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

It was time for Shen Lanxi's daily patrol again, with Chunxiaqiushuang carrying her stick behind her.

Every few steps along the way, you could hear soldiers shouting about the garrison system.

"Anyone who fights in the guard post will be beheaded!"

"Anyone who gambles in the guardhouse will have his hands chopped off!"

"Those who commit crimes for the sake of beauty will be castrated, and the victim will chop the perpetrators into pieces!"

"Anyone who leaves his post without permission will be killed!"

"Those who disobey orders will be killed!"

"If you insult others, your tongue will be pulled out and your ears will be cut off!"

……

After reading it all over again, there was not a single body left intact!

All the soldiers were so tense that they dared not even breathe. They kept their skin tightly stretched until Shen Lanxi walked away, then they quickly breathed in fresh air!

The new recruits had never seen Shen Lanxi's killing spree, so when they saw his appearance, they felt very disapproving.

After seeing Shen Lanxi sitting on the tiger-skin throne and knocking five strong men away with a stick in one hand, they all became obedient.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, most of the snow has melted, and spring is here in Dongchuan!

There are two more things to do every day: preparations before farming and preparations for building a military fort!

Wang Songbai came that day.

"Sir, I want to go to Suiyuan Prefecture to find out about my sister and brother-in-law!"

Shen Lanxi agreed directly: "Go!"

This surprised Wang Songbai. They let him go so easily. Aren't they afraid that he would tell others what happened here?

Wang Songbai waited for a while, and when he saw that Shen Lanxi had no other instructions, he left nervously!

"Brother Wu, let our people follow him. If he talks nonsense, he won't have to come back!"

Feng Wu nodded!

……

After Shen Conglian returned home from vacation, he conveyed Shen Lanxi's exact words.

"Mother, what do you mean by Lan Xi?" Shen Conglian was a little confused.

They could understand why Lan Xi was not close to them. After all, she was brought to the palace since she was a child and raised by the Queen Mother.

Previously, they had been escorted all the way back to Dongchuan, and they had lived in peace without provoking her. But she had started promoting her family members, and now she was concerned about the family's reproduction, which made them a little confused.

"Hmph, what else can it mean. Only our Shen family is prosperous and can help her. Does she think that she can control so many men under her? Those people only see that our Shen family has many men." Old Madam Shen looked as if she had seen through everything.

Shen Conglian felt that that was not the case. Before he pulled them back, Lan Xi was still doing well, right?

Didn't they take the initiative to find Lan Xi?

"Second brother, how is the guard post? Are you tired?" Shen Congyi couldn't help but asked.

As soon as Shen Conglian heard him say this, he knew what he meant.

"It's fine. I just sit in the house and drink tea every day and copy down the list of soldiers who have joined the army."

Shen Congyi's eyes lit up: "Where's the third brother? What did he do there?"

Shen Conglian: "He was also recruiting soldiers. I lived far away from him, so I only met him once. After that, he received a cotton-padded jacket and went to another county to recruit soldiers!"

Shen Congyi's eyes were like a ruler, measuring Shen Conglian from top to bottom. Not only did the second brother not get frostbite, he also gained some weight and his face became more moisturized.

Mr. Shen sighed and said, "All the relatives we had in the capital city broke off the engagement because our family fell into trouble."

When Old Madam Shen thought of those women who had once surrounded her and tried to curry favor with her, her face darkened.

"Those are all mean people who curry favor with the powerful. It's just right to cancel the engagement. Let us see their character clearly. Our Shen family will not marry with mean and evil people!" Old Lady Shen was so angry that her blood boiled when she thought of how she looked when she left the capital.

Those people just took the opportunity to disgust her and humiliate her. Now that her Shen family has risen again, it’s time for those people to cry!

Those who broke off the relationship with them must have felt extremely regretful when they thought about their children and grandchildren returning to the capital city after achieving success in the future.

Thinking of this, Madam Shen clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.

"Sons, you must do your best. Our Shen family depends on you!" Old Madam Shen said earnestly.

Shen Conglian glanced at his mother who was about to go crazy, and asked tentatively: "Mother, Yuanxu is already twenty years old this year. It's a pity that the previous Wu didn't have any children. We can find a better one for Yuanxu!"

Liu got angry when she thought of Wu: "Bah, that Wu is sickly, she has been married for more than two years and has no children, and she doesn't allow me to take a concubine. If she wasn't the legitimate daughter of the Left Prime Minister, I would have asked Yuan Xu to divorce her long ago!"

Shen Conglian said impatiently: "We've already divorced, why are you still talking about her? I think the divorce is good. I used to think she would do something naughty, but she didn't dare to do it because of her relationship in the palace. With her, if we fall into her hands when we are old, nothing good will come of it!"

Old Madam Shen didn't want to mention Wu anymore, so she interrupted him quickly.

"Yuanxu has grown up. It's all our fault that we have been so busy settling down these days that we have delayed the children's important matters!"

Mr. Shen thought for a while and said, "It's hard to find a wife, so let's find two concubines for Yuan Xu first, and quickly expand our Shen family!"

Liu muttered, "How can you take a concubine before marrying your wife?"

Old Madam Shen glared at her and said, "You have long hair but little knowledge. If you want to find a wife, shouldn't you find someone who is of equal status and can help our Yuan Xu?"

Liu's eyes lit up and she nodded quickly.

"Mother is right!"

Madam Shen thought about it and felt disgusted.

"Our Shen family is about to rise, and we don't know how far Yuan Xu and his friends can go. If they can achieve great things and be granted titles and become prime ministers in the future, and their wives are the daughters of minor officials..." Old Madam Shen shook her head when she thought of this.

It's not a good match!

Liu: "No, I will be a general in the future. I don't want to bring a daughter from a small family to embarrass my people!"

Miao: "Mother, although Yuan Peng and Yuan Hao have not been engaged before, they have discussed marriage. They also need you to arrange it for them."

Tian Shi was not to be outdone and hurriedly said, "Mother, there are also children from our fourth room."

Old Madam Shen was so annoyed by the quarrels between her three daughters-in-law that her head ached.

"All of you shut up. This is a matter concerning the addition of a new member to our Shen family. I have to discuss this matter with your father. Those who are ugly, sick, or have a bad reputation in their family, don't even think about entering our house!"

Everyone in the room nodded quickly.

……

Knock, knock, knock, there was a knock on the door.

Shen Lanxi: "Come in!"

Liu Yan came back with a paper bag.

"I passed by a tea shop on my way to Fuchun County two days ago and happened to run into..." Liu Yan's eyes fell on the pottery jar in the middle of the table and she couldn't say the rest.

Shen Lanxi: "What happened? Why don't you say anything?"

Liu Yanhui subconsciously hid the paper package in her sleeve.

"It's okay, I..." Liu Yan made up her mind and took out the paper bag again.

"I came across a pack of good tea, Mingqian Longjing!"

Shen Lanxi: "You and Hu Zhu bought it at the same store, right?"

Liu Yan raised her eyebrows and said awkwardly: "It's possible!"

Shen Lanxi: "I poured some for the kitchen to make Longjing shrimps, and the jar just happened to be empty!"

As she spoke, she extended her hand toward Liu Yanhui.
