Rebirth Era: After the Beautiful Sister-in-law Refuses to Open Business

With the evidence, Han Bailan had no choice but to admit it.

As a result, her sentence was increased by ten years on top of the three years she had served.

Life in prison is not easy, but with the development of the country, in addition to labor reform and ideological education, prisoners in prison not only have time to exercise, but are also organized to watch the news broadcast and educational interview programs.

On this day, it was time for the prison to organize prisoners to watch TV. At first, Han Bailan did not look at the TV screen, but lowered her eyelids, wondering what she was thinking about.

Suddenly, a familiar male voice came from the TV. She looked over involuntarily and saw that a talk show was being broadcast.

There are two people in the picture, one is a woman and the other is a man.

There was no doubt that the woman was the host of the show, and Han Bailan was stunned for a moment when she saw the handsome face of the man who had not been seen for many years but did not show much trace of time.

Richest man?

Song Qingbin is now the richest man...

After more than 20 years of marriage, the couple loved each other very much and never had a quarrel...

I have a son and a daughter, both of whom have grown up to be pillars of the country...

Listening to the host's questions and Song Qingbin's answers, Han Bailan felt a sharp pain in her heart. At the same time, the regret that had disappeared for many years surged towards her again!

What on earth had she done over the years…why had she failed to judge people correctly once or twice?

She used despicable means to push away the men introduced by her family, and the ones she pursued wholeheartedly were worse than the next, to the point that... to the point that now she not only has nothing, but is also in prison for reform.

With tears in her eyes, Han Bailan couldn't help but say, "He should be my man... I should be the woman he treats with all his heart and cherishes for his whole life..."

The prisoners sitting in front, behind, and around her couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.

Some even said: "Are you dreaming?"

Someone else spoke up: "That's right, 522, why don't you take a basin of water and look at yourself? How can the richest man look at you with such a shabby appearance?"

"If you ask me, she's not even worthy of carrying the shoes of the richest man!"

"The host said at the beginning of the show that he is a conscientious entrepreneur who earns a lot and gives back to society. He would not be interested in a vicious woman!"

"I know this. Mr. Song has done a lot of charity work over the years. When the country needs it, he donates money and materials. It's not an exaggeration to call him a conscientious entrepreneur."

"Mr. Song is good-looking and rich, and his wife must be very beautiful too. But someone is dreaming of eating swan meat. What a dream!"

The words around her ears were all mocking and sarcastic. Han Bailan might have been irritated. She stood up suddenly and said excitedly: "I am telling the truth. He was my boyfriend. It was me who was blinded by greed and proposed to break off the engagement with him... I was wrong..."

Meeting the strange looks from the prisoners around her, Han Bailan instantly came to her senses. She fell back into her seat, covered her face and cried out.

The prisoners sitting in front, behind, and around her all made a "tsk" sound at the same time.

"quiet!"

The stern voice of the prison staff suddenly rang out, and immediately all the prisoners sat up straight and remained silent.

……

It was late at night and Han Bailan tossed and turned on her bunk. She felt like a complete loser. She had a dream that would be very beneficial to her future. If she had just wiped her eyes more often when looking at men, she would not have ended up in her current situation.

As the saying goes, you should learn from your mistakes once, but what about her?

Since she knew that Zhao Jing was not a good person, she made the decision to divorce him. She made a lot of money with her own ability and opened several clothing stores. However, she fell hard again in the affairs of men.

If you don't want to remarry and just want to have fun to kill time, why would you be deceived?

Or if you keep a closer eye on your things, then even if you remarry, you won't end up with nothing.

Han Bailan regretted it deeply. She thought that if time could allow her to go back to the time when she and Song Qingbin were engaged, she would definitely treat him well, no longer have any involvement with Zhao Jing, and would not have a second marriage.

However, there are no assumptions in the world. She can't go back to the past, and she can't continue her relationship with Song Qingbin, and she can't be Song Qingbin's wife and become the wife of the richest man...

(Han Bailan's extra chapter ends)

Summer.

Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.

"Your Majesty, Nanny Fang from Ningren Palace is outside asking to see you!"

Yuanbao, the chief eunuch beside Emperor Wen Zhao, bowed and walked into the imperial study. He stopped three or four steps away from the imperial desk, bowed to his master, and said something in a particularly respectful manner.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Wen Zhao paused as he was reviewing the memorials, and then looked up at his chief eunuch: "Announce!" Then, he reviewed the memorial at hand and put down his pen, and saw Nanny Fang walking in from the door of the imperial study with her eyelids drooped.

"This old servant greets His Majesty. Long live the emperor!"

Standing in the middle of the imperial study, Nanny Fang knelt down to salute. Seeing this, Emperor Wen Zhao quickly raised his hand and said, "Madame, please stand up!" Then he asked, "Does the Empress Dowager have something to tell me?"

Nanny Fang got up from the ground, shook her head, and responded respectfully: "It was this old servant who made the initiative to ask the Emperor to move to Ningren Palace to persuade the Empress Dowager. If she doesn't eat well, I'm worried that the Empress Dowager's body won't be able to bear it!"

"I know!"

Emperor Wen Zhao nodded slightly, and after a moment, he said, "Madam, please go back first, I will be there soon!" Without giving it much thought, Emperor Wen Zhao knew why the empress dowager was like that, and it was when he thought of the reason that the monarch of Great Xia couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

He pressed his chest and murmured, "Aunt..." His face was pale and his forehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat. After a while, the sense of communication gradually dissipated, and Emperor Wen Zhao picked up the red pen again to approve the remaining two memorials.

It was because he didn't want to disappoint Zhan Beihou, the aunt he most respected for her teachings!

——Be a good emperor who works diligently and loves his people!

About half a quarter of an hour later, Emperor Wen Zhao stood up and walked around the imperial desk. He walked out of the imperial study and took the imperial sedan chair to Ningren Palace where the empress dowager lived.

"Your son pays respects to the Queen Mother, may you be blessed with good fortune and happiness!"

When he arrived at Ningren Palace, Emperor Wen Zhao first bowed to the empress dowager, and then sat on the mahogany chair brought by the palace maids.

"I have said more than once that you are the ruler of a country and have a lot of government affairs to deal with. You don't need to run to Ningren Palace every day, but you obviously didn't listen to me. If your aunt knew that you were slacking off in government affairs, she would be in great pain!"

When mentioning her sister, the Queen Mother couldn't help but feel tears welling up in her eyes.

Well, to be honest, the Queen Mother felt heartbroken when she thought about the sacrifices her family had made to protect her and her son, and to defend the Great Xia country and the Duke's Mansion.

She was the eldest daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo and was betrothed to the late emperor before she even reached the age of 15. At that moment, as a noble lady who was carefully raised by her family, she knew that from now on she and her family would be caught up in the struggle for imperial power.
