Chapter 224 Revenge from Prime Minister Jin

The Prime Minister's daughter Ye Shuhua and the Crown Prince were childhood sweethearts and were in love with each other, but the Crown Prince already had a fiancée, who was the only daughter of the Yong'an Marquis's family.

The Yong'an Marquis's Mansion holds a large number of troops, has tremendous power, and is very popular among the people. Fortunately, the Yong'an Marquis's generation has only one heir, and that's a girl.

In order to take back the military power, the emperor intends to arrange a marriage for the prince to provide him with more support.

The prince was granted a marriage, but the bride was not her. Ye Shuhua was heartbroken. With her status, she could have been the prince's consort, but the emperor did not like her. Of course, she could also marry the prince as a concubine, but how could the proud Ye Shuhua be willing to be a concubine?

The original owner was a student of the Prime Minister, a boy from a poor family, talented and of noble character. He had a fiancée before he became famous, and he had no intention of abandoning her even in high school.

But on the night of the prince's wedding, Ye Shuhua found the original owner and asked her to marry her. The original owner was naturally unwilling. Not to mention that she already had an engagement and would be married soon, and Ye Shuhua and the prince had an unclear relationship, and the original owner did not want to be cuckolded.

However, the prime minister used his power to coerce others and threatened the original owner with the blind old mother. The original owner was also a filial person and chose his mother between his fiancée and his mother.

The original owner married Ye Shuhua and took his fiancée Wei Qingyin as his concubine. The reason was that even after Ye Shuhua married the original owner, she would not let the original owner touch her. She wanted to remain a virgin for the prince.

But when Ye Shuhua saw how considerate the original owner was to Wei Qingyin, she became unhappy again and said that the original owner favored his concubine over his wife, and she gave Wei Qingyin a sterilizing soup when the original owner was away.

When the original owner came back, Wei Qingyin had found two bodies, mother and son, both dead.

Ye Shuhua was still drinking tea and appreciating flowers as if nothing had happened. Later, she even killed the original owner's other concubines, causing the original owner to have no children or grandchildren.

After the original owner died, Ye Shuhua rekindled her relationship with the prince and gave herself completely to him. Not only did she give birth to the prince's only son, but after the prince ascended the throne, she was named a noble concubine and finally became the empress dowager.

……

"Zhang Shan, I'm not discussing this with you. I'm telling you that you need to think about your mother and your future."

The prime minister looked at Zhang Shan with impatience. If this guy had no background, he would not have wanted to let his daughter marry such a man.

"Teacher, if I marry the eldest daughter, will I be letting Miss Wei down? I don't want to be that ungrateful person. Uncle Wei spent money and effort to allow me to come to the capital. I can betray him today. Aren't you afraid that I will abandon the eldest daughter in the same way in the future?"

"How dare you!" The prime minister's face darkened. As long as he was the prime minister, his daughter would never be abused.

"People's minds are fickle, teacher!"

If he changes his mind today, he can change his mind tomorrow. If the Prime Minister insists on having his own way, don't blame him in the future.

Thinking of his daughter Ye Shuhua, the prime minister firmly believed that as long as he was still around, Zhang Shan would not be able to cause any trouble.

"You and Hua'er will be getting married in three days. Go back and prepare well."

The prime minister's tone brooked no refusal.

When Zhang Shan got home, she saw Wei Qingyin standing at the door, looking out, "Shanlang, why did you come back so late today?"

Zhang Shan sighed, "Qingyin, the Prime Minister wants me to marry Miss Ye. I'm afraid I can't fulfill the promise between you and me."

Wei Qingyin was stunned for a moment, and her eyes immediately turned red. "How could this happen?"

"Qingyin, you are a good girl. It is me, Zhang Shan, who has let you down. You are talented and pretty, and I really cannot let you down."

"I……"

Although Wei Qingyin is the daughter of a merchant, she also has her own pride. Ye Shuhua is unwilling to be a concubine, and she is unwilling to do so too.

"If you are willing, I will recognize you as my sister and find you a loyal and reliable person. With me here, no one can bully you."

Wei Qingyin hesitated to speak, but finally reason overcame impulse and she nodded in agreement.

She Yuan had met Prime Minister Ye's legitimate daughter from afar. She was an extremely domineering woman. She would not give away anything she didn't want, even if it meant throwing it away.

If she insisted on marrying Zhang Shan as a concubine, death would be waiting for her, and her parents, brothers and sisters might also be implicated.

"Thank you very much, brother." He said this almost with tears in his eyes.

Zhang Shan also breathed a sigh of relief. Taking Wei Qingyin as a concubine was not a wise move. Fortunately, it had not come to that step yet.

Wei Qingyin likes the original owner, but Zhang Shan still hopes that she will choose herself rather than make a blind choice, otherwise she will be the one who suffers in the end.

I will be getting married in a few days. During that time, I will apply for a transfer and leave this place of trouble. But don't worry, before that, I will find a good place for you.

Zhang Shan asked the system to match Wei Qingyin with a lover. Apart from the original owner, she still had many choices. Zhang Shan picked a young talent for her and created an opportunity for the two of them the next day.

Wei Qingyin and Yu Bai spent a few days together and were very satisfied with each other. During this time, Zhang Shan married Ye Shuhua, but the couple didn't care much about the wedding, so it was a very quiet one.

Ye Shuhua's face was tense the whole time. She did not like Zhang Shan, but that did not mean she wanted her wedding to be like this. She was the daughter of a prime minister, why would Zhang Shan despise her?

"Miss?"

Ye Shuhua threw the red veil to the ground and stomped on it several times, but still felt unsatisfied.

"Shameless An Mengning stole my position as Crown Princess, which made me so embarrassed. Now I am married to her lover, but I am also treated so miserably. An Mengning, I will never forgive you!"

There are tens of thousands of men in the world, and Ye Shuhua failed to marry the prince. However, she chose the original owner instead of the rich boy. Naturally, it was because the Crown Princess liked the original owner, and she also wanted to stab the Crown Princess in the heart.

Ye Shuhua smashed everything that could be smashed in the room, but Zhang Shan still didn't show up for a long time.

"Where's Zhang Shan?"

"My son-in-law drank too much and is now sleeping in the study."

Ye Shuhua was so angry that she slapped the maid, "Bitch!"

How dare he treat her like this on their wedding night? She will definitely not let Zhang Shan have an easy time.

In Ye Shuhua's fantasy, Zhang Shan should be begging her, trying to please her, and wagging his tail to her for mercy, like a dog.

Although she didn't plan to consummate her marriage with Zhang Shan, it didn't mean that Zhang Shan would leave her alone.

She was already prepared. When Zhang Shan came to see her, she would refuse him entry, make him sleep at the door, and humiliate him.

"Go to the study and call Zhang Shan to come to me. If he doesn't come, I will skin you alive!"

The maid was brought by Ye Shuhua herself. Knowing Ye Shuhua's character very well, she crawled to the study to call Zhang Shan, but she couldn't even enter the study and could only shout outside.

Zhang Shan did not go to the main courtyard or the study all night, but was in the study of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, the prime minister's mortal enemy.

"Ye Wenxuan, this old villain, really made the wrong choice of person and brought himself a powerful enemy." Marquis Yong'an stroked his beard with emotion. Thinking of Zhang Shan's vicious look, he, who was used to seeing life and death on the battlefield, felt his back chilled.

"The hearts of scholars are all black!"

He poured himself another cup of tea and found that it had gone cold.

On the second day after her wedding, Zhang Shan received a transfer order to serve as a prefect in the bitterly cold northwestern region.

"What? Ganzhou?"

Ye Shuhua never expected that Zhang Shan would be so cruel as to exile himself, "How could Daddy agree to this?"

"The master only found out about it this morning." The maid felt sad. What was the difference between that place and exile?

"Who is it? Could it be the prince?"

Is the prince jealous?

With such a guess in mind, Ye Shuhua felt sweet in her heart, but when she thought about going to Ganzhou with Zhang Shan, the unlucky guy, Ye Shuhua could not smile anymore.

"What did Daddy say? Does he really want me to follow Zhang Shan to that damn place in Ganzhou?"

"Your Majesty has made the decision, and I cannot change it."

That means we're going together. Ye Shuhua's face twisted, "Can we not go?"

The maid didn't dare to speak. The master's intention was naturally to go together. Although he felt sorry for Ye Shuhua, he cared more about his own reputation.

Ye Shuhua found that she had not lived a comfortable life since she married into the Zhang family. She felt neglected on her wedding night, and now she had to follow Zhang Shan to Ganzhou to take up a post. Moreover, there was a "sister-in-law" at home who was about to get married, and she, as the eldest sister-in-law, needed to take care of things.

Ye Shuhua didn't want to help, but Wei Qingyin was marrying from the Zhang family. If she didn't show up and tell her sisters from her natal family, her father would come and give her some advice.

She can be willful, but she cannot bring trouble to the reputation of the Ye family. Ye Shuhua let Wei Qingyin take care of it with a gloomy face, and she had to do it beautifully.

She herself wanted to just do it perfunctorily, but Prime Minister Ye knew her character and specially sent a nanny to help her, and he wanted her to do it to perfection.

Ye Shuhua felt as disgusted as if he had eaten a fly for giving Wei Qingyin face for no reason.

Wei Qingyin finally let out her anger when she saw this. She was originally going to marry her sworn brother, but Ye Shuhua intervened and forced her to marry someone else. It was not because she was still thinking about her sworn brother, but because no one would feel comfortable if faced with such a thing.

Now that Ye Shuhua is unhappy, Wei Qingyin is happy. She happily marries her lover and takes away the makeup that Ye Shuhua "gave" her.

After Wei Qingyin got married, Zhang Shan sent her mother to the hospital to treat her eyes. Secondly, Ganzhou was not a good place. Her mother was not mobile and was old, so it was not suitable for long-distance travel.

When leaving the capital, Ye Shuhua was extremely reluctant and even wrote a letter to the prince for help, but the prince was powerless. What excuse do you have to separate a young couple?

The journey to Ganzhou was not smooth. There were constant robbers on the road. All the people Ye Shuhua brought with him died, and their money was also robbed. In the end, the young couple was left with only their office documents and a donkey cart.

"Wuuu, wuuu, I want to go home, I want to go home..." Zhang Shan didn't care how Ye Shuhua cried, he drove the donkey cart steadily to Ganzhou.

During the journey, Ye Shuhua kept making trouble, but Zhang Shan didn't tolerate her. After taking her to Ganzhou, she ignored her and could not let her go back to the capital even though she had powerful connections.

While governing Ganzhou, Zhang Shan was corresponding with people in the capital, and her cooperation partner was still the Yong'an Marquis Mansion. Don't think that after the legitimate daughter of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion became the Crown Princess, she would wholeheartedly become the Crown Prince's hand. The Emperor and the Crown Prince wanted to seize the military power.

After handing over their military power, only death awaits them.

Of course, Zhang Shan is not a kind person. In addition to cooperating with Marquis Yong'an, he also has connections with princes other than the crown prince, and his main goal is to cast a wide net and catch more fish.

Thanks to everyone's efforts, the prime minister fell in the second year after Zhang Shan arrived in Ganzhou. Under the attack from many parties, the prime minister was able to hold on for so long, which was considered to be quite capable.

Zhang Shan worked for three years, improved Ganzhou's economy, and retired with the gray-haired Ye Shuhua back to Beijing.

When she returned to the capital, Ye Shuhua's first thought was to complain to her father and demand that Zhang Shan be killed. She had suffered a lot in the past three years in Ganzhou, living in a cowshed, eating grass roots, and was almost bitten to death by a wolf. She had gone from being an old woman with gray hair in her prime.

But the prime minister had passed away long ago, and even the Ye family had no one who could support the family. The Ye family was no longer the same Ye family.

"how come?"

"How could my father..."

Ye Shuhua's eyes rolled back and she fainted. Her only hope to survive was to complain to Prime Minister Ye and then kill Zhang Shan, but now she had no backer.

After Zhang Shan returned to the capital, he rested for half a day, took his mother, whose eyes had been cured, home, had a meal with Wei Qingyin and Yu Bai and his wife, and then went to the Censorate to take up his post the next day.

When Zhang Shan was working diligently, the prince heard that Ye Shuhua had returned. He couldn't bear the longing and came to Zhang's house to find her. The two of them became entangled with each other in a confused manner.

When Zhang Shan brought Shangguan home for dinner, they found them lying together in dishevel.

As a result, the prince was impeached, and Zhang Shan, the victim, fearing to offend the prince, quickly divorced Ye Shuhua. Back then, Ye Shuhua took all her dowry to Ganzhou, but it was robbed by bandits. Now that she was divorced, she could not take anything away except the divorce documents.

Ye Shuhua could only look for the prince, but her current maternal appearance made her look older than the prince's wet nurse. Although the prince still had some affection for her, he decided not to marry her into his backyard.

Ye Shuhua was despised and the Ye family did not acknowledge her. Finally, she had no choice but to go to the temple. Before leaving, she cried and begged the prince to give her a ride. Her original intention was to make the prince soften his heart, but she did not expect that the two of them met bandits on the road and were both hacked to death.

The prince died, and the emperor was grief-stricken. The emperor really loved the prince and paved the way for him. Now that his favorite son was dead, the emperor was furious. Millions of people were killed. Bandits were suppressed in various places. From a distance, smoke was coming out of every mountaintop.

The Ye family had been on a downward spiral without its prime minister, and now it had been ruined by Ye Shuhua. All nine clans went to see the prime minister.

"Ye Shuhua is such a disaster. I should not have given birth to her in the first place." The former prime minister's wife fainted from anger.

The others didn't have a good look towards Ye Shuhua either. If she hadn't died long ago, she would have been bitten to death by them now.

But no matter how much they hated him, they were powerless. If the king wanted his subjects to die, they had to die. They could only go to the underworld to "argue" with Ye Shuhua again.

The crown prince had no children, and the emperor was unable to make his grandson the crown prince. In the end, he raised his other sons like a poisonous insect, and the poisoned sons eventually backfired on him, causing him to die with his eyes open.

The fight between the princes did not implicate the common people. The local officials were still working hard to complete the bandit suppression mission issued by the emperor and had no time to pay attention to the fight between the princes.

This time the transition of imperial power was extremely bumpy, but it was also the only time that the power transition did not harm the people. Except for the crown prince, each of the previous emperor's 18 sons had been emperor, and Zhang Shan did not fool them.

Marquis Yong'an said, you didn't fool them, but you fooled me. Every time an emperor ascended the throne, he was the first to be targeted. In the end, he could only obediently submit the military command to report his safety, otherwise he would be offline faster than the emperor.

The former Crown Princess An Mengning spent her whole life alone, never leaving the imperial mausoleum, but she still heard from others about Zhang Shan's recent situation, such as a promotion and salary increase, a beautiful wife and concubines, and two children...
