First wife's original manuscript

Chapter 48

Zeng Rou's two months of busy work in Zhaodi was to win over the people of Zhaodi. If Li Yuxin hadn't shot and wounded Zhao Wang, Zeng Rou would have no chance to do this. Zeng Rou's position as Concubine Zhao is unbreakable.

Unless Zeng Rou died, even if King Zhao didn't like Zeng Rou, he couldn't abolish Zeng Rou's position as princess.

Ever since King Zhao woke up, Zeng Rou took his son to visit him. King Zhao had a sickly pale face, but he was very concerned about Gu Tingrui, and he was very interested in guiding Gu Tingrui on how to deal with Zhao's affairs.

Zhao Wang told Gu Tingrui that the governance methods were based on his experience of more than ten years, and Zeng Rou could not hear any bad intentions of Zhao Wang.

It's just that Zhao Wang looked at Zeng Rou with a ray of guard that was too strong to be dispelled. Although he was very gentle towards Zeng Rou, his guard became more and more serious as Zeng Rou's reputation became more and more famous. Wang often asked Gu Tingrui to go to his side, sometimes leaving Gu Tingrui to live in his yard. ,

Zeng Rou knew that it was Zhao Wang who wanted to separate their mother and son, fearing that Zeng Rou would have too much influence on Gu Tingrui.

Coincidentally, Zeng Rou also wanted Gu Tingrui to feel what independence is. If Zhao Wang can successfully divorce and make the relationship between their mother and son cold, then Zeng Rouquan will not have Gu Tingrui as a son. She brought Gu Tingrui to this point. It can be regarded as worthy of the original Zeng Rou.

Under Zhao Wang's education, Gu Tingrui became more and more stable, but he was as close to Zeng Rou as ever, and even trusted Zeng Rou more than before.

Knowing that Zeng Rou was going to negotiate with General Zhuge Yun to resolve the dispute between Zhao Di and the Great Xia Dynasty, Gu Tingrui couldn't help running over to stop Zeng Rou, hence the mother-son conversation above.

"Little Ruirui, don't worry."

Zeng Rou squatted down, faced his son face to face, hugged him into his arms, and said in a low voice: "In my heart, no one is more important than you, neither your father nor Zhuge Yun, mother will not throw away for anyone. Let me down!"

"Mother, be careful all the way, my son is waiting for you to come back!"

Gu Tingrui's eyes were red, and his fists were clenched tightly. If he grew up faster, if he was stronger, if Zhao Di was stronger, he would not have to send his biological mother to Zhuge Yun himself...

Gu Tingrui watched as Zeng Rou got into the carriage, and the guards of Prince Zhao's Mansion escorted the carriage out of Prince Zhao's Mansion.

"Don't worry, she knows how to cherish herself better than you. I never saw your mother suffer!"

Mrs. Tuobatai wore a sequoia dress as usual, but she could already see a trace of fatigue and oldness between her brows. In order to heal Zhao Wang and study the indigenous version of penicillin, Mrs. Tuobatai can be said to have exhausted all her resources. Energy, half of her decades of skill were used to open up Gu Tingrui's blood, and the other half was used on her son... Internal energy can be regenerated, but it is very slow. Mrs. Tuobatai's dantian is now empty, so she She looks more like an old lady than before!
Gu Tingrui drooped his head, his biological mother was too good, Zhuge Yun would let her go?He obviously has no confidence in it!
"Only the father mistook pearls for fish eyes." Gu Tingrui murmured.

"Your mother used to show up occasionally, but now... the previous difficulties and hardships have polished her to shine." Mrs. Tuoba took Gu Tingrui's hand, "She doesn't need you to worry, if you want to protect your mother , must become stronger, as for your father... Didn't Li Yuxin say that there is no distinction between right and wrong in love, in the end it depends on feeling, maybe your father likes to pamper Yumu."

Gu Tingrui heard the shouts outside the palace, "His Royal Highness is a thousand years old." "Your Highness, Caomin wishes you a smooth journey." "Your Highness, Zhao Di will never forget your kindness."

"His Royal Highness..."

Gu Tingrui broke free from the hand of Mrs. Tai Kaiba, and ran out of the palace. He raised his eyes and saw that the carriage that Zeng Rou was riding was struggling forward among the crowd. The people of Zhaodi were kneeling on both sides of the wide street, and they kowtowed goodbye to Princess Zhao with tears , the sincere and convincing look in their eyes is unprecedented...

The people's hearts are available, this is what my mother said the people's hearts are available!
Gu Tingrui suddenly felt a sense of pride, the person who was worshiped by everyone was his mother!He is proud of his mother.

The shouts of the people shook the entire Zhao people. They are not jealous, but Princess Zhao is indeed worthy of the worship of the people. It is recognized in Zhao that without Princess Zhao, there would be no Zhao land today. It is Princess Zhao who saved Zhao who was caught in the plague. The people of the land were also advocated by Princess Zhao to negotiate with General Daxia.

General Zhuge Yun is as fierce as a tiger on the battlefield, but sometimes as cunning as a fox. Few people can change Zhuge Yun's mind. Except for Zhao Wang, no one in Zhaodi's senior management dares to face Zhugeyun. Everyone knows that Zhaodi This is not the best time to start a war with Zhuge Yun.

For a woman to bear such a heavy responsibility, the nobles in Zhao feel ashamed, but they have nothing to do. At the same time, they also believe in Princess Zhao!

I don't know when, Princess Zhao has become the one who solves their problems!At some point, Princess Zhao's opinion is more important than King Zhao's.

It should be said that Zeng Rou generously spent all the gold and silver accumulated by the Gu family for hundreds of years, which played a decisive role. This money and benefits prevented the Zhao family from losing too much in the flu, and they had interests with Zeng Rou's mother and son. , Their official positions were appointed by Gu Tingrui, and the benefits they obtained were ceded by Gu Tingrui.

As a result, the prominent Zhao family inevitably gathered around Princess Zhao's mother and son. Slowly, Zeng Rou gathered the families that were hostile to their mother and son to her side, and reorganized the messy ruling class in Zhao Di. A series of laws were promulgated through the mouth of Gu Tingrui.

When Zeng Rou did these things, she made the decision after careful consideration. I have to say that Zhao Land is a very suitable soil, because Zhao Land does not have as many and deeper persistence as the Great Xia Dynasty, and the people of Zhao Land are simple and kind. In Zeng Rou's view, Zhao's feudal system is not perfect, and Zhao's is more like a joint governance between various families.It's just that the Gu family has been in business for many years and is the most powerful.

Zhaodi is just a vassal state, so there are no six yamen, so Zeng Rou's resistance to enforce the law is much smaller. With the law, it can also let the brave people of Zhaodi understand that the law is more important than human feelings, and it is to restrain their words and deeds essential criteria.

Zeng Rou didn't intend to eat a fat man, as long as the law was established, and as the Zhao land grew stronger, the law would be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, then there would always be some benefits for future generations.

When Zeng Rou's mother and son had the highest prestige and King Zhao was convalescing, it was most appropriate to enforce the law. Now everyone in Zhao will say that there are laws to follow, enforcement must be strict, and violations must be punished!
Zeng Rou used her own professional knowledge to plant a seed in the ancient soil. As for whether it grew into a big tree or died halfway, Zeng Rou didn't care. She told Gu Tingrui that time is the test of the law Standard, Zeng Rou once said proudly, I have come, I have seen, I have conquered!
As for whether people in later generations scold her or praise her, it has no influence on Zeng Rou at this time.

The people's pursuit of Princess Zhao also shocked the convalescing King Zhao. Li Yuxin, who was forcibly ordered to serve King Zhao, said with a smile: "There are many people who worship Princess Zhao. The concubine congratulates the prince for marrying a famous concubine. A good wife!"

After Zhao Wang woke up for some reason, he strongly asked Li Yuxin to serve him. Mrs. Tuobatai had no choice but to let Li Yuxin move to Zhao Wang's side. Became a slave, as a real concubine instructing her,

Li Yuxin is not in good health after the miscarriage, and after being tormented by King Zhao, she looks even thinner. Sometimes Li Yuxin will take advantage of Madam Tuoba's absence, and respond to King Zhao's "torture" with sarcasm. Of course, if Madam Tai hears , Li Yuxin will be punished by her.

Zhao Wang looked at Li Yuxin, who was thin and sallow, with heartache, "Xin'er, do we have to torture each other?"

Li Yuxin forced a smile, "Forget it, my lord, no matter how much I am dissatisfied, I will lose my temper in front of the princess. I can't fight her, I can't compete with her, and even my ambition is not as good as her! I came to Here, I just want to find a man who can give me glory and wealth, who can pamper me, care for me, love me, and love me. Princess Zhao...she wants to change...change a lot of things, establish order, She will leave something for future generations, and I... will not even appear in the history books."

"Xin'er." King Zhao raised his body and asked, "Do you know Zeng Rou?"

Li Yuxin shook her head, stepped forward to support Zhao Wang, "My lord, Zhao land will be as prosperous and strong without you."

Zhao Wang pushed Li Yuxin away, and said angrily: "Bastard, this king is the master of Zhao Di!"

Li Yuxin was staggered by the push, and smiled bitterly: "Yes, the master who is recuperating in bed! My lord, it's actually pretty good for the two of us to live like this, because you are not worthy of Zeng Rou!"

Her words hit Zhao Wang very hard. In Zhao Wang's heart, he sacrificed a lot to marry Zeng Rou and gave Zeng Rou status and rights. How could he not be worthy of Zeng Rou now?Zhao Wang was designated as the successor of Zhao Land since he was a child. He has traveled smoothly all the way. Although there are occasional twists and turns, his experience is mostly smooth.

But now all of this has disappeared, and Zeng Rou, who has been relying on him for a living, has become the belief of the people of Zhao. The huge contrast made Zhao Wang unacceptable for a while.

"you shut up!"

Although King Zhao was recovering from his illness, his physical condition was much better than Li Yuxin's. He grabbed Li Yuxin and said with red eyes, "You think this king is not good enough for Zeng Rou?"

"This king let Zeng Rou seize the opportunity to buy people's hearts... Who is responsible for these? Who are they all?"

King Zhao wished Li Yuxin could eat her alive, and locked her arms with his hands, which could almost crush her bones. "It's you! Ever since I met you, everything has changed."

Li Yuxin once admired Zhao Wang's strong and tall body, and she also felt that she felt very safe in Zhao Wang's arms. Zhao Wang's chest was broad and thick, and Li Yuxin was not afraid of any wind and rain on his chest... But when Li Yuxin met the furious Zhao Wang Only then did she realize that under Zhao Wang's tall body, she could only linger on, with no power to fight back.

The uncles are not always gentle and considerate and love Lolita. When the uncles are angry, they can make the little wife's life worse than death.

Li Yuxin saw Zhao Wang's ferocious face venting his anger, and seemed to understand something. Zhao Wang once treated Zeng Rou like this... Zhao Wang's current name, Zeng Rou, is not because he misses Zeng Rou, but...he just loves Zeng Rou. Galloping on the body, conquering...

No wonder Zeng Rou insisted on returning to Zhao Land!
Ten years, Zeng Rou has suffered for ten years... This kind of pain cannot be told to anyone, this kind of injury is the most painful for women!
If she were Zeng Rou, it wouldn't make King Zhao feel better.

Li Yuxin was already a little numb from the pain, this is retribution!She was experiencing the pain that Zeng Rou had suffered, and she finally realized how Zhao Wang had been a 'good husband' for ten years and was strong in a modern marriage!Rape can also be convicted, even if it is not... This is domestic violence, sex!abuse...

How much does she want to go back to when it all started?She didn't know Zhao Wang, or in her eyes, Zhao Wang was a stable, kind, tolerant, wise, successful and powerful uncle.

Zhao Wang let out his breath, and the stormy movement slowly stopped. After the lingering rhyme, Zhao Wang saw Li Yuxin under him clearly, his expression changed drastically, and he hugged Li Yuxin who was covered in bruises, "Xiner, Xiner , I... I didn't know it was you!"

"I thought... I thought it was someone else, Xiner, I didn't want to hurt you."

Li Yuxin felt dizzy, she didn't want to hear anything, she smiled lightly, "It's okay, just be happy!"

King Zhao carefully administered medicine to Li Yuxin, and Li Yuxin had been obediently at the mercy of King Zhao, and said softly, "As long as you are still King Zhao, you still have a chance. The prince will take good care of you, and you are also the king of Zhao!"

From that day on, Li Yuxin never dared to provoke King Zhao again, and served King Zhao carefully and obediently, taking care of his food and daily life, and she dared not say a single word that was unnecessary.

When Zhao Wang faced others, he was as calm and confident as before, but when he faced Li Yuxin alone, sometimes he would burst out the tyranny, stinginess, and the dark side of human nature buried deep in his heart.

As long as King Zhao hears what Princess Zhao has done for Zhao, what he has won, or hears that Gu Tingrui's performance is very popular with Zhao, he will torture Li Yuxin to vent his anger, although he will say sorry to Li Yuxin every time he wakes up , but next time he will vent his negative energy on Li Yuxin as well.

Li Yuxin admires Zeng Rou very much now, ten years?How did she survive?Zhao Wang's pros and cons can drive people crazy!

Li Yuxin began to tamper with Zhao Wang's diet when he couldn't find foreign aid to ask for help.

Concubine Zhao left Zhaodi to negotiate with Zhuge Yun. Mrs. Tuobatai became Gu Tingrui's bodyguard. Although she would still come to visit King Zhao, she would leave after feeling the pulse and leaving the soup. Li Yuxin took advantage of Mrs. Tuobatai Inadvertently, he slowly got some medicine for mental decline and gave it to King Zhao.

At the same time, Li Yuxin never gave up the idea of ​​leaving King Zhao's Mansion. One day, she took advantage of King Zhao's nap and escaped from the courtyard, and escaped from King Zhao's Mansion... But she was caught by King Zhao's guards before she escaped very far. went back.

"Xin'er, I love you so much, why are you willing to leave me?"

Zhao Wang stroked Li Yuxin's hair, and said softly: "You ruined my foundation, do you want to leave me now?"

"Xin'er, you are the king's concubine, and the king will let you see what happens when you run away from your concubine."

King Zhao locked her in a small black room surrounded by walls, and ordered the strictest mother in Zhaodi to teach her a lesson. After three days of torture, Li Yuxin never dared to think of running away again.She knew what kind of woman Zhao Wang liked, and she began to concentrate on trying to please Zhao Wang and take care of her body... Li Yuxin obediently leaned on Zhao Wang to see who could survive whom?
Zhao Wang's health improved, Gu Tingrui didn't care about power and position, and handed over the political affairs of Zhao Di to Zhao Wang, but it was a pity that Zhao Wang didn't realize it until he got started again. In just three months, Zhao Di's political affairs...he didn't handle it very well. By the way, I was at a loss for the new positions of Zhao's subordinates a few times, and Gu Tingrui would explain it to the side... Zhao Wang felt that he couldn't step down, but he had to admit that under the new system, Zhao Wang treated his subordinates and Zhao's subordinates very well. Precious control is stricter, which is very conducive to Zhao Wang's governance of Zhao land.

Concubine Zhao's reform of Zhao's land, the establishment of various administrative departments and directors, made Zhao's land more like a country, rather than just a vassal state that split the soil and sealed off the border.

Zhao Wang originally planned to set up these departments after winning the world, but Zeng Rou made them out in advance and won the praise of Zhao Di, Zhao Wang felt very uncomfortable.

For King Zhao to get familiar with the Executive Yuan, it will take some time to re-establish King Zhao's authority... What makes Li Yuxin despair is that Zeng Rou will not give King Zhao too much time!
In Hedong County, the general Zhuge Yun was wearing armor, and led his army flags to the front of Princess Zhao's carriage, "I didn't expect that Her Royal Highness would come to Hedong County in person!"

Zeng Rou opened the curtain of the carriage, and smiled back: "Someone wants to die, can I not come?"
