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

Zhou Ruyuan was instantly annoyed when he heard the baby call for water three times in one night.

"Shen Lanxi, I was the one who let you down at the beginning, but at that time, it was you who asked my father for the divorce letter. I never thought of divorcing you!"

Shen Lanxi smiled sarcastically: "Does Your Majesty really want me to describe what happened again?"

Looking at Shen Lanxi's cold and solemn expression, Zhou Ruyuan had no doubt that Shen Lanxi would do that.

The scene from six years ago reappeared before Zhou Ruyuan. That marriage, which was talked about by everyone, made him experience the greatest humiliation in his life.

He has already been so humble, why does Shen Lanxi still keep harping on this?

"Lan Xi, do you really have no regard for any feelings at all?" Zhou Ruyuan looked at Shen Lan Xi with a hurt expression.

Wei Dongzhu frowned and reminded him, "Your Majesty, we are investigating the case now. His Majesty is urging us."

Talking about this in prison in front of everyone was disrespectful to her.

Zhou Ruyuan looked at Zhou Ruyuan with cold eyes. Although he didn't like Wei Dongzhu, he was right.

It is indeed not appropriate to talk about what happened between him and Shen Lanxi now!

"Lan Xi, I hope I can sit down with you and talk about what's going on between us."

Shen Lanxi frowned: "I don't think there was anything good between us before."

Zhou Ruyuan: "Don't be so quick to reject me. I don't think you want the people to always talk about us."

Shen Lanxi said coldly: "Are you threatening me?"

Zhou Ruyuan: "No, I just want us to sit down and talk calmly to resolve the misunderstanding from that year."

Shen Lanxi looked at him deeply and said, "Okay."

After saying that, she and Wei Dong entered the secret passage one after another.

The secret passage was quiet. Torches had been lit by people who had entered earlier, and crackling sounds were heard from time to time.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a secret passage under the Dali Temple." Shen Lanxi looked at the passage built with blue bricks. These projects were definitely not built in a day.

Wei Dongzhu was still thinking about what Zhou Ruyuan had just said. When he heard her say this, he turned his gaze to the walls around him.

“This place has been built for at least ten years.”

Shen Lanxi said firmly: "More than 30 years."

Wei Dongzhu didn't ask her how she knew it so accurately. He was just slightly surprised and his eyes fell on the wall again.

He couldn't tell.

"Then it must have existed before Your Majesty ascended the throne." Wei Dongzhu asked doubtfully.

This is also what Shen Lanxi is confused about.

"I believe His Majesty will give us an answer to this question."

Wei Dongzhu didn't understand why, so he didn't ask and just waited and saw what would happen.

The passage was long, with multiple forks in the road. When they reached the fork, Shen Lanxi suggested splitting up.

Wei Dongzhu worriedly denied: "The two groups that went there before didn't come back, so we shouldn't separate."

Shen Lanxi didn't think too much about it, as the result would probably be the same.

"it is good!"

Wei Dongzhu looked at the person in front of him and quietly walked faster.

"It's a bit dark here." Wei Dongzhu said dryly.

Shen Lanxi asked doubtfully: "Can't you see clearly at night?"

Wei Dongzhu: “A little bit.”

Shen Lanxi raised her eyebrows: "Then grab the corner of my clothes!"

As soon as the words fell, Wei Dongzhu replied with one word: "Okay!"

Shen Lanxi raised the corners of her lips silently.

The two walked for about half an hour and finally came across a door.

"Let me open it!" Wei Dongzhu stepped forward.

"Stand back a little." He warned worriedly before driving away.

Shen Lanxi stepped aside and reminded him in the same way: "Stand to the side."

If there is someone hiding behind the door, it is most dangerous to stand in the middle.

Wei Dongzhu walked to the other side and raised his hand to open the door.

There was a sudden light, and after waiting for a while and seeing no one around, Wei Dongzhu was the first to go out.

“This is an abandoned yard.”

Shen Lanxi thought to herself: As expected!

"The secret passage here is the same as the one found in the northwest."

Wei Dongzhu had already had a guess in his mind when he discovered the secret passage, and now it has been directly confirmed.

"From the northwest to the capital, they have such a huge influence!"

Shen Lanxi corrected: "It started from Dongchuan."

Wei Dongzhu glanced sideways, and after a moment he said, "Do you want to check other passages?"

Shen Lanxi shook her head: "No need, other passages should be the same as here, let's go back!"

Wei Dongzhu was not discouraged and checked the abandoned hospital again, but he didn't find anything useful, so he left in disappointment.

The guards looked at Shen Lanxi and Wei Dongzhu as if they had seen a ghost. Weren't these two people inside? How did they get out?

They clearly surrounded this place like an iron barrel!

Facing the surprised looks of the Beijing guards, Shen Lanxi and Wei Dongzhu entered the Dali Temple.

The two groups of people who went there before have returned. They were not slow, but went to other channels to explore.

Zhou Ruyuan looked at the person who came back from outside, sitting upright, his eyes fixed.

Why was he pulling at her belt?

Did Shen Lanxi have to embarrass him in front of so many people?

"Nothing was found in the secret passage. At the end of the secret passage is an abandoned courtyard in the city." Wei Dong said.

Zhou Ruyuan's face darkened: "I have ordered people to check the owners of these courtyards."

When Che Mingyuan saw Shen Lanxi coming, he immediately stepped forward and waited for instructions.

Shen Lanxi: "His Majesty is waiting for news. Is it appropriate for us to send a message to the palace that we have gained nothing?"

When she asked this question, she looked at Zhou Ruyuan.

“How should I write it?”

Shen Lanxi: "Where are the Dali Temple construction drawings?"

Che Mingyuan had already found it and was just waiting to present it to him.

"Send the blueprints to the palace and write that the secret passage was built more than 30 years ago. I'm not sure if it's related to the previous dynasty."

Zhou Ruyuan was silent for a moment and then nodded: "Just write it, I will personally deliver it to the palace!"

Shen Lanxi: "Whether the secret passage should be sealed or not, it is up to His Majesty to decide."

Zhou Ruyuan stood up and left. When he passed by Wei Dongzhu, his eyes were as sharp as a knife.

"Let's go and rest, tomorrow will probably be even busier!"

Shen Lanxi did not go to the Shen Mansion, but returned to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion to rest.

Shen Congwen waited until midnight but his daughter did not come. He was so angry that when he went to court the next day, blisters appeared at the corners of his mouth.

The matter of the Dali Temple discovering the secret passage was suppressed by Emperor Renxiao. When attending court, no one mentioned the Dali Temple, let alone the secret passage.

After retiring from court, Emperor Renxiao kept Shen Lanxi and Zhou Ruyuan.

"What I am about to tell you is a palace secret. Anyone who tells it outside will be charged with treason!"

Shen Lanxi: "I will keep this a secret and will never let anyone else know."

Zhou Ruyuan: "I will not let the fourth person know."

Emperor Renxiao sighed quietly, as if he was reminiscing about the past.

"That secret passage must have been built by an emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Only the emperor knew about the secret passage throughout the dynasties!"

When Emperor Renxiao said this, a serious gloom flashed across his face.

"When I was appointed to this position in a time of crisis, the late emperor passed away before he could tell me about the secret passage. Therefore, I have no way of knowing about the secret passage!"

That’s strange. Even His Majesty doesn’t know, so how do others know?
