報(bào)夫仇
jane de belleville was a french noblewoman. in 1343, when her husband, oliver, was beheaded by the king of france on unauthenticated suspicion of treason, jane sold off her estates, bought three warships, and took to the english channel. she proceeded to hunt down french ships, and was utterly merciless with the crews of the ships she captured.
jane also made several descents on normandy, whose inhabitants saw this beautiful woman, with a sword in one hand and a torch in another, eyeing with pleasure all the horrors of her misplaced revenge.
in 1356, jane retired from piracy to marry an english lieutenant. she eventually returned to france, and in 1359 died there, near the land she and her beloved oliver had once owned.
