536 This is what it means to kill without spilling blood
In just the next few days, Ruan Songling had enough of the fickleness of human nature.
Those who used to beg her like dogs and lower their voices at home now mocked and ridiculed her when they saw her.
When her father’s concubine, concubine son, and concubine son’s wife saw her, they no longer showed her the respect they had in the past, and even deliberately pulled a long face.
She suffered harshly in her food and clothing needs, and even implicated her mother and brother.
Her daughter was not used to eating these and would make a fuss all day.
She had also spent quite a bit of her money.
When she went out, she met an official’s wife, who used to be extremely respectful to her, but she no longer treated her with respect.
Those who were more polite treated her coldly, and there were also those who gloated at her misfortune in front of her.
It also made her afraid of going out.
She also discovered a terrifying fact.
Without Prince Jin’s love, she and her daughter were nothing.
Thus, she had no choice but to lower her head once more.
She made two more trips to Prince Jin’s manor, but Liang Yujun still did not see her.
One day, Ruan Songling’s maidservant heard that Liang Yujun had left his manor and gone to a restaurant.
She hurriedly brought her daughter to intercept them.
This time, she was successfully brought into a private room by the guard.
Seeing the still-handsome and unbridled Liang Yujun, Ruan Songling only felt regret.
Her eyes reddened and she looked at him pitifully. “Your Highness!”
Liang Yujun’s face was filled with undisguised disgust. “Ruan Songling, have you experienced what it feels like to be a pile of mud without me? Are you here to beg me?”
Ruan Songling was embarrassed by these words and wanted to get angry, but she held it in.
She did not say anything, but Liang Mingmin cried and pounced on Prince Jin. “Father, I’m wrong. I won’t be so willful anymore.
“Just let me return to your residence.”
She was going crazy recently.
Not only was she ridiculed in her grandfather’s house, but she also suffered the same treatment when she went out.
No one would give in to her anymore, and she could no longer live as recklessly as she used to.
All the gigolo she had taken into the backyard had run away, and two of them were even more daring and came to beat her up.
On the way, the beggars even spat on her.
She really couldn’t take it anymore.
Previously, she had gone to Prince Jin’s residence to make a scene, but her father didn’t want to see her, and the butler didn’t let her in either.
Recently, she had not been eating or sleeping well, and she was also afraid.
However, before she could pounce into Prince Jin’s arms, she was stopped by his personal attendant.
Liang Yujun hated this daughter of his even more.
She was too wishy-washy and was a disgrace.
“I will never accept you again, so you’d better be good civilians.”
He knew about what had happened to her and her mother recently, so he added fuel to the fire.
He still felt that it was not enough.
How could he forgive and accept the two of them again?
Hearing this, Ruan Songling couldn’t help but kneel before Liang Yujun and cry, “Your Highness, I’m wrong. I’ve actually lost interest in Prince Yi a long time ago.
“I’ve been reflecting on myself these days, and I realized that the person I’ve always loved is you!”
She had indeed reflected on herself a lot and realized that she did have feelings for Prince Jin.
She only treated him that way because he doted on her in the past.
She didn’t want to live the life she had now.
She wanted to return to Prince Jin’s residence and live a life of luxury and respect.
So, not only did she give in, but she also lowered her head and begged him.
Liang Yujun stood up and walked over to Ruan Songling.
Ruan Songling thought that he was moved by her words and looked up at him with eyes full of love.
Liang Yujun was also thoroughly disgusted.
He reached out with the tip of his shoe and lifted her chin. “Your beauty is not even worthy for me to pour a chamber pot.
“I’ve already said that the reason why I’m so doting on you and your daughter is because I hate you. I’m deliberately raising you up to the clouds before letting you fall, so that you can have a good taste of falling into a quagmire.
“I don’t cherish your love!”
Ruan Songling looked at him in disbelief, and tears fell in large drops. Her heart was in so much pain that she was about to suffocate.
How could this be?
She regretted it.
She regretted treating Liang Yujun like that. She shouldn’t have harbored such thoughts towards Prince Yi.
She regretted acting like a tyrant in Prince Jin’s Manor and not taking anyone seriously.
Liang Yujun loathed her this way.
He thought she had a lot of self-respect and backbone, but now she’s here to beg for mercy. This was boring.
He felt more and more that he had made a bad decision back then, causing him to waste so much energy and time on this b * tch.
He then instructed, “Throw them out. In the future, wherever I am, I don’t want to see them again.”
The guards immediately obeyed the order and threw the crying and struggling pair of mother and daughter out of the restaurant.
It also let the onlookers know that Prince Jin was serious.
Ruan Songling and her daughter couldn’t stand the crowd’s mocking and could only return to the Ruan family.
Then, she was scolded by her father.
The Ruan family finally managed to gather 300000 taels of silver to send to Prince Jin’s residence within the stipulated time.
However, it also directly hurt them to the core.
Other than the old house that they were currently living in in Northern City and the 100 mu of land, they had sold all the other shops, manors, and fields.
Because of Prince Jin’s attitude, when Father Ruan went to sell his property, the price was always lowered.
He had also changed from the father-in-law of Prince Jin, who was respected by everyone in Northern City, to the father of an abandoned concubine, who was ridiculed by everyone on the streets.
He had been bullied, so he would naturally settle the score with Ruan Songling and her daughter when they returned.
Because of this, Ruan Songling and Liang Mingmin’s days were even tougher.
They only have three meals a day to fill their stomachs, not to mention seafood or exotic animals.
They didn’t even have the right to be picky.
Liang Mingmin even developed a grudge against Ruan Songling.
If it wasn’t for her mother’s shamelessness, they wouldn’t have ended up in this state.
Of course, the one she hated the most was Shi Qingluo.
Ruan Songling naturally noticed her daughter’s attitude and could not help but feel cold.
The rift between them grew.
She also hated Shi Qingluo in her heart.
Then, she listened to Liang Mingmin’s suggestion for revenge.
She let the maidservants take the jewelry and fine clothes to pawn.
The mother-daughter pair spent all their remaining money on an assassin organization in Northern City to buy Shi Qingluo’s life.
Only by killing Shi Qingluo, the person who had caused them so much trouble, would they feel comfortable.
Ten days later, Xiao Hanzheng received a message from Northern City.
He passed the news to his wife. “The former Prince Jin’s princess consort and former Princess Zhen have been in a bad state recently.”
After Shi Qingluo heard what had happened to Ruan Songling and her daughter, she smiled and said, “The two of them really deserve it.
“This is just the beginning. Prince Jin is indeed ruthless.”
Although Prince Jin’s method was a little brainless and incomprehensible, it could indeed make Ruan Songling and her daughter live in pain and regret for the rest of their lives.
After all, there was a huge difference between “becoming poor after getting rich” and “being poor” all along. At least, this would be a psychological torture.
This was what it meant to kill without spilling blood.
Then, she realized that the news also mentioned that Ruan Songling and her daughter had taken whatever money they had left and hired an assassin to kill her.
She was speechless.
“There must be something wrong with these two people’s brains.”
Xiao Hanzheng sneered. “You’re right. There’s something wrong with their brains.”
The assassin organization took the money but didn’t send anyone to kill his wife.
It was obvious that Ruan Songling and her daughter had been tricked.
It could only be said that the wicked would be tortured by the wicked, and they deserved it!
