Chapter 498 - 498 You're still lying to yourself even now?
498 You’re still lying to yourself even now?
Prince Jin’s words stunned Shi Qingluo.
Didn’t they say that the princess consort was Prince Jin true love?
How was she his true love? He must be teasing her.
She didn’t expect Prince Jin to give up his princess consort just like that.
It seemed like he had already decided to do so.
She looked at her young husband and found that he also looked a little surprised.
The two of them weren’t the only ones surprised.
Even Liang Yulin hadn’t expected Liang Yujun to pull off such a move.
Be it the news from the capital or from Northern City, all mentioned that Liang Yujun doted on his princess consort very much, even to the extent of indulging her.
He was even more supportive of her maternal family, as much as he loved his wife.
He didn’t look like someone who would divorce his wife.
He looked at Liang Yujun and saw that he did not seem to be in the slightest bit of pain or pity, as if everything was so logical.
Based on his understanding of Liang Yujun, there was an 80 – 90% chance that this guy had long wanted to divorce his wife, and today was just an excuse.
He also used the idea of prioritizing righteousness before his family, doing Xiao Hanzheng and his wife a favor, and also saving the reputation of Jin wangfei and her daughter.
This guy was indeed cunning, and his brain was just as sick as before.
He raised his eyebrows. “Imperial brother, what kind of explanation is this?”
Shi Qingluo looked at Prince Jin. “Your Highness, divorcing the princess consort is your family matter. This has nothing to do with us. ”
She could also see through Prince Jin’s plan, but why did they have to go along with him?
She wasn’t afraid of Prince Jin’s princess consort and her daughter.
It was good to have such brainless pig-like teammates by Prince Jin’s side.
If they were divorced, it would be good for the two of them to suffer retribution.
Hence, it didn’t really affect them much if they didn’t stop.
King Jin wanted to use this as compensation, but it was too light.
She felt that he had already wanted to divorce her, but he still wanted to use them as an excuse. In his dreams.
However, this Jin wangfei was really a joke. She used to think that she was Jin Wang’s true love.
However, if this was true love, then it would taint the word ‘true love’.
Liang Yujun had not expected Shi Qingluo to say something like that. He had always thought that she would be very satisfied and happy that he had divorced his wife and demoted her daughter.
He ignored Liang Yulin and looked at Shi Qingluo, ” “You’re not satisfied with this King’s decision?”
Shi Qingluo shrugged his shoulders. your Royal Highness’s divorce has nothing to do with me, so there’s no such thing as satisfaction or dissatisfaction.
She gave him a look that said, ” you misunderstood me too deeply.”After all, it’s against the law for the princess Consort to hire an assassin to kill someone. This doesn’t seem to have much to do with you divorcing your wife.”
If they broke the law, they could just divorce their wives. What was the point of the law?
Liang Yujun choked. then what do you want to do? ”
“According to the law,” Shi Qingluo replied.
“Or let wangfei He County make up for their mistakes.”
“How?” Liang Yujun asked, raising an eyebrow.
It wasn’t that he wanted to protect ruan Songling, but if he was dealt with according to the law, he would have to go to jail or be exiled.
Whether his wangfei was sent to jail or exiled, it was a slap to his face.
If he agreed, he would become a laughingstock in Daliang country and would even shake the morale of the Army.
Shi Qingluo knew that Jin Wang wouldn’t let Jin wangfei be punished by the law, so she didn’t want to force him to do so.
After all, even a rabbit would bite when forced into a corner, not to mention that Jin Wang was a Wolf.
“Ever since the princess Consort He County Lord came here, they’ve been targeting either us or the people,” she said.
so, since we need compensation, we should focus on compensating the people.
“As long as the princess Consort He County Lord spend their own money to build a cement road from Heyang County to the capital, this matter will be settled.”
To get rich, build roads first.
However, building roads in the modern world was very costly, let alone in ancient times.
Of course, if he could extort money from Jin Wang and his wife, he would.
Building a road from Heyang County to the capital would not only drive the economy of Heyang County, but it would also gradually revive the entire northern border.
In other places, they only needed to build a road that connected to this cement road, which was equivalent to leading directly to the capital.
The most important thing was that this request was just right at Jin Wang’s bottom line. He would definitely agree to it.
Perhaps Jin Wang would be happy to do so. She always felt that he seemed to hate Jin wangfei.
The love he had for her in the past was more like an act.
Moreover, he would not fall out with Jin Wang and would still try to win the couple over.
This was the only way to complete the emperor’s order to deal with Jin Wang and search for the treasures of the previous dynasty.
Other than Xiao hanzheng, no one else present had expected Shi Qingluo to make such a request.
When the commoners outside heard this, they were all extremely grateful. Madam was really too good. At a time like this, she was still thinking about the commoners.
Liang Yujun was also very surprised. He had thought that Shi Qingluo would take the opportunity to make some request that would benefit her.
Although it was expensive to build a road to the capital, it was also beneficial to his reputation.
Ruan Songling had saved up a lot of money over the years, and her brothers from her maternal family had also used the Wang Fu’s Affairs to get a lot of money.
Since he was going to deal with her, of course, he had to make her and her family bleed a lot.
However, it was not appropriate for him to do such a thing. After all, they had been married for so many years. If he were to be ruthless in terms of money, not only would it affect his reputation, but he was also afraid that the people who followed him would feel disappointed.
Shi Qingluo’s suggestion hit him right on the mark.
Moreover, building a proper cement road to the capital would also be beneficial for him to lead his troops into the capital in the future.
Without much hesitation, he nodded and said, ” “Alright, this is what the mother and daughter should compensate.”
He then looked at Xiao hanzheng. get someone to calculate how much silver is needed. I will make sure that Madame ruan and her maiden family take out this amount of silver to compensate you and the people.
He directly called the princess Consort ruan Shi, which also meant that he still wanted to divorce her.
Moreover, the Wang family would not fork out this sum of money.
Xiao hanzheng cupped his hands at Jin Wang. your Royal Highness, you’re just!
This ‘placing righteousness before family’ was really good.
However, his little wife was even more impressive. If it were anyone else who heard that Jin Wang wanted to divorce his wife, they would definitely be shocked and led astray by Jin Wang.
This time, not only did he deal with Jin wangfei and her daughter, but he also made them bleed a lot. Even if Jin Wang’s reputation was saved, it was still ruined by a lot. He was still very satisfied with the result.
When Jin Wang and Xiao hanzheng discussed the compensation, ruan Songling, who was standing at the side, finally recovered from her disbelief.
“Liang Yujun, you’re going to divorce me?” she asked Jin Wang, still in a daze.
She had never thought that one day, he would abandon her in public.
This time, Liang Yujun did not hide the disgust in his eyes. whether it’s your character or your way of doing things, how are you like a princess Consort? ”
“This King also didn’t expect you to be such a person, and even taught the first wife’s daughter to be so arrogant and vicious.”
“This Prince has been deceived by you in the past. Now that I know of your bad character, I naturally can not let you continue to be the princess.”
“Otherwise, how are you going to explain it to the people you’ve harmed? how are you going to explain it to the people?” he said in a righteous tone.
Ruan Songling took a few steps back, as if this was the first time he had met Liang Yujun.
How could he do this to her?
