Top white, rich and beautiful, the princess is reborn and the revenge story
Chapter 20 Punishing Liuli
Liuli looked at Zhao Yuanqing pleadingly, tears in her eyes, but Zhao Yuanqing remained unmoved and said,
"Liuli, you and I grew up together. Although you were a slave, I never treated you badly. But how did you treat me?
You drugged me in Yuzhen Temple, knocking me unconscious, and then tricked me into jumping into the lake in the Peony Garden, attempting to tie me to Cui Hao. You know how tragic the fate of a woman with a bad reputation is. Even if I had married Cui Hao, I wouldn't have had a good ending! You're truly vicious!
As a slave, you are unfaithful! As a woman, you are not kind! If I let you go today, I don't know how many women will suffer in the future, so I will never forgive you!
Don’t you like taking medicine? Today I will give it to you! Don’t you love men? I will throw you into a pile of men and let you love them to your heart’s content!
"Meng Jiu, force-feed her with knockout drugs and muscle softening powder, then sell her to the lowest-class brothel in the mines. Never let her out again!"
"Yes!"
Meng Jiu and the others were also very indignant. Liuli actually dared to murder the princess in this way. She deserved to be cut into pieces!
Liuli was so scared that she begged for mercy desperately, but unfortunately she could only stammer and make some unpleasant noises, and it was impossible to hear what she said.
Meng Jiu gave her medicine and she fell into coma after a while. Then he put her in a sack, took her out of the back door of the princess's mansion, and headed to the mine in the suburbs of Chang'an City.
Meng Jiu found a mine deep in the mountains. It was a place where few people went and not even a bird could fly out unless someone led the way.
"Hey, are you buying women here?"
The guard's eyes lit up, "Where is the woman?"
Meng Jiu poured Liuli out of the sack and said, "A criminal slave who offended her master and wanted to sell her."
The guard picked up Liuli and said, "She looks okay, but she has tattoos on her face. It seems she is indeed a criminal slave."
Liuli struggled desperately, but the guard was not polite and slapped her in the face, "Behave yourself!"
Liuli's face was covered with tears. She desperately reached out to Meng Jiu, mumbling something. Meng Jiu ignored her. He should have thought about the ending today on the first day of betraying the princess.
The guard tore off Liuli's clothes and nodded with satisfaction, "She's quite delicate and tender. How much do you want?"
Meng Jiu shook his head. "I don't want money. I only have two requests: don't let her have an easy time, and don't let her escape."
"no problem!"
Meng Jiu left without looking back. Liuli struggled desperately, but it was useless. She was carried into the mine by the guards and never came out again.
While being tortured in the Wuzao mine, Liuli saw some things in a half-dream and half-awake state. She saw Zhao Yuanqing being captured in Yuzhen Temple, and after her reputation was ruined, she married Cui Hao, and she also followed him to Cui's house, and later she became Cui Hao's concubine. Zhao Yuanqing went to Wumeng State a year later, and she was the only one in charge in Cui's family. But not long after, Cui Hao married a new wife, and the new wife disliked her and fed her a cup of poisoned wine.
Liuli didn't know whether it was a dream or something else, but she was pleasantly surprised to think that she could return to the princess through this dream!
She bit her finger, wrote her identity on her skirt, and showed it to the guard. The guard asked her, "Are you from Princess Shanzhen's mansion?"
Liuli nodded and gestured, "When I return to the Princess's Mansion, I will definitely thank you profusely!"
The guard laughed, picked up Liuli and said, "Let's go!"
Liuli thought she was really going to be released, and she cried with joy. She was tortured every day here, and her life was not a human life at all. Today she was finally going to be released!
Unexpectedly, the guard carried her to an abandoned mine and threw her down. "You can talk to your princess in your next life!"
“Woo! Bang!”
Liuli fell heavily to the bottom of the mine, blood splattered everywhere. After struggling for a long time, he finally died from the gnawing of rats.
Before she died, the thought that echoed in her mind was that if she had the chance to do it again, she would never betray the princess again. Whether in that dream or in reality, she would not have a good ending if she betrayed the princess.
Unfortunately, it's too late. There is no "if" in life, and she won't be given a chance to do it again.
As for Zhao Yuanqing, she went to the palace and told the queen about Liuli's confession. The two agreed not to arrest Yang Qiu first, but to keep an eye on her and catch the person behind her.
In the next few days, several groups of people came to visit Zhao Yuanqing. They actually came to her to buy spices.
It turned out that Zhao Yuanqing had bought up all the spices from the Hu merchants in Chang'an, leaving the city with no spices left. This had the fawning shrews terribly worried. What were they going to do if they couldn't buy spices? They should go find Princess Shanzhen! She had all the spices in Chang'an!
Just like that, someone who had a good relationship with Zhao Yuanqing came to buy spices.
After the group left, Zhao Yuanqing laughed heartily. It was like trying to plant flowers but they didn't bloom, but accidentally planting willows brought them a forest of trees! Isn't this a money-making opportunity that fell from the sky? All the spices in Chang'an City are in her hands. She's the only one who can handle this spice business. She can sell them at whatever price she wants!
Zhao Yuanqing called everyone together and asked, "I'm planning to open a spice shop. Do you have any ideas for selling spices at a good price? I'll reward anyone who offers useful suggestions!"
A big reward always attracts brave men. Soon someone said, "Your Highness, some spices are more valuable than gold, while others are as cheap as dirt. First, we need to classify the spices, separating the precious ones from the common ones, and the high-quality ones from the average ones. Only then can we set the prices!"
"Okay, reward!"
The servant brought a plate of copper coins, and the man grabbed two handfuls and put them in his arms. When others saw this, they became more enthusiastic about offering suggestions.
"Your Highness, it would be best to separate male and female customers in the spice shop. Each should have a male waiter or shop maid who knows spices well to serve them and explain the ingredients in detail to the customers. This way, sales will be better!"
"Not bad, reward!"
The man happily grabbed two handfuls of copper coins, which weighed so much that his sleeves couldn't hold them anymore.
Another person said, "Princess, these spices are commonly used by the rich and powerful, but they are a minority after all, and there are more ordinary people. If we sell the spices to ordinary people and let them use them occasionally, then they will sell like hotcakes!"
“How do you sell spices to ordinary people?”
"You can grind the leftover spices into powder and make sachets, or use them as incense on handkerchiefs and sell them!"
Someone disagreed, saying, "Spice needs to be lit to have fragrance. How can it have fragrance if it is sewn into a sachet?"
"The handkerchief will be gone in a few hours after being fumigated. The guest will definitely be angry. This won't work."
"this......"
Zhao Yuanqing smiled and said, "You all said very well. Reward."
A retainer named Wu Rong stepped forward and said, "Princess, I have a way to make spices sell for more and at a higher price, and make the fragrance last longer."
"what way?"
“If you refine spices into something like water and apply it to people, it will also give them a fragrance.”
Zhao Yuanqing became interested. "Have you made something like this before?"
"Princess, I used to be an alchemist. A few times when I was refining medicine, I found some water stains at the bottom of the furnace. They smelled fragrant. If I follow this method, maybe I can refine fragrant water, put it in a bottle, and sell it."
