
"You don't have to keep the silver, it's all for customs clearance."
"But the Queen... How to explain? "Lu Fuhu is very embarrassed.
Xu Jinrou's eyes became deep, "Without the supplement of foreign salt, it won't take long for our Da Chu to mess up, everything will be empty talk, is it important for those relatives to survive or for Da Chu to survive?" Xu Jinrou's eyes revealed ruthlessness.
"But in this way, the queen is likely to cut off my Lu family's income, and the old minister's family will be difficult to live!" Lu Fuhu's tone was almost pleading.
Xu Jinrou smiled, this smile seemed to be a peach blossom blooming, "At the beginning, all the silver in the whole country was snatched away by the Western Barbarian State, except for the money that moved into my Xu family, and now the whole country uses the silver taken away from my Xu family." I have the right to use it, if the queen has any objections, let her come to me, if Lu Zhengzhi has any difficulties, she can also come to me! ”
Lu Fuhu suddenly felt that this Jin princess was a little different, he bowed down on the horse and saluted, "The official obeys the order, now the Western Barbarian Kingdom controls all business transactions, and requires all living materials to be purchased with silver, and my Great Chu people can only be reduced to swords, and Liu Rentu is really vicious!" ”
Xu Jinrou sighed softly, "Hey, that's better than destroying my Da Chu!" ”
