Rebirth: The wedding night, my whole family was exiled, I raised 500,000 soldiers

As soon as Shen Lanxi walked out of the backyard, she ran into Wang Bao.

Wang Bao unfolded the imperial edict and read it out: "The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, decrees that from today onwards, the title of Princess Lan Xi is revoked. In addition, she is allowed to divorce Zhennan Prince Zhou Ruyuan. The divorce agreement has been drafted by the royal family. From now on, Zhennan Prince Zhou Ruyuan and Shen Lan Xi will no longer have any relationship. I decree this!"

Shen Lanxi knelt on the ground and took the imperial edict with both hands.

"Thank you Lord for your grace!"

Wang Bao rolled up the imperial edict and handed it to Shen Lanxi.

"His Majesty has another oral order, ordering Shen Lanxi to leave the Zhennan Palace immediately!"

Shen Lanxi replied respectfully: "I obey your command!"

Bai Qingling knelt on the ground along with everyone else in the palace, feeling overjoyed.

His Majesty took away Shen Lanxi's title and ordered her to divorce the prince? What she had been thinking about for so long actually came true so soon.

I knew that His Majesty would not be so foolish as to let anyone from the Shen family go. It's just a pity that the bitch Shen Lanxi didn't have to be exiled with her whole family.

There was a cold light in Bai Qingling's eyes, and she sneered in her heart.

"Miss Shen, do you have any valuables to pack?" Wang Bao asked casually.

Shen Lanxi understood: "I have something to tell you, sir!"

Wang Bao raised his voice and said, "His Majesty is thinking of you, otherwise he would not have sent me to personally deliver the decree!"

Shen Lanxi: "My dowry was arranged by the Shen family. Logically speaking, a woman can take her dowry away after the divorce!"

Wang Bao nodded.

"Although the incident involving the Wei Family Army in the northwest was not caused by my Shen family, my father was involved in this matter after all. Now I am willing to give all my dowry to the families of the Wei Family Army to help them settle down in their future lives!"

Wang Bao smiled and said, "My lady is righteous. I will tell your majesty everything without missing a word!"

As they were talking, the two of them walked out the door.

Wang Bao: "Young lady, please go first. I have an imperial decree to announce!"

Shen Lanxi bowed to Wang Baofu, turned around and left!

After Shen Lanxi merged into the crowd, Wang Bao re-entered the palace.

"Where is the incense table? How come the servants in the palace have no manners at all..."

……

After Shen Lanxi walked away, she made sure that no one was following her and immediately turned into the alley.

When the imperial edict was unfolded, there was a thick stack of silver bills inside, totaling 70,000 to 80,000 taels.

After putting it into the space, Shen Lanxi changed his clothes and disguised himself. When he came out of the alley, he was already a middle-aged man with an unremarkable appearance!

First, he rented an empty house from a pawnshop, and then went to the rice shop, butcher shop, grain and oil shop, grocery shop, and cloth shop, ordering a few hundred taels from each shop. In total, he visited hundreds of shops in the capital and spent nearly 60,000 taels.

I booked different delivery times, and when a merchant came, I paid the balance and put it directly into my space. I was busy until the evening, and only a few deliverymen came together, so it would not arouse suspicion!

After finishing your work, go directly to Fulai Inn to find Chunxue Qiushuang!

When she saw the two people, she didn't explain and directly showed the imperial edict to them!

"How are the things I asked you to buy going?"

Haruyuki came back to his senses and quickly replied, "Everything is ready!"

"The place of exile is Dongchuan, where the winter is bitterly cold. Go buy some winter clothes and furs tomorrow!"

"Yes!"

She told the two of them her plan: "I am going into exile with the Shen family. If you don't want to go, I will sell you your indentures and give you two thousand taels of silver each to settle down!"

Qiu Shuang hurriedly said: "Miss, we are from the Shen family, and the Shen family is our home."

Haruyuki: "Yes, yes, yes. Wherever the young lady goes, we will go!"

She still returned the indenture to the two men.

"You can follow me, and take this too. From now on you will be free!"

Chunxue Qiushuang was moved as she held the indenture contract and said, "Miss, we will always be your slaves!"

Shen Lanxi: "Have a good rest, we will set off from the city gate the day after tomorrow morning!"

The next day she gave some banknotes to Chun Xiao Qiu Shuang to buy things. After the two left, she also changed her identity and went to buy goods.

"Oh no, my lord. Everything in the storeroom is gone..."

After Wang Bao returned to the palace, he immediately brought the message to Emperor Renxiao, who was worried that the treasury was empty and had no money to pay pensions to the families of Wei's army. When he heard that Shen Lanxi was willing to offer a dowry, he immediately ordered someone to go to the palace to get it.

If the warehouse had not been opened this time, the people in Zhennan Palace would still not know that the warehouse had been stolen.

Zhou Ruyuan was ordered to reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors and was punished repeatedly. Just when he was racking his brains to figure out how to break the impasse, he was hit hard.

"what happened?"

The steward was sweating profusely in anxiety: "The palace guards came to take the king's...dowry. I opened the door of the storeroom and saw that everything inside was gone!"

Zhou Ruyuan couldn't sit still anymore.

"What about the other warehouses?"

Manager: "I haven't checked other warehouses yet."

"Go and see!"

After a while, the butler came with a pale face and reported: "My Lord, it's bad, the things in the other warehouses are also missing!"

Zhou Ruyuan rushed to the warehouse.

All the warehouses were so clean that not even a needle was left!

Bai Qingling rushed over after receiving the news, and almost fainted when she saw the empty warehouse!

"My Lord, why are the warehouses empty?"

Zhou Ruyuan's temples were throbbing with anxiety. The warehouse contained all the spoils and rewards he had obtained from fighting on the battlefields over the years. It was his entire fortune.

Now they are all gone!

"Who usually guards the warehouse? Why have all the things inside disappeared? If you don't give me an explanation today, I will beat you all to death!" Zhou Ruyuan's eyes turned red with anxiety.

All those who were responsible for guarding the warehouse, whether on duty or not, were brought to the warehouse door.

The warehouse was robbed, and they couldn't afford the compensation even if they sold their entire family!

At this point all they could do was kneel on the ground, crying and explaining hastily!

Zhou Ruyuan held a long sword and interrogated the suspect personally.

"When was the last time you opened the storeroom?"

The steward quickly replied: "It was on the day of your wedding. All the things were still there."

Bai Qingling clenched her fists with anger burning in her eyes: "It's Shen Lanxi, it must be Shen Lanxi! Otherwise, why would she say that she would present the dowry to His Majesty? She was waiting for this moment to frame the prince."

The steward wiped his sweat and asked tremblingly: "Your Majesty, the people sent by His Majesty are still waiting outside. How can we explain this to His Majesty?"

Bai Qingling said impatiently: "What else can I say? Tell the truth!"

"No!" Zhou Ruyuan rejected it outright.

The emperor is very suspicious. He would definitely not believe that the dowry was stolen. He would definitely suspect that the emperor had kept it for himself and would not give it up.

"Take out all the valuables in our house. If you don't have enough, take my post and go out to borrow!"

Bai Qingling exclaimed: "How can that be possible!"

"No need to say more, the matter has been decided. Manager Sun, Commander Wang, bring your men to investigate for me. No matter what method you use, you must get my things back for me!"

"Yes!"

Bai Qingling quickly called Commander Wang to stop.

"Commander Wang, take your men to find out where Shen Lanxi is now. Once you find out, quickly report back to the prince and me!"

Commander Wang looked at Zhou Ruyuan, who gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Go check it out!"
