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

One was speaking in anger, and the other was willing to fight to the end. Emperor Renxiao felt that he could only be a good person.

"Yuan Xu, marriage is not a joke, don't act rashly!"

"Prime Minister, please do not act impulsively."

"I will give you two more days to negotiate privately. After two days, no matter what decision you make, I will agree to it!"

Courtiers: "Your Majesty is wise and kind."

Emperor Renxiao finally smiled.

The welcoming banquet was neither exciting nor bland, allowing Shen Yuanxu and Wu Yanzhi to steal the limelight.

After the court was dismissed, Zhou Ruyuan, looking depressed, was called by Emperor Renxiao to be lectured.

……

Shen Lanxi and Shen Yuanxu returned to the Shen residence together, and Wei Dongzhu also followed them.

"Lan Xi, do you think His Majesty has let down his guard against us?" Shen Yuanxu asked in a low voice.

Shen Lanxi was not 100% sure, so she would not give a definite answer.

"It's not easy to get rid of your vigilance. The next priority is the Spring Examination for our Shen family's sons."

Shen Yuanxu looked at the people walking in front of him with hesitation, if he was really worried that Emperor Renxiao would be wary, why didn't he let Yuan Jing and Yuan Qing take off their armor and study together?

There are two major events happening in the Shen Mansion right now.

The first matter has been resolved, which is Shen Yuanxu's marriage. The second matter is the Spring Examination.

When Shen Congwen heard that Shen Yuanxu was going to study for the imperial examination, he was very excited. So what if he became a military commander? In the end, he would come back to take the imperial examination again.

In his opinion, those Shen family members who joined the army were forced by the situation and would eventually come back to take the imperial examinations.

Shen Lanxi delayed Yuan Jing and the others. If they had stayed in Beijing to study instead of going to the northwest, they would have definitely been on the list of the special examination this time.

What a pity!

When Shen Congwen saw Shen Yuanxu coming back, he frowned at first, but then he thought it was not too late for him to study now, so he still gave him some advice.

"Since you will be taking the imperial examination in the future, you should go out less and study more."

Shen Congwen was not on the list of guests for the welcoming banquet today, so no one knows what happened.

Shen Yuanxu responded vaguely, and only after all the family members gathered in the evening did he recount in detail what had happened that day.

Old Madam Shen’s headache was about to explode; her family had become enemies with the Prime Minister’s family.

Liu didn't dare to say a word now and kept her head down the whole time. Unfortunately, no matter how much she tried to reduce her presence, Madam Shen still took her anger out on her.

"Liu, I punish you by grounding you for a month and copying scriptures in the ancestral hall for an hour every day."

Liu's expression changed immediately. She had never held a pen in her life.

No matter how Liu dragged him under the table, Shen Conglian would not beg for mercy.

Yuanxu's marriage was ruined.

"Lan Xi, you are smart, think of a solution quickly. You can't let Yuan Xu really wait until a little kid grows up before getting married, right?" Although he has no shortage of sons, and will definitely have no shortage of grandchildren in the future, he would be sorry for his son if he did this.

Shen Lanxi looked at Shen Yuanxu, who said calmly: "Men in the Shen family are not allowed to take concubines. Let's talk about this later~"

After hearing this, Liu felt completely hopeless and began to cry.

Old Madam Shen is old and doesn't like to see others cry, especially those who cry at funerals like Liu.

“Shut up. If you don’t know what to do, just go and kneel in the ancestral hall. When you understand everything, stand up again!” He howled like a funeral spree, and all the good luck in the family was gone.

Liu really couldn't control herself and really didn't want to kneel in the ancestral hall, so she quickly turned around, covered her face and ran away.

Two days later, no one from the Wu family came, and the Shen family did not go to the Wu family either.

On the third day, Emperor Renxiao granted Shen Yuanxu a marriage, and the time was set very hastily, to take place at the end of the month, with only ten days left.

After receiving the imperial edict, Liu began to cry every day.

When Mrs. Shen thought about how she had to arrange such a marriage for her grandson at such an old age, her face became colder day by day, and the corners of her mouth almost drooped to her chin.

After receiving the imperial edict, Shen Yuanxu openly stated that although the time was short, no respect could be lost for the Wu family's legitimate daughter.

From the engagement letter to the letter of engagement, gift letter, and wedding letter, everything is included.

All the old and young members of the Shen family joined the battle, and even Shen Lanxi was assigned to deliver the betrothal gifts.

Of course, everyone knew that going to the Wu family was something unlucky that most people wouldn't do. If it were someone else, being sarcastic would still be fine, and scolding and beating would be within reason.

Old Madam Shen felt sorry for the male members of her family and was afraid that they would be bullied or humiliated if they went there, so she could only let her granddaughter, who could support the family, go.

Shen Lanxi brought Wei Dongzhu with her. Both of them were dressed in festive attire. They played music and danced all the way and took a detour to arrive at the Wu Mansion.

When they arrived, the long procession of betrothal guests was already filled with people watching the fun.

Shen Lanxi got off the horse and clasped her fists with a look of joy on her face.

"Today, I, Shen Lanxi, am here to propose marriage on behalf of Shen Yuanxu, a disciple of the second branch of the Shen family."

"Shen Yuanxu is young and promising, talented in both literature and martial arts, and has a handsome appearance. He is lucky to marry the daughter of Prime Minister Wu. The two of them are a match made in heaven, and they will surely create a good story in the future!"

Wei Dongzhu and others listened with smiles on their faces, and from time to time they scattered some wedding money for the people to grab.

It was the first time in the lives of the common people that they saw a woman presiding over a betrothal ceremony, and they heard such shocking statements. For a moment, they did not know how to react.

It was not until Shen Lanxi entered the gate of the Wu Mansion that the people outside reacted.

"Why do these words sound so strange?"

"How can she, a woman, say such things?"

"Keep your voice down. Have you forgotten her bad reputation?" Although I have never seen Shen Lanxi kill anyone with my own eyes, after hearing her say that, I can already imagine the title of the Female Butcher of the Northwest.

Emperor Renxiao personally issued an edict that even if Wu Yanzhi was reluctant, he had to stay at home and preside over the marriage of his daughter.

After hearing that Shen Yuanxu was marrying her daughter, Liang couldn't stop crying.

She had been under house arrest two days ago. If it had not been inappropriate for her to be absent today when the Shen family proposed marriage, Wu Yanzhi would not have let her out.

"Cry, cry, cry. If you keep crying, go back to your room and never step out of your room again!"

If it was a threat like this in the past, Liang would have been scared long ago. But today, Liang relied on the fact that it was the day of the engagement and she couldn't be without him. After waking up, she hadn't stopped crying.

"Master, how can you be so cruel? Our daughter is only three months old, how can she get married?" It was all her fault that she was too cautious and planned too late, allowing that little bitch Wu Tingtan to take advantage of her.

"My poor daughter..."

Wu Yanzhi's veins were throbbing as he listened, and he was on the verge of collapse.

"Master, someone from the Shen family is coming!"

Wu Yanzhi said angrily with a dark face: "Open the door to welcome the guests!"

"Yes!"

When Wu Yanzhi learned that it was Shen Lanxi who came, his face became even darker.

"Master, the Shen family doesn't take you seriously at all. For such a big matter, they sent an unmarried woman here. The Shen family is clearly bullying our Wu family. We should not marry our legitimate daughter to Shen Yuanxu. We should marry a concubine's daughter!" Liang said everything in one go as if she had grabbed the last straw.
