On the day of the granted marriage, the daughter of a general wept and was reborn!

"How could this be so..."

Bai Lang frowned and was shocked.

"Your Majesty, this is a summary of the memorials submitted by me from various places. I will send the original memorials to the Imperial Study later."

Xia Huai'en continued.

After taking a look at the contents of the memorial, Ji Xunchuan let out a long sigh, slowly raised his head, and glanced at them with a sinister look. Bai Lang and the Minister of War suddenly fell to the ground.

"Your Majesty, I..."

boom!

Before the two of them could finish speaking, Ji Xunchuan's fist landed on the armrest.

"I really didn't know that there are still people like you in this court who confuse right and wrong!"

Ji Xunchuan's voice echoed in the hall. Upon hearing his words, everyone knelt down and said in unison: "Your Majesty, calm down."

Bai Lang was lying on the ground, his body shaking like a sieve.

After a moment of silence, Xia Huai'en's voice was heard again in the court: "Your Majesty, General Cen and Miss Shen killed the enemy on the front line and they are meritorious people. Now they are framed like this. I beg you to severely punish Bai Lang and his gang."

Ji Xunchuan pulled up a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, and then raised his eyebrows: "Xia Qing is right."

"Somebody come!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the imperial guards waiting outside the palace came up, picked up Bai Lang and others, and dragged them out of the store.

The "witness" was so timid that he fainted as soon as he raised his head.

The court returned to calm and Ji Xunchuan coughed twice.

"Cen Xiao, Shen Wantang, for your meritorious service in suppressing the uprising army in Shancheng." After a moment, Ji Xunchuan stood up and said sternly, "Give Cen Xiao, the son of Zhenbei Marquis, a thousand taels of gold, the title of General Zhongwu, and a house in the capital."

"Give Shen Wantang, the daughter of a first-rank general, a thousand taels of gold and the title of Lady Zhongwu. We won a great victory in the battle of Shancheng. I am very happy. There will be no curfew for three days. Let her celebrate with the people in the capital!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone bowed their heads and said in unison: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty."

After the court session ended, Shen Wantang quickened his pace, wanting to leave this place of trouble as quickly as possible.

"Miss Shen." Suddenly, a deep voice sounded behind her, with a long tail.

Shen Wantang stopped and slowly turned around. The man who came had white hair and beard.

"My daughter greets Prime Minister Lu." Shen Wantang bowed and managed to force a smile on her gloomy face.

Lu Mingfeng slowed down his pace, but did not respond to Shen Wantang's salute.

"Oh no, now, I should respect you as Madam Zhongwu." Lu Mingfeng spoke slowly, with a tearful smile on his face.

Shen Wantang smiled helplessly and said, "Your Majesty has mercy on me, so he gave me this title. Minister Lu, please stop teasing me."

After he finished speaking, Lu Mingfeng raised his eyelashes, glanced at the many officials who were leaving the court not far away, and snorted coldly: "But in this capital, the only woman who has been given this title is you, Shen Wantang."

The dissatisfaction in Lu Mingfeng's tone was about to burst out, and the words "I'm unhappy" were written on his face.

"However, this is your honor, and others can't ask for it." Then, Lu Mingfeng continued, "In the future, if I need your help, please don't turn me away."

"That's not right, Prime Minister Lu. I have been helping Your Majesty with all the matters concerning the world and the people. The Prime Minister is the same. Helping the Prime Minister is helping Your Majesty, and I will do anything for you."

When it comes to official rhetoric, Shen Wantang, who has lived two lifetimes, is no worse than Lu Mingfeng, the old fox.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Mingfeng sneered twice. Then he looked at Shen Wantang twice and turned and left.

Looking at Lu Mingfeng's back, the smile on Shen Wantang's face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a bottomless gloom.

"When did you get involved with that old bastard Lu Mingfeng?"

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind.

Shen Wantang regained consciousness, and the coldness in his eyes gradually disappeared.

"We just met and talked for a few words." She responded with a long sigh.

He raised his head and looked into Cen Xiao's deep eyes - but there seemed to be a hint of jealousy in those eyes.

Cen Xiao frowned and curled his lips: "When did you and Xia Huai'en meet?"

Before he opened his mouth, Shen Wantang guessed what he was going to ask. She glanced at Cen Xiao helplessly and turned away.

But Cen Xiao kept chasing after him, and kept asking, "Why don't you answer me? Are you hiding something?"

"It's broad daylight, how could I have any guilty conscience? It's General Cen who has been asking me about this matter. What is General Cen thinking?" Shen Wantang had no intention of falling into the trap. Instead, he threw the question back to Cen Xiao.

As she spoke, she couldn't help but quicken her pace, and Cen Xiao followed closely behind her, quickening his pace.

"I was just asking casually." Cen Xiao immediately made up for it.

Shen Wantang suddenly stopped and fixed his eyes: "General Cen, you have crossed the line."

Cen Xiao was slightly stunned and pursed his lips.

After leaving a few words, Shen Wantang turned around and got on the carriage.

When he got on the carriage, Shen Wantang let out a long sigh, lowered his head and frowned.

I don't know why, but in recent days, Cen Xiao seems like a different person compared to before.

Eager, and not like himself.

Thinking of this, a sudden pain swept through Shen Wantang's heart. She clutched the clothes around her chest tightly and leaned to the side, and only then did she feel relieved for a moment.

Feelings are really overbearing. Shen Wantang has tried her best to restrain herself, but she can't stop Cen Xiao's feelings from growing wildly.

It seems that a strong dose of medicine is needed.

The carriage stopped in front of the Shen Mansion, and Shen Wantang regained his consciousness.

As soon as I lifted the curtain, I saw a carriage parked not far away.

This carriage...

Shen Wantang seemed to be thinking about something, his eyes full of vigilance.

Seeing Shen Wantang getting off the car, the driver hurriedly ran forward and bowed, "Miss Shen, my master wants to see you."

Homeowner?

The vigilance in Shen Wantang's eyes still did not disappear.

"Who is the head of your family?"

Just as he finished speaking, the curtain of the carriage slowly opened a crack, and a folding fan slowly stretched out. On the fan, there was a painting in ink!

It turned out to be him.

Shen Wantang's frown disappeared, the corners of his eyes raised, and he turned to look at Qing'e beside him: "Lead this young man to the back door."

Although Qing'e was confused, she just did what Shen Wantang said.

After returning to the garden, Shen Wantang asked people to prepare tea and waited for this old friend.

"Please come this way, both of you." Qing'e's voice sounded from the side.

Shen Wantang raised her eyes, and a handsome young man appeared in front of her. He was tall but not weak.

"Lord Xia." Shen Wantang stood up.

Xia Huai'en bowed and saluted, his cold and aloof air seeming a little distant, but when he smiled indifferently, the aloofness around him disappeared.

"Miss Shen, I'm really sorry to bother you so much, but there are some things that I have to deal with. If I don't come to look for you, you will have to send someone to look for me."
