The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Chapter 146: A Commoner Woman's Revenge on the Powerful and the Rich (End)

Half a month later, Ying Wan'er was sentenced to death in public for multiple crimes, and Prince Rui personally supervised the execution.

Even though Ying Wan'er was already kneeling on the execution ground, she was still cursing Shui Zhizi, scolding Shui Zhizi for still having evil intentions towards Li Chuan and scolding Shui Zhizi for snatching Li Chuan away.

Ying Wan'er said that she was on guard against so many people, but she forgot to guard against someone who should have died long ago.

King Rui looked at Qi Yu in the crowd, who was as angry as the common people, and suddenly felt that his son was not bad in that he would not lose his mind for a woman.

But think about it carefully, is this really just a matter of one man or one woman?

At the moment the knife fell, the onlookers subconsciously closed their eyes.

Only a woman in plain clothes did not even blink from beginning to end. She watched the whole process intently.

A month later, Corning Building and Mingyuan Hall reopened under the name of the royal family.

War King Zheng Hong was present in person at the opening ceremony. He told the people that nothing in Mingyuan Hall would change, from the low prices for medical consultations to the tradition of providing free medical consultations every seven days.

In the future, Mingyuan Hall will be opened in every place in Yan Dynasty, and from then on he will respect everyone's life, regardless of their background.

But this time, the Minister of War who had always been beside the King of War did not show up.

Moreover, from then on, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War no longer followed the King of War Zheng Hong around like his right-hand man as before.

Later, some people commented that Li Chuanjiang, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of War, had run out of talent.

Although his quick promotion in the past was due to his wife, no one denies that Li Chuan himself is very talented.

But ever since his wife got into trouble, Li Chuan has never shown any outstanding qualities again.

The position of Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War became the pinnacle of his career.

Moreover, the reason why he was able to remain in the position of Vice Minister of War was because the emperor who ascended the throne later, the former King of War, felt guilty towards him.

Later, Li Chuan lost interest in state affairs and spent every day in Mingyuan Hall treating his illness.

What disease is it treating? Amnesia.

He went to see Wu Kai every day to treat his amnesia. In order to treat his amnesia, he tried acupuncture, taking medicine, banging his head against the wall and other methods that others could and could not think of.

But it didn't work, his memory never recovered.

Later he seemed to give up hope and stopped thinking about curing his amnesia.

But he still stayed in Mingyuan Hall and Kangning Building all day, chasing Wu Kai and Dazhuang to ask about Shui Zhizi's past.

But he found that no one knew about what happened before Shui Zhizi started her business. Shui Zhizi had never told anyone about the Li family's past.

Apart from those two remote graves, he was never able to find any trace of his family throughout his life.

What is most unexpected is that the once most unfathomable King of War turned out to be the most benevolent emperor in the history of the Yan Dynasty after he ascended the throne.

He was the emperor who most insisted that princes who broke the law should be punished the same as common people, and the emperor who was most concerned about the common people.

He made major changes to the laws of the Yan Dynasty and severely punished the powerful who relied on their status to oppress the common people.

He relaxed the conditions for common people to file complaints with the emperor and set up an institution specifically for the protection of common people, so that common people have a place to voice their grievances and seek redress.

During his reign, he never arranged marriages for the children of any official family, and never interfered in the marriages of any court officials.

Everyone praised him as a good emperor.

Only he himself knew that no matter how well he did, it was too late.

Many years later, Yan Chao opened an embroidery workshop with excellent business and reputation. What was special was that there were two very capable owners in this workshop.

That year, the emperor went south to understand the people's situation. When he passed by an embroidery workshop that was distributing free clothes, he took a curious look inside.

At this glance, he saw the woman he had been thinking about day and night. The sincere and bright smile on the woman's face was something he had never seen in all those years.

With red eyes, he wanted to go in, but was stopped by the gray-haired King Rui.

"Your Majesty, the late emperor said that one life should be exchanged for another, but I still feel that this is not right. It clearly took several lives to exchange for Ying Wan'er's life. That girl was able to escape unscathed, all thanks to her own ability and luck. She may not have such ability and luck again.

It's fine now, let's not disturb her, right?"

"it is good."

After a long time, Zheng Hong's trembling voice was heard.

A new task appeared in front of Shui Zhizi again.

The identity of the client this time is also quite special. Before the client was born, their continent was in the midst of war, and the kings and princes of various countries fought for power and occupied territories, which eventually led to the establishment of many countries.

Among them, there are three equally powerful countries, occupying the east, west and south of the continent respectively. They are Dongmeng, Xilin and Nangao according to the territory they occupy.

The north was occupied by other small countries, which refused to give in to each other and the wars continued. At the same time, it also became a tool for the other three major powers to fight for and use.

These three major powers often use the small country in the north to check and balance the other two countries.

The client was the eldest princess of Dongmeng Kingdom. The reason why she was the eldest princess was not because of her age or achievements.

She was named the eldest princess by her father when she was just born.

At the beginning, Xilin wanted to dominate the world and suppress the other two countries, so it joined forces with several small countries in the north to attack Dongmeng first.

Because Dong Meng Shangwen has always been at a disadvantage in the war with Xilin.

But it happened that on the day the client was born, Dongmeng achieved its first major victory since the war with Xilin.

From then on, Xilin was defeated repeatedly, and finally forced to cede land in exchange for peace. Dongmeng became the most powerful of the three major countries.

Therefore, the client was regarded as a symbol of victory by Dong Meng since birth, and was deeply loved by the emperor, court officials, and the people.

The client grew up to be eighteen years old under the attention and care of everyone.

At this time, the emperor, the father who doted on the client, and the queen mother had already passed away one after another.

The client's elder brother has been on the throne for two years, but this has not affected the client's life and status.

However, Xilin and Dongmeng fought a great war back then. Xilin united several countries in the north, and Dongmeng also relied on the power of a small northern country, Lai.

However, as time went on, Lai State, which had once helped Dong Meng, no longer had the advantage in the struggle with the small countries in the north.

So they wanted to use Dong Meng's reputation to help themselves, and when the client was 18 years old, they asked Dong Meng to marry his princess to Lai State.

Considering the client's status in the eyes of court officials and the people, this matter had nothing to do with her.

But the client's father had few children, and apart from the client, there was only one illegitimate princess, Shui Xian'er, who was two years younger than the client and of marriageable age.

Shui Xian'er had been weak since childhood, and everyone was worried that she might not be able to survive in the north where the land was barren, supplies were scarce, and wars were frequent.
